We had to go to bed and sleep with constraint scratching and sliding noises, that was terrible. When we brought it to the attention of the team, they didn’t even bother apologising. The dinning experience over dinner and breakfast was terrible - worst service I’ve seen for a while and average food (it’s quite expensive considering its surroundings). Stay away! The place itself is beautiful, well equipped and has nice facilities, it’s a shame that the staff is so untrained. ##### Ido ### 10/10 Excellent #### Karolina 6 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Equipe incrível, lugar lindo ##### Karolina Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mathew 15 Mar 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A gem with an amazing view (and great restaurant)!

But our arrival at Emily Moons blew this theory out of the water! From the attractive entrance we knew we had chosen somewhere special and the warm welcome at Reception confirmed this. We were shown to our river lodge which was spacious,beautifully furnished and luxurious with so many thoughtful touches that it’s hard to list them all. Candles, pool/beach towels in a basket we could take with us on a day out, umbrellas, a torch, and plentiful supplies in the bathroom as well as fresh milk in the fridge, replenished daily. Oh, and the view! The lodges have been cleverly positioned so none are overlooked. From your balcony deck The Bijou river winds seaward providing ever changing bird life with each tide. So that’s the accommodation. Now to the food. Breakfast is two fold and plentiful. You can order a selection of cooked breakfasts and also there is a bountiful buffet full of every type of fruit, cereal, fresh bread, jam, muffins, mini quiche to suit all tastes. As a guest you are automatically reserved an evening table at Emily’s restaurant. If you wish to dine elsewhere or in Simon’s bar above, where they serve tasty wood fired pizzas, they will release your table for resale. The Food is top notch and the staff are fantastic. We loved every minute of our stay here. Thoroughly recommend. ##### Tristan Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 26 Dec 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Gardenroute Die Lage des Hotels ist super. Das Essen im Restaurant ist ausgezeichnet. Es wird nur alles sehr schnell reserviert und es geht sehr hektisch zu. Das Servicepersonal wirkt sehr unorganisiert.Das Frhstück ist exzellent. Nur insgesamt müsste das Hotel mal rundum erneuert werden. Es sei denn, man liebt den Vintage Style. Zimmer war gemütlich, jedoch waren nachts im Dach ständig Tiere unterwegs (Mäuse etc.) Dadurch war der Schlaf sehr beeinträchtigt ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Zach, Oakland, CA 13 Nov 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Fantastic spot!

What a great view.Good to have a real fire for chilly evenings. Food in restaurant top rated. ##### Dennis ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dario, Como 29 Aug 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Romanticismo e benessere.. Che dire.. STUPENDO! Ho regalato una notte alla mia compagna in questa struttura, tutto perfetto. Camera enorme e rifinita con gusto.. camino interno con legna in abbonzanza, bagno con vasca, doccia e due lavandini.. candele ovunque.. terrazza vista fiume e divano dove godere di momenti di relax. Ripeto, la perfezione. Abbiamo anche goduto della cena e colazione, entrambe di altissimo livello. Il prezzo non è dei più economici, in tutta onestà caro per la realtà sudafricana ma ampiamente affrontabile se paragonato agli std italiani. Vale sicuramente una notte o più, regalo o altro non ve ne pentirete! ##### Dario ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 4 Feb 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Charming high quality with fabulous views Very relaxing stay, superb location and bags of character ##### Verified traveller ### 10/10 Excellent #### Richard 30 Jan 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Top. Sehr empfehlenswert. Wunderschön gelegenes Hotel an einer Flussbiegung. Super Küche und tolles Ambiente. Sehr empfehlenswert. ##### Richard ### 10/10 Excellent #### Knowatall, Jackson, WY 22 Jun 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Over the Moon! Beautiful, cozy hotel, close to Plettenberg Bay. The place is quiet, welcoming (great staff and ownership), and superbly outfitted in the rooms. The food is excellent. My only complaint was that we there in winter, so the day was too short to truly enjoy sundowners outside. I imagine that in the summer it is beyond exquisite. ##### Knowatall ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Villa Sol](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Wilderness-Hotels-Villa-Sol.h38806067.Hotel-Information) > > [Aquila Private Game Reserve & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Touws-River-Hotels-Aquila-Private-Game-Reserve-Spa.h6347327.Hotel-Information) > > [Santos Express Train Lodge - Hostel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mossel-Bay-Hotels-Santos-Express-Train-Lodge-Hostel.h8966799.Hotel-Information) > > [Knysna Tonquani Lodge & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Knysna-Hotels-Knysna-Tonquani-Lodge-Spa.h3024396.Hotel-Information) > > [The Cascades Hotel at Sun City Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sun-City-Hotels-The-Cascades-Hotel-At-Sun-City-Resort.h9515.Hotel-Information) > > [Selborne Golf Estate, Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pennington-Hotels-First-Group-Selborne-Golf.h4329711.Hotel-Information) > > [Montpellier De Tulbagh](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tulbagh-Hotels-Montpellier-De-Tulbagh.h15426199.Hotel-Information) > > [On The Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Durban-North-Hotels-On-The-Beach.h100470383.Hotel-Information) > > [Knysna Lodge Self Catering Accommodation](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Knysna-Hotels-Knysna-Lodge-Self-Catering-Accommodation.h39461007.Hotel-Information) > > [White Water Farm](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stanford-Hotels-White-Water-Farm.h13131137.Hotel-Information) > > [Margate Beach Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Margate-Hotels-Margate-Beach-Club.h9458217.Hotel-Information) > > [Kuganha Luxury Tented Camp](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Breede-River-Hotels-Kuganha-Tented-Camp.h36060545.Hotel-Information) > > [Rukiya Safari Camp](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hoedspruit-Hotels-Rukiya-Safari-Camp.h18302655.Hotel-Information) > > [Vuyani River Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hoedspruit-Hotels-Vuyani-Tented-Camp-All-Inclusive.h57157744.Hotel-Information) > > [Vuyani Safari Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hoedspruit-Hotels-Vuyani-Safari-Lodge-All-Inclusive.h36961786.Hotel-Information) > > [The Palace of the Lost City at Sun City Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sun-City-Hotels-The-Palace-Of-The-Lost-City-At-Sun-City-Resort.h392096.Hotel-Information) > > [Dolphin View Cabanas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Umdloti-Hotels-Dolphin-View-Cabanas.h10410615.Hotel-Information) > > [Sanbona Wildlife Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Barrydale-Hotels-Sanbona-Wildlife-Reserve.h1155735.Hotel-Information) > > [Travellers Rest](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Prince-Albert-Hotels-Travellers-Rest.h16126269.Hotel-Information) > > [Pumba Private Game Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Grahamstown-Hotels-Pumba-Private-Game-Reserve.h2319463.Hotel-Information) > > [Kwa Maritane Self-Catering Chalets](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pilanesberg-National-Park-Hotels-Kwa-Maritane-Self-Catering-Chalets.h22471915.Hotel-Information) > > [Sun City Hotel and Casino](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sun-City-Hotels-Soho-Hotel-Casino-At-Sun-City-Resort.h527184.Hotel-Information) > > [Gondwana Tented Eco Camp](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mossel-Bay-Hotels-Gondwana-Tented-Eco-Camp.h31869455.Hotel-Information) > > [The Cabanas Hotel at Sun City Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sun-City-Hotels-The-Cabanas-Hotel-At-Sun-City-Resort.h9459.Hotel-Information) > > [Mdluli Safari Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kruger-National-Park-Hotels-Mdluli-Safari-Lodge.h38870272.Hotel-Information) > > [Sebatana Private Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Vaalwater-Hotels-Sebatana-Private-Reserve.h32459379.Hotel-Information) > > [Ruby Rose](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Riebeeck-West-Hotels-Ruby-Rose.h22647891.Hotel-Information) > > [Arabella Hotel Golf & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kleinmond-Hotels-Arabella-Hotel-Golf-Spa.h696005.Hotel-Information) > > [Coot Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stanford-Hotels-Spookhuis-Cottages.h15943940.Hotel-Information) ---
