The Bungalow, ready to accommodate and entertain this festive season

This year’s festive season however is not what South Africans are accustomed to. People have had to grapple with the Covid-19 pandemic which has left a trail of devastation. The good news however is that South Africa has made great strides in containing the impact of this pandemic. These strides and efforts have made it possible for the festive season to be experienced under relaxed conditions with decreased risk in many parts of the country.

This therefore means that South Africa’s tourism travel destinations are gearing up for an influx of local and international travellers who are keen to escape the limitations and nightmare of the pandemic in various geographical areas. It is expected this year that foreign tourists from the northern hemisphere will be looking forward to experiencing a warm festive season on the shores of South Africa.

Local tourists on the other hand will be catching planes, trains, buses and driving across the country to physically connect with their loved ones and catch some fresh air and get over the stress and frustrations which came about because of Covid-19.

One reputable and first-class accommodation venue which has invested its time, expertise and resources in hosting local and international travellers is the Bungalow. The Bungalow, a luxury 5-star bed and breakfast right on the water’s edge at Hobie Beach is the perfect mix of luxury and sun, sea and sand – that will tick all the boxes. The Bungalow is located on Hobie Beach near Central Beach in the idyllic town Plettenberg Bay.

It is for this reason that this facility has been designed and equipped to offer luxury accommodation and live up to its reputation as a first-choice host for ocean lovers and adventure seekers on a short or long terms basis. This beachside luxury boutique accommodation offers a rare opportunity for visitors to experience Western Cape in a cosy, secure and affordable place.

Some of the features which cause a huge number of tourists to return for more include sea-facing viewing decks which are shaded under indigenous Milkwood trees and share the spotlight with a funky plunge pool, basking in the summer sun beneath a sprawling upper deck overlooking the entire bay. There is also a tranquil, private area on the rock cliff-face side of the establishment for more intimate gatherings with a cosy fire boma area which is perfect for entertaining. There are several relaxation areas where you can enjoy an afternoon nap or a good book while chilling on the veranda to the soothing sounds of the waves crashing on the beach.

The Bungalow offers a wide range of room options which includes The Lookout, The wedge, Hobie, The spot, Cliff-side 1, Cliff-side 2 and Cliff-side 3. The Lookout has a Queen bed and an en-suite bathroom with a shower with sliding doors opening up to a private patio and a spectacular view of Hobie Beach.

The Wedge and the Hobie provide great views of the sea and also offers a Queen bed and an en-suite bathroom with a shower. Sliding doors open up to a private patio.

The spot is a self-catering accommodation which is ideal for families. This accommodation has a Queen bed with an en-suite bathroom and 4 single pods also with a bathroom. There is an open plan lounge and fully equipped kitchenette. Sliding doors open up to a private deck with braai facilities.

Cliff-side 1, 2 have 2 rooms and a separate bathroom with a shower, Cliff side 3 is one room with en-suite bathroom. This is the best luxury accommodation Plettenberg Bay has to offer.

The Bungalow does not fit into a boring destination and accommodation host with nothing more than the beautiful rooms. There are a whole lot of activities to do around this accommodation. This includes animal attractions, beach, bird watching, boating, cycling, fishing, golfing, gym, hiking, kayaking, nature pool, nature walks, restaurants, shopping, sun bathing, swimming, surfing, water sports, whale watching, etc. Your dietary needs are well catered for by well trained personnel.
