Dear Keziah,
Thank you so much for the lovely review. We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay with us and look forward to hosting you again. You really made the most of the area during your visit. I know going up the river was a highlight, I hope your walk on Robberg was just as good. All the very best with your new little ginger kitten, we hope she gives you both years of joy. Thank you so much for the absolutely delicious lamb potjie, please send us the recipe!
Warm regards, Pete and Karin

Make sure you take waterproof shoes for when it rains. That was our only problem. But easily solvable if you can quickly buy a pair of shoes in town. WiFi is spotty, but you are aware of that when you book. We enjoyed the tranquility.

Quiet and nice.
It was very nice and peaceful, exactly what one needs. The WiFi passwords given would not work. The bath wasn't clean and the beds upstairs looked like someone had been lying on them, but that was fixed. If they could change something, they could put a little more lighting around the pool for people visiting the lapa and walking to the houses, because it's very dark.

We apologise profusely that you found the bath dirty and the beds were not pristine, I will certainly take it up with our team as we expect nothing short of excellence for our guests.
We do have spotlights around the pool and under the cabin that you stayed in facing the pool. In future we will show guests how to switch them all on.

Slightly disappointed.
Very nice in forest-like part, pool and environment very clean. Unfortunately, parking is far from unit which, despite availability of trolleys, makes taking luggage to unit difficult. Unit itself smelled musty when we opened it and appeared dusty inside. Little to no Telkom cell phone signal and available WiFi not as desired. This made communication with children/grandchild difficult. Reception was warm and staff helpful. Unfortunately, my wife fell ill and we had to evacuate, 4 hours after our arrival, back to Despatch. Taking luggage by trolley to the unit on the grassy knoll was not difficult.

We had a very nice stay. The children really enjoyed playing with the sheepdogs. The goats came to drink water at the pond, which was right in front of our little house. If you want to get away from the city noise, this is definitely the place to be. It's also very close to Elephant Sanctuary, Puzzle Park, Monkeyland, Jukani, Wolf Sanctuary, Snake Sanctuary and many more.

Peaceful atmosphere among the trees, feeling like you are in a forest. Have a good time at the braai.
The log cabins and bedding were clean and the beds comfortable. The environment was peaceful and the forest felt like you were one with nature. Felt very at home. The presence of the goats was also cute. But unfortunately the cottages need upgrading especially the bathrooms. The Honeymoon unit is beautiful and well equipped, but it smells very musty inside. I would like to recommend the units but due to the state of the bathrooms, I can't.

Plett Forest Cabins & Wedding Venue 's response
Dear Izak
Thank you for taking the time out to review our little bit of paradise.
Yes, parking is situated 175m away from the cabins, this is to ensure our guests and our deer are safe at all times.
We do notify guests that the parking is not at the cabins in all our correspondence. We also supply guests with luggage trollies to make it easier to transport luggage.
Unfortunately, as you know, we are in a dip and surrounded by trees. We are just as frustrated as you are at the cellphone signal on the property, which ironically is strongest at the pool, very close to where you stayed. The strongest WiFi signal is closer to the main house. This too is in all our correspondence with guests.
I am however concerned at the 2 rating you have given us for location, cleanliness, value for money and customer service and the 3 for security. We welcome every bit of constructive criticism so that we can improve our service to you our guest and would be very happy if you would please send us an email letting us know what you found to be unacceptable.
Much appreciated.
Kind regards

The honeymoon cabin is really a good choice for 2 people to rest in a peaceful atmosphere. We really enjoyed it, especially the cold pool right in front of our cabin. The only negative aspect is that you cannot stop near your cabin and therefore have to carry all your necessities or drive up with the carts they give you.

Incredibly beautiful destination that offers rest for the soul.
We lived with our two little girls in the Olive Leaf family Cabin. Upon our arrival we were very warmly received by the owner. We arrived there very late in the dark and she personally helped us to our place and explained the accommodation to us well and helped us herself with a flashlight. The Cabins are beautifully secluded between green grass and green trees and are very tidy inside with everything needed. The deer on the property also awaited us and made their appearance every day to greet us. We had a cozy stay and although we enjoyed a lot of privacy, the owner and staff were always available if we needed anything. Thank you very much for a wonderful time.

Dear Yolandi,
We appreciate your time to write this review and are happy to know that you were pleased with the standard, quality and cleanliness of our Cabins. It is only through reviews like yours that we are able to improve our standards. As the owners, we have set ourselves high standards to ensure we meet our guest's expectations.
As a Honeymoon Cabin guest, you would appreciate that the cut off time on the swimming pool is to ensure that the 30 other guests staying at the resort don't spend hours at the pool disrupting your peace.
We have numerous games available for guests to loan as well as a library of over 400 DVD's to choose from.
Unfortunately, we do not have the space for a games room or pub on the property, we often recommend guests to travel to the Bush Pub down the road from the property.
Hope to welcome you back to the lodge in the near future.
Warm regards,
Karin

Ideal place for the family to use as a home base and explore the area.
The cabins are neat, clean, well equipped and very cosy. Ideal as a home base for some driving around. The staff are friendly and helpful. The vehicles are parked far from the cabins, but we were never worried about the safety. The only part that bothered us is the condition of the wooden floors. Someone above 120kg may step right through the floor. The whole cabin moves when someone walks around the cabin. The children loved the place and couldn't wait to go back to our log cabin in the afternoons.

Disappointing!
"Forest cabins" are for honeymooners, families get wendy cabins 30 yards from the street. There is no distinction made on the ads! Wendy cabins are unstable when you move around in them. So-called "Forest Trail" is just as unsafe, it's loose boards thrown on the descent that are strewn with loose leaves! The photos are not recent at all. Maintenance is not high on the priority list. I have to choose stars if I want to comment here, 1 star is too much.

Dear Marius,
We appreciate your time to write this review.
It is only through reviews like yours that we are able to improve our standards. As the owners, we have set ourselves high standards to ensure we meet our guest's expectations.
On arrival you advised that you were not happy with the cabin that you chose, advising that you were under the impression that you had booked a Honeymoon cabin.
I checked all correspondence and you had in fact chosen a standard family cabin, requesting at least two bedrooms, which the standard family cabin has. Each photograph on the site clearly states what type of cabin it is.
We were unable to move you to the Honeymoon Cabin as we were fully booked and the cabins can only accommodate 2 adults and 2 small children.
We painted the cabin in November 2018, just after having replaced the kitchen cupboards and the ceiling in the lounge.
In the 8 days you stayed here, no problems were brought to our attention for us to immediately rectify.
All three standard family cabins are backed on the forest, facing the road, unfortunately with progress comes change.
When the road was tarred, we lost a depth of two meters running right across the front of our property and with it 60 full grown trees, in addition all the full grown trees were removed alongside the road way. We have planted 320 trees to date but they will take awhile to grow.
We have taken note of your comments about our walkway in the forest and any problems will be addressed immediately.
We normally direct our guests and our many returning guests through the gate at the pool to our neighbours property where they have enjoyed the bird life, the forest and the peace and tranquility.
Our property is advertised as rustic and our rates, which have not been increased in 2 years, are on par with and in most cases lower than similar accommodation establishments in Plett.
The weather during the 8 days that you were here was fantastic, we trust that your Holiday in Plettenberg Bay was enjoyable.
Kind regards, Karin

Delicious.
Being able to feed the goats was incredible for my children. One disadvantage was that it is directly next to the main road and where we wanted to escape from the rush of cars and noises we were right next to the main road where you hear lorries and cars every minute. That was the only thing that was detrimental.

My staff and husband welcomed your entire family onto our property while I was in town. Your cousin and his family were included in this welcoming.
The adults partied outside at the braai on Friday and Saturday night until very late and you and your cousins kids were entertained and given food to feed the deer on Friday and Saturday evening, and they then spent the whole of Saturday afternoon and Sunday from early morning until 12 noon when you left, fishing little fishes out of our pond and moving them into the dam. Both my husband and I were with them the entire time, not even 10 m away from your cabin.
My kids still commented when you all left that this was a holiday that your kids will never forget, as they had an absolute ball.

I am so terribly sorry that Mr & Mrs Ferriera did not enjoy their stay with us and for the inconvenience they experienced, Mr & Mrs Ferriera were not charged beyond the deposit that they paid.
I am even more sorry that Mr & Mrs Ferriera did not immediately come to me and tell me that the metal pin holding the toilet handle had broken or that the outside light bulb had gone out - this would have taken 5 minutes to repair.
The one towel out of the 18 brand new towels that were in the room has been sent back to the supplier.
The only mark that we could find on all of the bedding in the rooms was laundry marker on the hem.

Dear Ray,
We are so sorry that you did not enjoy your stay, we would have gladly moved you to a larger cabin had you let us know that you were unhappy.
You requested and were booked into one of our Honeymoon cabins. The cabin has two decks, one in the front of the cabin and one at the back, both decks have tables and chairs, as does the private braai area at the base of the cabin.
We will certainly take up your low rating for cleanliness and customer service with the team as this will not be tolerated.
Warm regards,
Plett Forest Cabins
