Views Boutique Hotel & Spa ★★★★★

📍 South St, Wilderness

"Loved the views which were spectacular. Our sea view suite was stunning and loved listening to the sounds of the sea. We both enjoyed a spa treatment in the hotel which was excellent though there seemed as if lots of the spa wasn’t working. The restaurant food was of a high standard though many items not available. Loved our short stay."

Dune Villa Wilderness

Dune Villa Wilderness ★★★★

📍 63 Die Duin, Wilderness

"Dune Villa Wilderness is a lovely place. There are so many personal and thoughtful touches in the lobby and the room. The owners are kind and welcoming and made a point to say hi and check in on your stay at breakfast each morning. Oh, and the breakfast was delicious! Beautiful ocean views in the room and a good value! Not walkable to Wilderness was the only downside, but if you want a quiet and private place to stay this is it!!!"

📍 2JGG+5Q, Hoekwil, Wilderness

Beach Villa Wilderness ★★★★★

📍 3 Roland Krynauw St, Wilderness

"Such a wonderful location and superb hosts (Leane and Dion). The views are stunning, especially from the breakfast room, and the location means beach walks and the village are easy to do / reach. Our room was spacious, had its own deck area and loungers. The bathroom is luxurious, massive bath and double shower. Breakfast is cooked to order. This was a repeat visit and we'll definitely be back!"

Wilderness Metanoia Hotels in Wilderness

Wilderness Metanoia

"Firstly the name of the place we booked was Claiirwood Estate . We could not find as it does not exist. The name had been changed to Metanoia but we were not told. A neighbour near where the Google maps took us said to go there. No bell, no reception just tow big gates. Luckily gardener was in calling distance and let us in. Nobody to greet you and we assumed the one chalet with a key in the door was for us. No instructions in house re wifi, walks etc Everything well maintained and meticulous. lovely unit and big gardens and pool in forest. Great birding etc Just very weird to go somewhere and be the only people there with nobody to ask if we were even in the right place Eventually found a family member on the property who helped Very strange experience. Great board walks long path to rivers a few km away but no indication in chalet re anything at all. "

The Old Trading Post Hotels in Wilderness

The Old Trading Post

"The Old Trading Post ticked all the boxes and provided us with exactly what we needed for the 4 days we spent in the Wilderness area. Off the beaten track in a private, quiet area, with plenty space for us to relax in the pool, braai or enjoy the scrumptious breakfasts and exceptional pizzas prepared by the hosts. Mike and René catered to all our needs and we thoroughly enjoyed the friendly chatter and personal service. I cant' wait to visit again!"

Wilderness Beach Hotel Hotels in Wilderness

Wilderness Beach Hotel

"This is a terrible hotel. Bad Smells, they fill the hotel with students and they were walking around at all hours of the morning, cockroaches in the bathrooms. I complained to the manager and he said they would give me a refund and when I left and contacted him he said they will not refund as they did not find cockroaches. My husband killed about 10 baby cockroaches in the bathroom and when i read other customer reviews there were MANY complaining about the same thing. So they still owe me the money. This hotel needs serious renovations- its not hotel standards any longer. They do not respond to emails and the manager Johan does not want to give me the owners details"

Views Boutique Hotel & Spa ★★★★★
"Spent 8 nights there and found everyone extremely accommodating and friendly. great location with great views. The staff were anxious to understand our needs and wants and try to accommodate. The dinner service was excellent and their desserts are NOT to be missed. The location for us was perfect as it was mid point between Mossel Bay and Plettenberg Bay, allowing us to use this hotel as a base and allowing us to roam freely along the Garden Route. Additionally, there is an excellent array of local restaurants in Wilderness that were in close proximity. The rooms were great, excellent bed and linens, all with an amazing view of the ocean. Can't express sufficiently was a great stay we enjoyed there."

Cinnamon Boutique Guest House ★★★★★
"Stayed here for 2 nights, but wished we had booked longer. Excellent location just off the main road, but felt very secluded due to the flora ,fauna and bird wildlife giving a feeling of remoteness. A short walk to the most amazing beach and a number of excellent restaurants nearby,also0 petrol station and well equipped supermarket. Staff are so welcoming, pleasant, attentive and professional. Rooms are spacious, spotless and well equipped .There is a choice of welcome drink you can take on arrival or at any time during your stay. with an "honesty" bar in operation. Breakfast quality is excellent. You are given your own set of keys to the property which gives access to a rear gate and a lovely short walk int the town and across the road to the beach. Had a wonderful stay. Small pool area with nice sunbeds."

Beach Villa Wilderness ★★★★★
"As we walked through the door, it was a WOW moment, with the amazing view facing us! Our room was equally beautful, again fabulous view, spacious and well set out. The hospitality from the owners, then also with the couple looking after it, when they went away, was all totally outstanding. The staff, without exception were all amazing too. Great breakfasts provided daily were lovely, buffet as well as breakfasts cooked to order. Everything was faultless. We will most definitely return, thank you! A perfect start to our trip."

Boardwalk Lodge – Self-Catering ★★★★
"The Garden Route in South Africa's Western Cape is certainly one of the most beautiful regions in a country that is not short of wonderful landscapes. And Wilderness is one of the most beautiful places there. If your trip takes you there, then we can definitely recommend the Boardwalk Lodge for an overnight stay. Situated in a slightly elevated position and just a few minutes' walk from the beach, the rooms are individual cottages nestled in the greenery like chalets. The rooms are spacious and equipped with everything you need for a pleasant stay. All important areas, such as the charming breakfast room, can be reached via wooden stairs. The two owners, Chris and Melissa, have created a real gem in one of the most beautiful places in South Africa. And there's no doubt that we'll be returning here on our next visit to Wilderness. Eva and Marc"
