An architectural marvel, Sky Villa Boutique Hotel makes the most of Bahai Formosa or the Bay of Beauty, as Plettenberg Bay is known. The rooftop pool, open-air wellness deck and atmospheric art gallery meld stylishly with a sophisticated bar and impressive staircase. Bronze wildlife statues dot the lush gardens, which are also a haven for local birdlife. Inside or outside, the views of the Indian Ocean coastline and Outeniqua Mountains are beautiful. Plett is a Whale Heritage Site and offers superb hiking in the Robberg Nature Reserve.

The hotel is adjoined by Sky Villa Annex, which contains a guesthouse and cottage that can be booked exclusively for larger groups. The Annex has a shared heated swimming pool and boma for alfresco dining.
