A Stay at Sky Villa - Plettenberg Bay
High above Plettenberg Bay, known as the Bay of Beauty or Bahia Formosa, Sky Villa Boutique Hotel feels perfectly placed between sky, sea and mountain. From the moment you arrive, the world below softens. Time slows. The views take over.
Architecturally designed to embrace its surroundings, Sky Villa overlooks the sweeping coastline of Plett, with uninterrupted views across the Robberg Peninsula, the Indian Ocean and the Outeniqua Mountain Range. It is a setting that invites you to pause, breathe deeply and simply take it all in.
Where Design, Art and Nature Flow Together
Sky Villa is surrounded by beautifully landscaped, award-winning gardens alive with birdlife. Pathways wind past indigenous plants and open lawns, while an on-site art gallery flows seamlessly into the gardens. Here, striking bronze sculptures by local artists stand quietly in conversation with nature, adding depth and character to the space.
This thoughtful balance between architecture, art and landscape creates a sense of calm that is felt throughout the property.
Refined Comfort With Endless Views
Sky Villa offers 14 air-conditioned, en-suite bedrooms in the main hotel, each opening onto a spacious outdoor balcony with ocean or mountain views.
For guests seeking more privacy or flexibility, Sky Annex offers an additional six bedrooms, along with the self-catering Sky Cottage.
Every room is designed to make the most of the scenery, ensuring that mornings begin with light, air and expansive views, and evenings end with soft skies and distant ocean sounds.
Wellness at a Higher Level
Wellbeing is woven naturally into the Sky Villa experience. Guests have access to a fully equipped gym, while the outdoor yoga deck offers a peaceful space to stretch and unwind with panoramic views as your backdrop.
Massages can also be arranged in the hotel’s salon, allowing for moments of quiet indulgence without ever leaving the property.
Relaxed Dining and Elevated Evenings
The Sky Bar is a favourite gathering spot, perfect for enjoying a cocktail while watching the light shift across the bay. The Sky pool offers a tranquil place to lounge, while drinks and light lunches can be enjoyed around the main hotel pool.
Sky Restaurant serves breakfast, lunch and dinner, with a focus on relaxed yet refined dining.
A curated selection of exclusive wines from the hotel’s wine cellar adds an extra layer to the experience, best enjoyed slowly as the sun sets beyond the horizon.
Discover the Best of Plettenberg Bay
Beyond Sky Villa, Plettenberg Bay offers a rich mix of nature and adventure. The area is home to six Blue Flag sandy beaches and unforgettable ocean safaris.
Scenic green-flag cycle trails wind through the indigenous fynbos biome, while Plett’s status as a Whale Heritage Site makes seasonal whale sightings a truly special experience.
Hiking trails in and around Plettenberg Bay are plentiful, with the Robberg Nature Reserve standing out as a must-visit for its dramatic coastal paths. Local markets add a cultural touch, offering organic produce, African arts and handcrafted goods that reflect the spirit of the region.
A Place to Slow Down and Take It All In
Sky Villa is more than a place to stay.
It is a space where elevated design meets natural beauty, where days are shaped by light and landscape, and where every moment feels gently unhurried.
Whether you are drawn by the views, the art, or the promise of quiet luxury, Sky Villa offers an experience that lingers long after you leave.
