Plett Quarter Apartments
The unit itself was very nice. Much farther from the beach than the picture show. It's also on the main street which is busy. Lots of street noise in late into the night.

Great stop off point on the Garden route. Hotel had great views across the ocean and nearby town and close enough to amenities to have a social gathering wander across to them. Room immaculate with great facilities.
