The first thing you will notice about Emily Moon River Lodge, perched on the high banks of the Bitou River just outside Plettenberg Bay, is the view this position provides. Once your done taking in the view of wetland, river and dark mountains, have a look around your superbly appointed room. Here you will see a collection of African artwork from as far afield as Somalia and Kenya. The lodge's owners Mark and Christine Valentine have collected the decor for the eight seperate lodges (rooms) personally and the attention to detial shows.
The privacy you will enjoy in your self contained lodge with it's own balcony and uninterrupted views, will provide you with the perfect platform to relax and find some peace and quiet. The onsight restaurant is renowned for its exceptional cuisine and the bar with it's viewing deck is the perfect place to take in the sunset and a glass or two before dining.
From your bedroom window a portrait of a winding river and lush green wetland framed by the dark distant mountains. With this view and in this luxury, peace and relaxation comes easily.
