Penguin Seaside Cottage

With six blue-flag beaches, divine dining options, quaint boutique shops and creative spaces and countless outdoor activities, it’s no wonder Plett is one of the Garden Route’s most beloved destinations. And if you’re looking for the ultimate experience of both luxury and privacy, you’ll want to start and end every adventure-filled day in one of the many exclusive villas that dot the pristine coastline.

One such villa is Penguin Seaside Cottage, a newly renovated, elegantly decorated two-bedroom cottage on a private estate, surrounded by fynbos and just a short stroll away from the stunning Keurbooms Beach. It’s fully equipped with all the comforts and luxuries you could ask for, including two beautiful ensuite bedrooms, an outdoor shower, a secluded garden seating area and a view-drenched wraparound wooden deck with outdoor sitting and dining areas, sun loungers and a Weber gas braai. Milkwood Glen Estate also boasts a large community pool.

Good to know
The cottage is equipped with inside and outside security beams and alarm siren. You can enquire about housekeeping services upon reservation.
