Formosa Bay

My partner and I enjoyed our stay at Formosa Bay. Generally, my desires in booking accommodation are minimal. There must be cleanliness, space in the room and at least, access to Wifi and a decent amount of channels to watch on TV, beyond the basics. Formosa Bay provides all of this. The resort also has a small restaurant set up and breakfast comes with "vouchers" which off sets some of the costs. You can also order alcoholic beverages and set out on a deck overlooking a beautiful, natural landscape. I found the service to be kind, from reception through to those working in the eating area. The food was also of a good quality. I admit we did not take full advantage of all the facilities. There are 2 pools and a gaming area. There are also tennis courts. The location is also a 5-10 minute drive from the sea. It's located right on the N2 for travelers passing through Plett. We stayed there during the Christmas season and enjoyed ourselves. If interacting with diverse guests are your desire, then that is not what I experienced. I do not know why. But this could also have been the timing of our stay, which was during the Christmas season. I would definitely recommend this resort. We stayed on the eastern side of the resort. Not all rooms have self-catering services so ensure your booked room includes this if that is what you need and desire. Oh, something strange happened for a Christmas traveller. We requested clean bedding but the staff were away for the special days. We received a note saying no cleaning was allowed. I understand respect for Holy Days but do believe that service should continue nevertheless. Pay staff more during this time. What if the bedding was cleaned with spilt coffee or something? Does that mean no cleaning or clean blankets or sheets? I went to reception and eventually got service, even though I was told they "might" help me ;)

Spectacular accommodation. Home away from home. Absolutely clean. Beds are a dream. Relaxing atmosphere and the most friendliest hospitable Reception welcome and staff ever! Will definitely be back......Benjamin Family

We went during school holidays so resort was fairly quiet. Ideal for families but as a couple we enjoyed it. We had a large comfortable room with good a/c. Very convenient position. Staff friendly and helpful. Overall we thought it was good value

What an amazing Resort and perfect location close to town and the beach. But far away to ensure a quiet and peaceful stay. Safe and secure with easy access to the main road. Lots to do for the entire family. Even during loadshedding they provide lights to make your stay as comfortable as possible.

This is a very friendly family orientated venue that is very nice and secure. The room we had was vast and very modern and comfortable with a nice balcony. Lots of fluffy bunnies running around, great for kids and very safe. As a couple we still enjoyed it, although the restaurant does shut very early (6pm). Plenty of car parking, very friendly staff and the food is very good. Very nice resort, no real complaints.

The resort is very neat and well maintained. Easy access to all amenities, via a paved walk way. Chalets are very modern. No wifi in chalets which is a downer especially if you want to work while on holiday. Sleeping space for children under 12 not suitable. Would prefer a proper sleeper couch or bunk beds. The benches are not safe as they can roll off. On site restaurant very nice with the most divine waffles and friendly staff.
