LALAPANZI
PLETTENBERG BAY, GARDEN ROUTE
Unique hideaway!
Bathed in light, halfway to the clouds on the Robberg peninsula, Lalapanzi is a coastal cocoon of calm. Just as the name suggests, you can kick back and relax every fibre of your being here. It’s Plett, but this is no soulless beach house. Rather conjure images of colonial comfort and casual chic, doused in dreamy romance and this is Lalapanzi. Cosseted from the coastal wind and bordering a greenbelt, guinea fowl scurry about outside, while their more stoic parrot cousins and flamingos adorn the interior. Fire, stone and water are in bountiful supply at Lalapanzi. There are vast interior and exterior fireplaces and a brazier on the deck – along with the dancing flames of banks of candles throughout the house. Steadfast stone walls on the veranda are evocative, while the swimming pool and outdoor baths are as soothing as the sound of the sea nearby. Actually, it’s so close you’ll walk to Robberg 5 beach in 3.5 minutes tops.
