Had a great greeting from Pam the owner - a couple of beers which were very welcome after our long drive from Cape Town. We had the Whale Room - beautiful views. We stayed four nights and unfortunately the weather wasn't very kind to us for a couple of days so we had to have breakfast inside. However, we did... More

A big thank you to Pam Mears. We booked the Dolphin room which was lovely, welcome drink, superb breakfast and a super location just off the beach. Plett is truly wonderful wish we could have stayed longer. Had a super meal at the lookout which Pam recommended. Hope to go back again someday.

Hundreds of dolphins in the bay! And we see them all from the terrace of this nice B&B. Lovely decorated rooms, good breakfast and a warm service. We stay two nights in seahorse room and we feel very comfortabel. Daggi + Uwe, Germany

We stayed at the Dolphins Playground for 3 nights in November during our tour of the Western Cape. The house is in a fantastic position overlooking the ocean, minutes from the beach and a short drive from the town centre. We stayed in the Seahorse room which was large with a good size en-suite and very comfortable. The room opened... More

What a simply gorgeous place this is! You have to climb up a few stairs to get to the front door, but the compensation you get for this in terms of ocean views is simply amazing. We were three couples, to stay in three rooms that all gave out to a wonderful common terrace with a waw view of the... More

We spent three lovely nights at Dolphin's playground. We were greeted by Pam with a glass of cold beer after our long journey. She took us upstairs and the view of the ocean just hits you... This was just what we were looking for.... Somewhere you can fall asleep, listening to the roar of the waves. The room was nice... More

The location is awesome with views to die for. But, the interior fittings are a little old, there is no fridge in the room, breakfast was good but we had 7 people crowded around 1 table - luckily all nice people but it was cramped and it is a good 5 min drive into town, it would be at least...

This B&B is in a great location with beautiful views out to sea. Lovely rooms and great breakfast in the morning. Pam, the owner was extremely welcoming and very helpful. We were only there one night, and wish we could have stayed longer.....
