About Christiana Lodge
An architect designed and erected Christiana Lodge as a one-of-a-kind getaway. Two swimming pools complete with lounge chairs are available for guests’ use on the premises, allowing them to unwind and take in the rays of the sun. Aside from that, there are a lot of patios and porches where people may have a drink in the afternoon while watching the sun go down.
The Christiana Lodge is a four-star guest lodge that can be found in the tranquil and calm neighborhood of Solar Beach. It is just a five-minute walk away from Robberg Beach, and it is situated 4.5 kilometers from the center of town. The lodge is owned by Christa Joubert as well as her brother Philip. After working in the entertainment industry for many years, Christa made the move to Plettenberg Bay in 2009.
The lodge welcomed its first guests in the month of December in 2009. The proprietors have an in-depth knowledge of the area, make themselves available to each guest, and provide recommendations for local attractions, dining establishments, and retail establishments. The posh Solar Beach neighborhood is home to the Christiana Lodge. It’s in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by trees and devoid of human habitation.
In spite of the relative peace and quiet of the location, Robberg Beach can be reached on foot in less than a minute. The majority of tourists walk down the beach to Plettenberg Bay, where they explore the many eateries and coffee shops that the town has to offer.
