Three bedrooms and two bathrooms in a Plettenberg Bay apartment that puts four beaches within a kilometre. Wedge Beach is roughly an eight-minute walk, with Central Beach at a similar distance and Lookout Beach not much further — a useful base for anyone who wants to move between stretches of coast without committing to one. Inside, the living room is arranged around a sofa and work desk, and a terrace extends the space outdoors. A sun terrace and garden add room to spread out, and the outdoor pool runs year-round. Free parking is included, which matters in Plett during busier periods. The apartment's name — Vista Ballena, whale view — hints at what's possible from this part of the bay: southern right whales move through these waters between roughly July and November, and the elevated position of the building makes for decent sightlines when they do.
