Amakaya Backpackers, Plettenberg Bay, South Africa

Welcome to Amakaya Backpackers!

You will find that here at our home you can relax and enjoy all the good things in life. Combined with our beautiful town Plettenberg Bay, you will never be bored. Have a look at our things to do. We have plenty of packages for larger groups or for the individual traveler. If you are the more relaxed type you can sit on our sun deck and sip on an ice cold drink soaking up some good South African sun.

Situated centrally and within walking distance from our main street, you'll find everything you need. From shopping malls to coffee shops, hairdresser, pubs and restaurants.

Our staff are friendly and extremely helpful with bookings and suggestions around Plettenberg Bay. Whether you want to jump out of a plane or off a bridge, want to brave the many forest and reserve walks, we have it all sorted.

Amakaya offers a variety of accommodation. If you travel in packs we have two enormous dorms. A 10 sleeper with its own private entrance and then our 8 sleeper which leads onto our courtyard. For the smaller groups for up to four people we have a private dorm with a built in clothes cupboard inside the house. For families we offer a large room with a double bed plus a bunker with an en-suite bathroom and a private balcony. For the more romantic couples, we have a double room with an en-suite bathroom and balcony to enjoy your breakfast on.

A double storey house with two 'braai' areas, bar, entertainment area, internet, lazy lounge, self-catering kitchen and plenty showers offers our guests all they need to enjoy a comfortable stay. We have our very own generator for those inconvenient power outages we are all experiencing throughout South Africa. So no one will be 'left in the dark.'
