Richard
One of the most stunning sea and mountain views in Plett with only 300 meters walk to a secure beach. A short walk to the famous Blue Flag Beaches the Sanctuary Penthouse is on the exclusive Beach Head Drive, providing excellent security for the whole family. An exclusive, well established family home welcoming guests since 2017. A great place to relax and recharge in an exclusive designer penthouse surrounded by natural beauty and surrounds.
Clair and Richard retired to Plettenberg Bay from Sandton, Johannesburg after high profile and demanding corporate careers. Having their holidays in Plett over the past 20 years and visiting their retired parents, it was a natural progression to relocate to Plett, once their two children, Amy & Rikki had completed their school careers. Richard is an avid bowler and serves as the President of the local Plettenberg Bay Bowling Club. Clair & Richard attend the local Methodist Church where they give of their time and talents to serve wherever the need arises. They have converted their beloved family home into a luxury premier holiday apartment in July 2017, which they now run and manage as a family unit. They are devoted to their family and to providing stress free holiday memories to holiday makers in a modern, tranquil setting.
The Sanctuary Penthouse is located at the end of the world-renowned Beach Head Drive, with some of the most exclusive real estate in the country. The famous Robberg 5, Blue Flag Beach is a short 5-minute walk away on a safe and secure pathway. 24-hour security in a gated community provides safety and security for the whole family. We have an excellent Spar supermarket only 5 minutes away for all your grocery requirements, and a bottle store and chemist just next door. Our Famous Surf Cafe for excellent food and local bands performing in the evenings. Off the Hook restaurant serves award winning burgers as well as very tasty Lebanese grills and fish dishes. The area is very safe with kids and elderly folk walking their dogs along the paved walk ways, protected by a number of neighbourhood watch groups and a very vigilant and effective Police Force. Then another 5 minutes away takes you to the world-famous Central Beach with award winning Fat Fish restaurant and Spur for the family. Always some action on Central Beach!
