포르모자 베이

My partner and I enjoyed our stay at Formosa Bay. Generally, my desires in booking accommodation are minimal. There must be cleanliness, space in the room and at least, access to Wifi and a decent amount of channels to watch on TV, beyond the basics. Formosa Bay provides all of this. The resort also has a small restaurant set up and breakfast comes with "vouchers" which off sets some of the costs. You can also order alcoholic beverages and set out on a deck overlooking a beautiful, natural landscape. I found the service to be kind, from reception through to those working in the eating area. The food was also of a good quality. I admit we did not take full advantage of all the facilities. There are 2 pools and a gaming area. There are also tennis courts. The location is also a 5-10 minute drive from the sea. It's located right on the N2 for travelers passing through Plett. We stayed there during the Christmas season and enjoyed ourselves. If interacting with diverse guests are your desire, then that is not what I experienced. I do not know why. But this could also have been the timing of our stay, which was during the Christmas season. I would definitely recommend this resort. We stayed on the eastern side of the resort. Not all rooms have self-catering services so ensure your booked room includes this if that is what you need and desire. Oh, something strange happened for a Christmas traveller. We requested clean bedding but the staff were away for the special days. We received a note saying no cleaning was allowed. I understand respect for Holy Days but do believe that service should continue nevertheless. Pay staff more during this time. What if the bedding was cleaned with spilt coffee or something? Does that mean no cleaning or clean blankets or sheets? I went to reception and eventually got service, even though I was told they "might" help me ;)

This place is absolutely FILTHY! For anyone wanting to stay at Formosa Bay Resort I highly recommend that you do not waste your time. After we arrived and weren't happy with our chalet they moved us to another chalet which the people didn't arrive yet. we still complained and the resort manager said that unfortunately the cleaning staff will only be back about 3 days before we left. We left early as we have a 8 month old baby and did not want to get her sick in such a filthy environment. We are now struggling to get a refund on our stay as the resort management says that there was nothing wrong with our chalets. NB These photos were taken in TWO separate chalets. I still have a load of pictures, but unfortunately I don't have the time to upload everything. Please do not waste your time, money or expectations on this place.
