The Best Hotel in Storms River, The Garden Route and the Little Karoo

Built around a hunting lodging dating back to 1888, this beloved lodging has whitewashed cottages neatly arranged around a village green. The inn is well known for its restaurant—De Oude Martha—which was named after the hotel's first cook. Though she has long since retired, her influence lingers. The food is mostly dependable standbys like grilled line fish, chicken, steaks, and pastas plus traditional Malay lamb curry with dried apricots. There's also a microbrewery next door.
