Looking at the Google earth map it looks like Bloukrans in the Tsitsikamma and not Port Elizabeth is the site of this hotel.

Good point. The moderator should change it to Bloukrans River (Eastern Cape).

^^ Okay... I'm a little upset, that modern round monstrosity in the middle of the ecologically very sensitive Tsitsikamma! NOT HAPPY:ohno: They should have tried to get that thing passed just on the other side of the Bloukrans in the Western Cape... wonder if it would've gone through?

I could not agree more... This is outrageous!!!! It is so out of place there. I really hope this doesn't happen.

I agree its completly contextually inappropriate, should be more low rise and stepped back with good use of natural ellements of stone and wood.

this belongs on the strand or toti

Yip, or something like that lodge they have off Champmans peak as you come into Hout bay, made from 100% natural stuff. It needs to blend in, not stick out.
