“Great accomodation”
The facilities were perfect, we loved the pool area and the jacuzzi type bath in the cabin was a bonus. The view from our deck was absolutely stunning. We will definitely go back.

“Love this place!”
Loved how cozy the place is! With the wooden look, it feels homely yet still on vacation. And absolutely loved the hot tub, benefiting the fact that it's Private. Even when there are problems, like we had no water because they were working on the pipes in the road. They informed us immediately and kept us updated and it was sorted in a no time, like how fast they act to make sure everything runs smooth!

“Short by Great Stay. Will return.”
The Gentleman that welcomed us (Sorry I forgot your name) was welcoming and efficient with the check in procedure, and as it was a last minute booking he was also quick to confirm and reply to my message. The room was spacious, with a kitchenette which is great for a longer stay. Unfortunately we only had 1 night. Bed was comfortable and the spa bath was a dream after the day we had. My highlight was sitting on the Balcony overlooking the Lagoon as the sun was setting.

Every thing was so peaceful and effortless, You get your own space to park your vehicle under where you’re staying. Your room is cleaned for you every day ( including a change of towels), those ladies do a very good Job. You get an amazing Sunset view every evening, and a view of the lagoon/ lake. Everyone has their own braai spot. The pool/ pool area was always kept clean as well. You can come and go as you please, as you have your own set of keys/remote control. And the shops and waterfront are a 7 to 10 minute drive away. Everything was just super easy and convenient, But so tranquil and relaxing at the same time. Definitely a 10/10 experience :) We’ll be back for sure!!

Honestly, we enjoyed our stay like never before. Not one negative thing to say. The unit was beautiful, clean, comfortable, private and had a spectacular view over Knysna. The pool is also very nice.

Loved the view. Had a great view of the sunset over the lagoon and it was breathtaking along with the gorgeous weather we experienced. We were lucky to have 3 beautiful days, not too hot and not too cold!

“Amazing view over Knysna”
Amazing view from the terrace over Knysna, also great sundowner place. We had an own parking garage, the shower was the best we had so far on our whole trip. The bed was also very comfortable.
