“Very comfortable B&B with great views over Knysna Lagoon.”
We had a really nice stay at Paradise Found. The views from the property across the Knysna lagoon are simply stunning. Very good communication with Johan about arrival time. The rooms are very comfortable. No aircon in ours, but a ceiling fan did the job keeping things cool. Breakfast on the patio was really nice, and cleverly managed so that wastage was minimised. In terms of value, this was the best accommodation of our holiday. And Johan also recommended an excellent farm stall to stop at on our long drive towards Cape Town on our departure day - Die Skeerhok Padstal just off the N2 near Heidelberg. We had an excellent lunch there.

“Fabulous view over Kynsna Bay”
Big attraction is the fabulous view across Knysna Bay. Johan could not have been more friendly, or done more for us. Small patio facing the Bay. Our room was clean, comfortable and well appointed.

Johan is an excellent host, and we enjoyed our conversations with him at breakfast time. We had breakfast each morning on the outside decking, a wonderful way to start each day! Johan gave us lots of information about the local area and shared recommendations for places to visit and eat. Our room was clean and comfortable, and our outside decking had a stunning view over the lagoon. There is secure car parking on site and lots of Ubers around for going to restaurants in the evening.

Johan was a great host. The apartment is at the top of a large hill, but that is the price you pay for a stunning view.

“Stunning views”
The best view of the holiday! We had a great stay at Johan’s place. He was a thoughtful and helpful host- letting us check in early and calling for help when we accidentally locked our keys in the car. He also recommended some great activities and restaurants in the area. The included breakfast was very appreciated. Thanks for a great stay :)

“Fabulous. 10/10 Would love to return soon”
The room was excellent with the most amazing view. Very comfortable bed bedding and pillows. Nice balcony. Johan was so friendly and helped make an appointment to see a dentist urgently. His breakfast is amazing and very lovely sat on balcony overlooking the whole of Knysna. Johan’s knowledge of the area and restaurants was invaluable. Nothing was too much trouble. The garden is gorgeous with lots of birds. A real haven.

“An amazing apartment with stunning views, beautiful nature, and a fantastic host.”
Paradise Found in Knysna is truly a beautiful place. The apartment was excellent: spacious, comfortable, and equipped with all the facilities you could wish for. Everything was spotless and clearly arranged with great care. The view is absolutely stunning, surrounded by beautiful nature. Waking up to this view every day never gets old. The area is peaceful and incredibly scenic. Johan is a wonderful host. Friendly, welcoming, and always available when needed. You feel immediately at home here. A place I look back on with great pleasure and would highly recommend without any hesitation.

“You have stay here if in Knysna.”
From when we me Johan and he showed us the room with the stunning view we were hooked. Johan and his wife had generated a large amount of very useful information. The breakfast whilst continental was comprehensive, again with a fabulous view of the lagoon. We tried the suggested restaurants and they were great quality at a fair price. Very happy we stayed there.
