“Comfortable family stay in Knysna”
This is a lovely hotel situated right on the banks of the lagoon in a very safe location. It’s clear that every detail has been thoughtfully considered. Our kids had a blast using the paddleboards and canoes, which are provided to all guests free of charge. The area is absolutely beautiful and offers stunning views.

“A beautiful facility, but one that urgently needs to be brought up to standard.”
The bungalows are beautifully situated on the lagoon, comfortably surrounded by greenery with a great view.

It was truly the most amazing part of our honeymoon! The facilities were top notch, staff super friendly and helpful. The cabin was really well kept and the cleaners did an amazing job everyday. We will definitely be back! The kayaks that were available were super fun on the lagoon. Thank you!

“Always excellent and I’ll always recommend”
I have been staying there for years. I’m happy to report we stayed for our honeymoon this time and they spoiled us with flower petals going up the stairs, a bottle of champagne and chocolates to kick off our stay. Views are great, staff are friendly.
