“Lovely stay with beautiful views and Carla was friendly, thoughtful and always easy to reach.”
It was a beautiful property with amazing views from the balcony. Carla was an excellent host as she was easy to reach and brought thoughtful gifts after we were stuck in the storm. The area is quiet while still being central and close to a lot of activities and restaurants. Also liked the convenience of the self check in.

“Cosy, cute and stunning design- incredible staff too !”
The bed was so comfy, the team was so friendly and accommodating, absolutely wonderful experience. The space gets quite hot in summer so they had a fan set up and running for us when we arrived which was so thoughtful! There’s also an air cooler available which we struggled to figure out how to use properly but if you leave the door open for a bit before bed (with lights off to avoid the bugs coming in) and keep the fan on it cools down quickly!

“Good short stay, and very close to Knysna central.”
The apartment is very cozy. The bedroom set up was amazing. The mattress and bedding of top quality and the TV set up really efficient. Watched movies the evening and it felt as if we were in our own little cinema. The bathroom facilities were good with warm water provided.

“Amazing and peaceful! ♥️”
We had the most wonderful stay this past weekend! The place was absolutely beautiful and incredibly comfortable. The deck and the view were honestly the highlight, peaceful, breathtaking, and perfect for relaxing. Everything was spotless, well-kept, and exactly as described. It truly felt like a home away from home. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I don’t feel like going home 😅♥️

We had a wonderful stay! The apartment is very stylishly furnished and immediately made us feel at home. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you need, and the Wi-Fi worked perfectly throughout our stay. The neighborhood felt very safe, which we truly appreciated. The only downside is that the building is quite noisy, but it didn’t really bother us. Overall, we loved our time here and would happily come back!

“Great location to stay in Knysna - outstanding web-solution to inform visitors”
Nice and calm location, nice studio incl. a balcony and a very well working pellet stove. The professional integrated Welcome Book is a solution that leaves no question open. Very well done and easy to us!

“The whole stay was excellent, from checking in to checking out.”
Perfect attention to detail, from being sent pictures of the driveway to make it easier to find, to a high quality coffee machine, complete with good ground coffee supplied. Even the light switches are labelled so you know which is which. I work in tourism and hospitality, and I learned from this experience.

The studio was beautiful, spacious, and very welcoming. It had plenty of windows, which made it bright and full of natural light. The host was super kind, helpful, and always quick to reply.
