    sparkling lagoon
    legend staff
    distracting noise

    Stunning views and warm vibes in Knysna 🌊✨

    The views are fenomenaal, waking up to that sparkling lagoon is a vibe! Staff are legends, even sorted our brekkie in bed one morning. The room was huge and comfy with a lekker private deck for sundowners.

    Only thing was the noise from the restaurant sometimes made it a bit hard to sleep early.

    waterfront hotel
    loud generator
    deserted area

    Stunning views, spacious room, lovely private deck

    The area becomes almost deserted at night!!! It would be nice if there were more authentic dining options nearby!!! The noise from the diesel generator during load shedding could be distracting!!!

    spacious room
    noisy environment

    The spacious room had tons of natural light from the big windows, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.

    The strong smell of food from the kitchen and the noise from the restaurant made it difficult to sleep early.

    spacious and well-decorated apartments
    cramped communal areas

    The facility is beautiful, housed in a renovated historic building, offering spacious and well-decorated apartments. We loved enjoying sunsets overlooking the bay from the deck, and the staff, particularly Dylan the concierge, were incredibly helpful with fabulous hiking suggestions nearby.

    The communal areas felt a bit cramped at times during our stay.

    breathtaking views
    friendly staff
    great location
    limited closet space

    Stunning views and friendly vibes!

    We had such an awesome stay! The lagoon views from our room were just breathtaking. Plus, the staff were super chill and helpful—big shoutout to Allan for making us feel right at home. One tiny thing, the room could’ve used a bit more closet space for longer stays, but honestly, the atmosphere made up for it!

    stunning views
    delicious dinners
    cramped communal areas

    We had a lovely stay with stunning views from our room and enjoyed some delicious dinners at the restaurant, especially the oyster night. The hotel also has a fantastic sauna and a cozy spa lounge to chill out after a long day. Just a heads up, the communal areas felt a bit cramped at times, but it didn't ruin our experience at all! 😄

    Families will love this place!

    I loved the amazing views from our large, stylish apartment overlooking the lake. The staff was like no other, super friendly and ready to help -- made me feel welcomed right away!

    It wasn't exactly inexpensive, but given the experience, it was still acceptable.

    friendly staff

    It was just a reliable pick for an overnight stop in Knysna with value for price. The staff were friendly and quite helpful, which made us feel welcome during our stay. Be sure to check the dining times as they closed earlier than we expected.

    spacious room
    soft bedding
    beautiful views
    noise from hallway
    light intrusion

    We stayed in a Standard Double Room for 2 nights, and it was huge with tons of natural light from the big windows. The Egyptian cotton bedding was so soft, you'll want to stay cozy all day. The shower was nice and spacious too! Just a heads up, though—if you're a light sleeper, the noises from the hallway can sneak in early. The vibe is really chill, and the views over the lagoon are absolutely stunning.
