This hotel provides great value for money with its affordable prices and attention to detail. Situated on a hill overlooking the lagoon, the lush garden offers a peaceful retreat with stunning views. The staff are friendly and provide excellent service. The rooms, especially the ones in the treetops, offer a lovely view and are equipped with all the necessary amenities. Breakfast is delicious and the balcony provides a nice spot to enjoy the meal.

No improvements needed, everything was satisfactory.

The location of the guest house is perfect, with easy access to the Waterfront area and surrounded by lush forests. The chalet we stayed in had a breathtaking view of the Knysna lagoon and was beautifully decorated. The room was comfortable, with a clean and well-equipped bathroom. The staff provided excellent service, and the breakfast served on the verandah was a great start to the day. The guest house also offered free wifi and laundry service.

The wifi signal was sometimes weak and required us to move closer to the router for a better connection.

I recently stayed at a guest house in Knysna and was really impressed. The location was perfect, nestled on a hill overlooking the lagoon. It was a peaceful retreat away from the busyness of the town, surrounded by trees and the sound of birds. The rooms were spacious and clean, and each had a deck with a beautiful view of the lagoon. The service was top-notch, with staff going out of their way to accommodate us. The breakfast, although slightly on the small side, was delivered to our room and enjoyed on the balcony. It was a great value for money and I will definitely be returning next time I visit this area.

Everything was spot on, nothing to complain about.

United Kingdom, January 2023

The view from the cottage terrace was breathtaking, especially during sunrise. The breakfast basket was a unique experience, with a simple yet delicious selection. The owners were friendly and helpful.

The fixtures in the room showed signs of wear and tear, but this did not affect our stay. The location was a bit far from the center of the city, but it was still easily accessible.
