"Unique accommodation in a stunning location"

Exceptional

10.0

It’s in a fabulous position overlooking the Knysna lagoon. Our bedroom was more of a suite so it was very comfortable and spacious. Mark is a warm and friendly host. It’s a secured property making you feel safe at night.

The only challenge was the mirror in the lovely bathroom . It is made with a dark tinted glass which makes it extremely hard to apply makeup or see to shave.

Beautiful position and definitely need to book the rooms in the house to get the wonderful views . All drinks, whatever we wanted were inclusive which was fab !! The suites in the house are amazing and we definitely would book one of those next time

Nothing negative it’s a shame we couldn’t eat dinner at the property and the Boma was cancelled due to the weather forecast so disappointing but we were informed before our arrival so were able to book sirocco for dinner and that was fab and only 260 R return for the taxi to Thesen island .
