Guest Reviews
- Yvette Ellis (10/5): Amazing Value for Money - I can 100% recommend TerraVerde. You will find everything you need, and more, for a self-catering stay. Nothing is too much trouble for the hosts and the attention to every little detail is superb. Situated in a very safe, quiet neighborhood with all amenities close by. Thank you so much Alfred & Natalie for your wonderful hospitality, and a special thank you goes to Bentley, the friendliest guesthouse dog I've ever met😊 N/A.
- Bernhard (8/5): - Netter Gastgeber, schöne Aussicht
- Hans-Dieter (10/5): Highly recommended for one or two persons discovering the beautiful town, lagoon and coastal regions as Brenton-on-Sea, - Each Morning starts with a wonderful view over the Lagoon, to the beautiful Islands, Heads, and river estuary of Knysna, one of many reasons to visit this place again.
The apartment is modern, bright, very well maintained, equipped with a small and modern self-catering unit, a balkony, pool, all as shown on the accommodation’s homepage (www.theterraverde.co.za).
The apartment is highly recommended for one or two persons discovering the beautiful town, lagoon and coastal regions as Brenton-on-Sea, Buffal’s Bay and landscapes as Goukamma and Featherbed Nature Reserve.
Thanks so much to Natalie and Alfred for the pleasant hospitality, lots of hints, and, last not least, for perfect and sensible organisation. (Dieter, Bad Harzburg)

The views from the upper terrace is amazing.
It is walking distance to a fair few restaurants but we took an uber back as the hill was a bit steep for us oldies.
The jacuzzi by the side of the plunge pool was a lovely touch as we needed a bit of a water massage. Nothing to dislike.

- Sophia (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was there that we needed
Location was good Nothing to mention
- Reshoketswe (9/5): Very friendly hosts! - Loved the location, which had lovely views of the lagoon both from the balcony and the sun deck. It was close enough to everything else, and the host was very lovely and understanding - able to accommodate our check-in and check-out times.
Also very detailed in informing us what was available and how to use everything. Very spacious accommodation, lovely kitchenet which is fully equipped. The room can be very very cold especially in winter, so maybe bring a portable heater with you. Maybe 1 extra blanket. The Jacuzzi goes up to about 37 degrees Celsius which was far less than expected. The sauna wasn't offered so - looked like a storage unit really.
- Ashton (10/5): Best Knysna Experience! - The friendly reception and the personalised attention to our every need. Oh, and the view is amazing. The Spa Bath was the best experience of our stay. Our time spent at the venue was too short. We didn't get to explore all that was on offer.
