Guest Reviews
- Zahida (8/5): Knysna bliss - Fantastic showers. The best along the garden route. Fresh towels Comfortable beds Not a fan of the family room decor. Did not leave the room smelling fresh. There's an indoor dog at this property
- Andre (7/5): Was good and value for money - Staff friendly and food good Just parking , intall shade covers
- Andre (10/5): We enjoyed our stay our rooms were neat, clean linen and the overall experience was great - I liked how friendly the staff was especially Jackie going way and beyond in helping us. Priscilla is tops with the breakfast it was fresh delicious and so filling.
- Ian (10/5): Views, homely and welcoming - The décor is thoughtfully curated — every piece feels intentionally chosen rather than following a generic template. It’s clear that a lot of care went into the design. The host was warm and welcoming, and breakfast was absolutely delicious, thanks to Priscilla in the kitchen. Overall, it was a wonderful stay. While a few minor touch-ups could be made, the place is truly exceptional — a real home away from home. Nothing, the whole place is stunning
