Guest Reviews
- Robin (9/5): -
- Sieglinde Hebbel (8/5): - Traumblick über die gesamte Bucht von Knysna -
bestes Frühstück mit geschnitztem Obst - alles liebevollst hergerichtet und dekoriert - vielen Dank an das Team von Muge! Die Auffahrt vor das Haus ist ein Herausforderung!
Für Gehbehinderte ist das Haus ungeeignet, da Gästezimmer im 3 Stock liegen und für Gepäck wtc kein Aufzug existiert.
- Anonymous (7/5): -
- Blanka (7/5): A peaceful, pet-friendly stay with lovely lagoon views, and a few areas that could be improved for a smoother guest expe - The lagoon views are truly beautiful and the standout feature of the property. The beds were comfortable, allowing for a good night’s sleep. Recently renovated bathrooms with quality Hansgrohe shower heads. The continental breakfast was fresh, well presented, and tasty. The second morning’s soft background music created a relaxing breakfast atmosphere. Pet-friendly accommodation is always appreciated. Check-in felt a bit unclear, and it wasn’t easy to find assistance on arrival. Communication before and during arrival could be more streamlined.
The outdoor areas and pet facilities could be better suited for night-time use.
Rooms were quite warm, with limited cooling options.
Some spaces would benefit from more attention to detail to enhance privacy and presentation.

- Jackquin (10/5): -
- Sunjeet (10/5): - Very Friendly Staffs and what a amazing scneries from my bedroom
- Muhammad (7/5): good and pleasant - The Manager is excellent and very cooperative. She always available for any help Facilities, which include aircon because the weather is very hot.
- Valerie (10/5): Beautiful views, lovely room and and amazing staff - Beautifully presented breakfast by friendly and efficient staff There was nothing to complain about
- Parker (10/5): Exceptional -
- Rowena (10/5): Exceptional - Staff very friendly. Beautiful view. N/A
- Olwetu (10/5): Memorable, fun and just what the soul needed - When we checked in we were greatest by 2 ladies with big smiles and they seem to see that I was exhausted from the 8 hour drive and offered me a complimentary glass of wine and my husband had their amazing coffee. We were walked into the dining & lounge area and the view if breathtaking. Our room exceeded our expectations my daughter loved her bed and my husband loved that he could walk to fetch his race number for the marathon. Breakfast was amazing freshly squeezed juice with the most amazing muesli. The fire place at night gives a relaxing intimate moment, with a glass of red wine in hand I enjoyed a relaxing moment with great conversations with the staff. We would definitely book this property again Maybe they could look into daily housekeeping servicing of the rooms but it was not a train smash as we quickly made our beds and went to paint the town as we come from Wavecrest beach hotel and spa and we were in need of different views.
- Kim (3/5): Poor -
- Sagie (10/5): Excellent - Staff made us feel welcome and appreciated. Facilities were clean and comfortable while we had a stunning view of Knysna
- Will (7/5): Good - Great breakfast and well positioned location.
- Celeste-mellet (9/5): Superb - LOVED THE BREAKFAST AND THE LADIES WHO QOEK AND RUN THE VIEWS. WE FELT WELCOMED AND THEY WERE VERY KIND AND HELPFUL. The only thing that could be a plus is to put safety gates on sliding doors so you can keep the doors open during a nap without having to worry about Monkeys visiting and/or an aircon. Other than that our stay was perfect & homely
- Ryan (9/5): Highly recommend this place. - Amazing view, very comfortable rooms, great breakfast.
- Colleen (10/5): Exceptional - The beds were so comfortable. The hosts were amazing. Everyone went out of their way to make us feel at home. Not to mention, the view is so awesome. The breakfasts were wonderful. We had such an incredible stay. Would definitely recommend this place and go back.

- Matze17 (9/5): Cost effective stay with amazing view above Knysna bay - House is located high above Knysna so that you have an amazing view over the bay.
Room has been very spacious.
Host has been very friendly and helpful.
Breakfast was nice. It has been a little unlucky, there hasn't been a baby high chair.
- Paul (9/5): Friendly staff, beautiful views - It’s a nice & quiet place with beautiful views.
Super nice staff, so friendly, lovely breakfast The steps that go up to the rooms, not ideal, there’s no elevator & you need to carry your heavy luggage with you
- Marlize (9/5): I will recommend Knysnaviews to anyone who wants a fantastic stay with value for money! - This is the best fruit art I have seen in any hotel or B+B and she did it differently every morning. Fresh fruit with such a big variety. Full continental breakfast's for each and every guest with a nice cup of coffee, Clean rooms with fresh towels daily, , games to play, books to read, daily laundry service, Sundowners on the lovely stoep overlooking the Knysna Lake in the evenings, seeing the birds going home at night, the lights over the lake at night, the manageress's advice of what to do in the area helped us to get to the Heads view point, the beach, the hiking trail, church on Christmasday etc. That we had to leave early :(
- Lorraine (6/5): Pleasant -
- Raika (7/5): Good - The view was fantastic! Knysna is not a place to travel with dogs. All restaurants in whole Knysna don’t allow dogs. Since the guest house is not self-catering the only way to get food is to order. But there is even no delivery to the guest house. You have to collect it. The guest house is nice but we can’t recommend Knysna for travellers with a dog.
