Guest Reviews
- David (10/5): A fantastic, huge apartment is a prime location. - Amazing position, massive apartment with very modern and lovely decor, management very nice. Nothing
- Hoeksema (10/5): Amazing stay - We had a most memorable stay in a beautiful property. Lovely view and amazing interior with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Nothing not to like.
- Luke (8/5): Luxurious stay at Knysna Heads - Luxury, close to Knysna Heads, attentive staff
- Hanns (9/5): -
- Steven Lapere (9/5): Great location, neat serviced apartment, kitchen needs attention - Great view, serviced apartment, friendly and efficient cleaning staff. Excellent location We stayed in this same apartment 2 years ago (number 3), and the amenities and general maintenance have deteriorated. Some windows don’t open, rusted closed, some blinds don’t work/broken, it’s a 3 bedroom apartment and we’re a family of 5 - there are too few plates, forks and knives (set of 4 or 5), no non-stick pans etc - for a high-end apartment the kitchen is stocked with low-end cheap utensils, so cooking wasn’t pleasant.
- Clair (10/5): A most amazing one night stay, which we will be back to extend as soon as we can! - What an amazing place! The location, atmosphere, restaurants and the people in Nysna are all first class The comfort levels were off the chart.
- Raziah (7/5): Good location. - The location. The decor is basic and out of date. Shower door did not close flush so there was a puddle of water on the floor after showering. Dishwasher did not work for 2 days. Hairdryer did not work. Cleaning was done late everyday.
- Amanda (10/5): Perfect, spacious and great views. - Everything. Location, service, views, space. Everything was perfect. The apartment is fully equipped. The manager and the staff are superb. Absolutely nothing.
- Jerry (9/5): -

- Gregory (10/5): - Fantastic view. Cleaned daily. Very attentive staff. Amarille was wonderful. Arrangements were perfect. She even gave us a design book as a present. Nothing
- Rayan (10/5): مميز وجميل واكرر السكن فيه - الإطلالة والموقع وتعامل الموظفين والنظافة وموقف مجاني وآمن وهادي ومطبخ متكامل وتنظيف يومي ومضيف متعاون واكرر الزيارة ولكن تمت الترقيه للتاون هاوس بمبلغ إضافي اكبر السماحة وأفضل إطلالة الكهرب ممكن يطفي بالليل كان حجزنا 4 ليالي ولكن الليلة الأخيرة انقطع الكهرب من بعد الساعة 10 الليل لحد الساعة 6 الصباح والأرضيات كان متسخة قليلا ولكن المكان مميز فعلا والملاحظات غير مهمة عند جمال المكان والمنزل

- Suhail (7/5): Good - The apartment was nice, spacious and well equipped
our host was very helpful our apartment given to us was on the first floor and the apartment didnt have a good view as mentioned in the apartment specifications
booking should have mentioned and specified the apartments views exactly
the trees blocked our view which was not what we booked the apartment for
- Saajida (10/5): Amazing Stay - Gorgeous views, clean apartment with ALL that you need on a holiday. The host Amarille, was an absolute sweetheart, so helpful, accomodating and knowledgable about things to do in the area, where to eat etc. The beds are ultra comfy, bathroom was spacious My stay at beacon house coming to an end
- Alia (10/5): Wonderful Stay - Excellent Location and sea view. None
- Shaden (8/5): Very good - My family and i like the location and the amazing views. The apartment was also very comfortable and bigger than we expected . It wasn’t the best in terms of cleanliness.
For example, the blinds were very dirty and dusty.
They really should do a very deep cleaning
- Mohammed (10/5): Exceptional -
- Erik (10/5): Beautiful views and top notch accomodations for family - Amazing views of the heads, inlet and bay. Easy access to two great restaurants. Perfect splurge during our South African adventure. Plenty secure parking Nothing
- Lwazi (9/5): Superb - Spacious & family friendly
- Lee (10/5): Exceptional - Lovely ladies working at the reception and beautiful, comfortable and fantastic views.
- Engelkok (10/5): Lovely short stay - Great location and friendly staff. The property is a real gem and we would happily return here for another stay. An added bonus is the little cafe across the road, and the Piza e Vino where we could order pizzas after running the Knysna Forest marathon. One disappointment was that, on Sunday morning, we went into town and when we returned (before check-out time) there was already a car parked in our parking spot.
- Ashwell (10/5): Blue Eagles and Fab4 - The views from the balcony was great watching the waves and boats turning at the Heads.
- Moses (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful apartment with a lovely view, stayed at apartment 1, Thanks to Amarille for the fantastic service and hospitality. Will definitely visit Beacon house again.
- Mariska (10/5): Perfect location to enjoy Knysna if you like the sound of ocean waves. - The location was ideal and the cleanliness as well as staff was excellent.
- Géraldine (10/5): A magical place to live with family or friends! - I absolutely loved that the apartment is a duplex penthouse. The building is superbly located by the water, and especially close to two delightful restaurants. It's easy to take beautiful walks and, most importantly, to go to the beach. The apartment is luxurious, beautifully decorated, very comfortable in terms of bedding, and lacks nothing. Not much, I would say maybe just that the jacuzzi needs to be heated before arrival and then everything is perfect.
- Willem (10/5): Exceptional -
- Suzette (8/5): We stayed over for a night with an sick relative! - The view outside Everything was beautiful
- Arif (9/5): Superb -
- Bianca (10/5): Exceptional -
- Christian (9/5): Superb -
- Thobelani (10/5): Excellent location, clean apartment with quality finishes. - Excellent location, very neat and clean with quality finishes, very helpful host who helped recommend go to places and arranged some of the bookings for us. Confirm which floor/apartment will you be staying at. The images on the boking site create an impression that you are booking a penthouse, it was only when we arrived that we realized it's a 3 story building with multiple apartments and we did not stay at the penthouse we were looking forward to.
- Marcia (9/5): Superb -
- Peter (10/5): Amarille went out of her way to please - Location WiFi not perfect
- Karin (10/5): Magical - Excellent location, beautiful apartment, very friendly staff NA
- Kim (10/5): Wonderful weeks break in Knysna - Wonderful location, clean, good WiFi, comfortable beds and quality linen. Quiet ( except when the generator was running). The host was excellent. Very helpful and responded to all queries and gave suggestions.
Great to have a Braai facility and large fridge freezer. Washing machine a plus. Kitchen lacked a few basics. A salad bowl for example. But this was minor and we managed
- Leo (10/5): Exceptional - I would love to visit again. I do love the views and my host was really helpful too she is lovely 😍
- Gerhard (6/5): Beautiful venue but left with a bitter taste in the mouth. - Beacon House accommodation is beautiful and the view of the Knysna Heads is exquisite From start to finish my wife’s birthday experience has been nothing short of disappointing. The jacuzzi which we were both looking forward to using didn’t warm up.
On arrival the way we were handled was unacceptable.
We understand mistakes can be made regarding placing other guests in our Penthouse room and explaining it away as ‘they did not understand what the guests were communicating to them about the room they had booked because they are foreigners ~ how bizarre.
But it was the way our 17 year old son & 16 year old daughter was addressed. They were both very excited about exploring the place. Thinking it had more than just a reception, but possibly other amenities. She suddenly took off at them and said you can’t go in as they need time to leave the room. We erected on the ground floor and had no idea where the room was anyway. They are both intelligent enough to understand that they were not to go near the room but were excited about the prospect of exploring the establishment. She said go across the road, that’s where you will find your food place & other amenities.
The lady has absolutely no finesse or diplomacy!!!!!!!!!!!!
She is abrupt and insensitive to the needs of her guests. [especially local guests]
We certainly did not book 2 x “wake up calls or messages” and yet we received them in the form of:
Saturday morning
8:11am message received
Would you like housekeeping today?….. Not even accompanied with a good morning. Did you enjoy your 1st nights stay with us’
Sunday morning
7:41am ~ message received
It was an instruction as what to do with the keys and a reminder that we needed to be out at 10am.
Unacceptable ~ communicate these requirements on day of arrival.
Each morning we felt the intrusion and a certain amount of pressure to exit the room.
When people go away and stay at places like this the intention is to be able to relax, enjoy it in peace & and to sleep in a little.
Both mornings we felt harassed and hurried along.
- Darren (9/5): Superb -
- Pillay (10/5): Exceptional -
- Gary (8/5): Penthouse is worth it - Great location and view. Property manager was great and accommodating. Large penthouse very nice and modern. Water jug not refilled when empty. AC units are temperamental and need instructions. Only two of four rooms with a view.
- Muhammad (10/5): Exceptional -
- Imraan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lewis (9/5): Lovely stay! The views are incredible! - The location is amazing! Absolutely stunning being by the ocean. The penthouse is huge and we loved it. The balcony was a gem. Some modernisation would be beneficial, eg the decor / tv but that’s a minor comment. Highly recommend staying here
- Mohammed (9/5): Superb - The location is great
The apartment is very spacious and luxury
And a shout out to AMARILLE at beacon lovely person very friendly and very helpful The only thing that I would say is not that big of an issue but because of the restaurant that is in front you get a food and extractor fan smell every now and again
- Simphiwe (10/5): What an amazing place we found!!! - Beacon House is out of this world. It is a gem!!! Located in the eastern head, in close proximity to popular restaurants, lagoon beach, and heads' view points. The apartment we stayed in was exquisite, from its well appointed bedrooms, to comfy seating areas, and to wrap around expansive balcony overlooking the ocean and the lagoon .
Ohh the staff is amazing. Always available to help. Prompt, proactive and on point!
We have made ourselves a promise to come back to this place again and again when we visit Knysna! Nothing
