Guest Reviews

• Jasmine (1/5): - Nothing Not getting my refund
• Ronald (9/5): Staff very attentive. Bed comfortable and breakfast good. - Opposite the golf course. Car parked under cover opposite room. None
• Birgit (7/5): Ideal für Golfer - Großzügige, modern eingerichtete Lobby
• Naledi (8/5): -
• EDWARD (10/5): -
• Willem (10/5): Great value for money. - Did not have breakfast, great location as I had to be at the Golf Club the next morning. Nothing to complain about.
• Vuyokazi (1/5): - I did not stay I attended a function and when I came back at night they had locked all the doors. I called the manager more than 5x he did not answer. I called the host, she answered her phone but couldn't help me. I was outside for more than an hour and then decided to drive back to Port Elizabeth. I drove as far as the toll gate which is more than 60km away only to realise that I don't have money to pay as my wallet was locked inside their property. I drove back to Knysna again. They only opened for me after 4am. It was pointless for me to even sleep at that time. I took all my belongings and left. I only got help from them after 4hrs. The manager told me that he forgot to tell me how to go around the house to open the sliding door when I come back. The most cruel person is the one who answered the phone but did not make sure that j get assistance.
• Ntheoseng (10/5): It’s a beautiful place,very clean and impressed with the breakfast - It was clean,friendly stuff memmbers,broachers available to check exciting places to visit,Wi-Fi working The air condition was too soft and it was cold on that day,you can’t set it to the comfortable temperature

• Thoheda (5/5): - It was quiet if you visiting after a long trip and need to rest Breakfast was very standard. No fruit, cheese etc. Just plain bread and eggs, mushroom. We had to request a halal protein and we got chicken Vienna. The pool was not cleaned. We requested but nothing was done about it. Sadly we had to leave early as my husband had a heart attack while we were there

• Zinzi (7/5): It was great under the circumstances. - The hospitality was amazing from the staff. The noice from in the morning before 8am from other visitors. Can the shower be fixed because the water runs to the room carpet and leaves that not nice smell. We were at room 2 Albatross.

• Shane (8/5): Knysna Nice - The room was clean and the facility well maintained. Spacious and well decorated. The receptionist Stephan was very friendly. The breakfast choices were very limited and left me very disappointed. The management should look at improving this part of the stay.
• EARLE (7/5): Our stay was not too bad although it could have been better. - Location was very good. Breakfast was okay. Breakfast could be better. The TV had only one channel. We had to call the manager to sort it out. Not enough blankets in the room during winter. There was a problem with the hot water. We had to switch rooms. Electric blanket for cold winter nights

We had to ask for the room keys 30min after checking in. It was not provided to us. We had to switch off the air conditioning so that the geysers could be switched on.
• Candice (10/5): Friendly welcome, gorgeous rooms and bathrooms. Well located - Beautiful modern rooms
• Siyabonga (8/5): Very good -
• Diana (9/5): Superb - Good location. Clean and good sized rooms A little noisy at night due to closeness to shrubbery but not much of a problem
• Jan (7/5): Good -
• Katherine (10/5): We wanted to be near friends staying in Hunter's Village so this worked out very well. - The breakfast more than met our needs. We would have preferred brewed coffee. Otherwise, there was more than enough to eat of a well balanced meal.
• Zelda (7/5): Good -
• Fika (10/5): We had a lovely stay, the staff is really great and the property is beautiful. - The property is beautiful, in a very quiet area. My favourite part is the bed. It’s huge and extremely comfortable and warm 😂. The staff is just lovely. My partner and I arrived in the early hours of the morning, unbeknown to us the receptionist was waiting and was very happy for our arrival- even at 2am. The property owner needs to sort out the payment process. It is not fair to make it the customers problem that payment has not reflected. Bookings would never have been approved if no payment was made.
• Ralph (8/5): it was very good and comfortable. - The Staff and owner were very helpful and friendly. The property was clean and neat. The WiFi signal was very slow. The coffee could have been better and it would have been great if one could purchase something to drink on the property. But this did not spoil the stay at all!
• Matebese (8/5): Very good -
• Dirk (10/5): - Alles Super gelaufen und Stephan und sein Team waren sehr freundlich. Gruß Mayer
• Abdulgader (10/5): Exceptional - The place is super clean and tidy. The rooms are comfy and the breakfast was nice. They made arrangements for halaal food for my family. Nothing really.

• Muaath (10/5): Exceptional - It exceeded our expectations
• Beke (10/5): exceptionally and beautiful place, Stephen took good care of us. - the location and the design of the guest house is beautiful nothing
• Zoliswa (7/5): It was good but no there was no iroin and irioning board that wasn’t make sense to me all in all we were not allowed to - Neat and clean Breakfast and there was no irion
• Ulua (9/5): Superb - A lovely place. Quiet, but not out of the way. Perfect for getting to local attractions and still feel like you're exclusive😊 Staff so friendly and nice. I liked everything.
• Charlie (8/5): Very good -
• Anathi (4/5): Fair - Dining areas we perfect They lied about having bathtubs only to find out that they only have showers. Took cold showers because of cold water
• Lesego (10/5): Exceptional - Everything from the rooms and staff. The pace was the same as in the pictures. Nothing, i was happy with my stay

• Angela (10/5): Exceptional -
• Ebalang (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful place with great finishes.
• Luciano (10/5): Exceptional - Wow, wow, wow. They took great care of the parents as promised. Not just your average breakfast, thats for sure. Yummy. The communal space, the rooms and the swimming pool area transports you to a different environment. Much nicer in person Compared to the photos. 5 stars to Stephen for his attentive care. What's not to like... Do yourself a favour and book this place.
• Anonymous (8/5): Very pleasant and friendly staff -
• Ashti (9/5): Superb -
• Robert (10/5): Perfect location for a perfect holiday. - Stephen & Joyce were excellent. They exceeded our expectations and no request was a problem. Stephen accomodated us for early breakfasts when required and Joyce looked after all cleaning and laundry requirements. We were sad to say goodbye to them as we formed a great bond with them during our stay. Nothing negative to add here as we were all delighted with the accomodation and more importantly the hospitality received from Stephen & Joyce.
• Mashudu (10/5): Exceptional -
• Gqiba (8/5): Very good - The exterior it's soo beautiful and healthy 🙏🙏 The exterior needs more attention we couldn't take nice pictures.
• Dylano (8/5): Very good -
• Ryan (9/5): Superb -
• Jaco (10/5): Exceptional -
• Uyanda (8/5): Very good - Beautiful space The room was cold. Heater was not working
• Hannah (3/5): Facilities are lovely, if you could use them all. They need to advertise this better, remove the kitchen photos and braa - The staff were exceptionally rude! You also can’t use the kitchen, it doesn’t state this anywhere on bookings.com The staff, apparently we should have asked if we can use the braai and the kitchen. When it’s advertised in photos, you assume you can use it. But apparently not, then they rudely told us that we in quote ‘should ask the correct questions’.
• Nomaphelo (10/5): Exceptional -
• Cheryl (9/5): Superb - We had an amazing experience. Friendly staff, the breakfast was awesome. The location is just a stones throw from the Waterfront. There isn't a variety of DSTV channels in the bedroom. If that changes they will get a 10 rating. We stayed there the weekend that we experienced stage 5 loadshedding. That also distorted our experience somewhat.
• Fkiswa (10/5): Everything was just perfect -
• Hlumela (10/5): Exceptional -
• Ryan (10/5): Exceptional -
• Francois (10/5): Exceptional -
• Lesley (10/5): Exceptional -
• Verified traveler (2/5): Falso 3 estrelas . - Hotel se descreve como 3 estrelas, mas na verdade, não deve ter 1 . Quarto mto feio, aspecto de sujo , aquecedor não funciona, Wi-Fi não funciona . O chuveiro é horrível e água quente só por 2 minutos. O aquecedor não funciona e passamos mto frio à noite . Tudo bem o hotel ser bem simples, mas a descrição de 3 estrelas é enganação . O quarto tem aspecto de sujo.
• Isabela (10/5): - Ótima guest House. Limpa, nova, funcionários muito simpáticos. Café da manhã gostoso.
• Andreas (8/5): Neues Guest House beim Golfplatz - Tolle Einrichtung, netter Service Frühstück OK. leider kein Restaurant Etwas abgelegen vom Zentrum / Waterfront
• Toni (8/5): - Die Unterkunft an sich ist perfekt. Alles neu und der Parkplatz ist direkt vor dem Haus. Das Zimmer hat alles was man braucht. Das Frühstück wurde individuell zubereitet. Die Lage ist etwas außerhalb der Stadt. Das einzige was etwas suspekt war, das wir einmal früher zurück waren und die Hausdame in unserem Zimmer stand. Angeblich wollte sie nur Raumduft versprühen und hat die Schokolade für die Kissen vergessen. Dies geschah aber nur einmal. Gefehlt hat nichts. Es war nur etwas seltsam. Sonst war alles perfekt.
