Guest Reviews
- Nadia (10/5): - Our stay was amazing with such friendly hosts.
- Guest (10/5): -
- Adrian (10/5): 2 nights at Brenton Bushbuck Lookout - The close proximity to the beach!
The safety was astounding!
The hosts were amazing!
The location was perfect for us!
The house came with everything you need for a holiday....solar power, washing machine and dryer, Netflix for the kids, excellent wifi, beach towels, body wash shampoo, hair shampoo. The kitchen is fully kitted out with all the utensils you need to cook.
There's a restaurant close by if you fancy a meal.
The beds and pillows were super comfy, and the bathrooms were immaculate. There's nothing we didn't like. It was thr first time my family visited Knysna and they loved it and loved this place.
- Marius (9/5): Superb -
- Rachel (10/5): Exceptional -
- Janine (10/5): Exceptional - We were spoiled with many treats, coffee, tea, pods, rusks, wine etc. We had a full DSTV, Netflix and other packages which my mother and husband thoroughly enjoyed. Everything we needed and more was there, beach towels, washing machine, iron etc and the place was clean. Enjoyed the fountain and the neighbourhood was quiet and safe. Nothing I can think of.
- Nils (10/5): Exceptional -
- Gavin (10/5): Wonderful flatlet in stunning location - Lovely comfortable flatlet below a house but still very private within a lush garden. Our hosts were very friendly and made sure all our needs were met. Lots of little extras like rusks and milk etc in the fridge. There is everything you need for a longer stay too. Would highly recommend it also for the location right near the a stunning cliff walk and the beach down the road. Nothing
- Annette (10/5): Exceptional -
- Petra (9/5): Superb - There was literally everything one could need or want in the apartment.
The footpath behind the house with its wonderful views was a very pleasant surprise and one of our highlights during our entire stay in ZA.
- Katie (10/5): Home from home - Cosy apartment situated near super views of the ocean.
Really friendly hosts with great recommendations for local places to eat. Hosts responded quickly to messages and made us feel very welcome.
The apartment had some really lovely touches like a welcome bottle of wine and chocolates.
The beds were comfortable and there was everything we needed to make it a home from home. Nothing
- Marisha (10/5): Exceptional -
- Liezl (9/5): Superb - The hosts were very accommodating with booking in and out times! Well equipped place with everything you need, even beverages and rusks!
- Zelda (9/5): Go see for yourself and have fun - Its well equipped, clean and comfortable Only suggestion is that the steps to unlock hob be sign posted as it took a few tries to crack the code, but then again I do have grey hair🙃
- Tshifhiwa (10/5): Beautiful... quite and clean everywhere throughout. - Home from home. Esmé and Julie couldn't be more helpful. Hope to stay one more time. There is nothing not to like.
- Porter (10/5): Beautiful, comfortable place in a stunning location. Would absolutely recommend. - Everything was perfect. It was clean and comfortable and in a great location with one of the best beaches in the world in our opinion! Hosts Julie and Esme were excellent. Nothing
- Abigail (10/5): Exceptional - The quietness and the fact that it was close to the sea. I've been to Knysna dozens of times but did not know about the gem we discovered.
- John (8/5): An excellent place to relax after a long flight from the UK, run by very kind hosts. - The accommodation was within walking distance of Brenton beach and situated in an attractive residential area Our host was charming and attentive and very kind.....she gave us her bag of small change so that we would be able to pay car park guardians and access toilets on our long trip up to the Northern Cape. The apartment was very spacious, clean and everything needed was there. The only downside was the lack of light. It is a ground floor apartment and for us......probably because of our age......too dark. Otherwise Brenton Bushbuck Lodge could not be faulted.
- Owen (10/5): Exceptional -
- Coenraad (9/5): Superb -
- De (10/5): Exceptional - This was the most comfortable and home feel place we stayed in, our whole western province tour.
The house is perfect for a family see holiday, with a beach not far away. The ladies that own the place were more than friendly and helpful. Will definitely book here again.
- Ncedisa (9/5): Superb 😀 - Everything Nothing
- Key (10/5): A home away from home - The home was beautiful, and incredibly warm and inviting. Esmé was a perfect host and we couldn't have asked for more. We felt like we were being treated like royalty. The house felt like our home away from home and that made the stay beautiful and memorable for us. Everything was perfect!
- Janet (9/5): Enjoyed our family holiday tremendously, would go there again. - Friendly hosts, everything that you need available, great location, wonderful beach
- Christel (9/5): Superb -
- Louise (7/5): Good -
- Nikee (10/5): It was a rare holiday getaway for me and it was really worth it. Thank you - The location was really good - quiet and within easy reach of the breath-taking coastal cliffs. The owners were very caring and made our stay most enjoyable (even though we were only there for 2 days). The flat can easily accommodate much longer stays and very comfortably. Nothing!
- Denise (10/5): Exceptional - Judy couldn't be more helpful with great local knowledge A stunning place to stay
- Mondleki (10/5): Wonderful - Really enjoyed ourselves. The host was great, welcoming and friendly. I will recommend it anytime.
Great location
- Selwyn (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ahmadthewolf (9/5): Superb - Super spacious
Tranquil
Garden outside is beautiful
Heaters and hot water bottles.
Place in not affected by loadshedding
Pretty much everything! From the pictures I thought the property overlooked the ocean but that was my mistake but the beach is very close.
- Enid (8/5): Home away from home - Our hosts Esmé & Julie were extremely responsive to messages. We were kept updated with the ever changing load schedule times. Great WiFi included, comfortable big beds and bedding. The downstairs accommodation is dark although there are several windows. The house is fully geared for self catering and they have an inverter is fantastic and they also have a little gas stove for the appliances that don't work during load shedding- every guest house must have one these days. We enjoyed the space inside as well as outside. Location is tucked away - would need to travel about 30 minutes to Sedgefield or Knysna to buy groceries if you are intending to self cater. Otherwise, the Butterfly Blu restaurant is great. There are beautiful walks close by. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It does get a bit dark in the cottage so you have to put lights on during the day.
We were out most times so it wasnt too much of a problem.
- Claresemw (10/5): Exceptional -
- Keedo (9/5): Amazing place to stay, hosts thought about everything. I will stay there again!! - The place exceeded our expectations. The hosts thought of everything, from toiletries to the charcoal for braai, including a washing machine with soap. There is nothing to not like
- Aidan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lucille (9/5): Perfect base to explore Brenton on sea. - Great value for money. Easy walk to beach and cliff path. All the conveniences of home, could not think of anything the apartment did not have. Wonderful to arrive to fresh bread and cheese, milk, tea and coffee. That was so kind. Bedding and towels were lovely. My elderly Dad enjoyed the the TV and loved that everything was on one level with no stairs. The Butterfly Blu Restaurant, down the road serves excellent, well price seafood in a magical setting. The house can be a little shady when the weather is bad ( we were a bit unlucky with the weather), but this is probably a bonus in summer and there were plenty of heaters and blankets available.
- Elsabe (9/5): Superb -
- Lourens (10/5): Exceptional -
- Regesh (10/5): Beautiful family getaway - Hosts were amazing and extremely helpful. Location was beautiful. Will definitely recommend for families
- Monique (9/5): Lovely accommodation - This is a lovely unit for families looking for holiday accommodation. The owner lends out swimming towels and boggy boards, there are also board games in the unit. This attention to detail is well appreciated.
- Charl (10/5): Exceptional - Very clean and welcoming. You do not have to take anything with you. They got you covered in all aspects.
- Malan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ryan (10/5): Exceeded Expectations! - What a lovely space.
They have literally thought of everything. The inverter means that load shedding is hardly a thing, fully equipped kitchen (with a single camping gas unit) makes life so easy.
If you're juggling a few options, stop and book this.

- Amanda (10/5): Exceptional -

- Ida (10/5): Exceptional - Best hosts
- Mengu (10/5): We would love to visit again - Every thing was perfect No comment
- Sindy (10/5): A home away from home with luxuries and comfort. - A home away from home. Gracious and friendly hosts. Neat and clean accomodation. Alternate means for load shedding, powering the TV , led rechargeable lights and a little gas stove. Hosts took us on a Tour of the place, with great walking sites and breath taking views. Sent us directions to our next destination. Highly recommend Brenton Bush buck.
- Petililou (10/5): Exceptional - Our stay at Esmes and Julies has been by far the best option during our one month traveling in SA.
