Luxurious beachfront apartment in ideal location

MosiwaRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago
I'm leaving this review on behalf of my brother and sister-in-law, who recently stayed at the property. They had a very comfortable stay and described it as a true "home away from home." They want to sincerely thank the host for making their visit so enjoyable. My brother mentioned that the place exceeded his expectations and that he was genuinely impressed. He also said that the next time he visits PE, he will definitely book this place again.

Westford Birds Nest

KekeRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Colette's Airbnb was divine! The place is truly breathtaking, the pictures are accurate and the space is thoughtfully put together with everything you could possibly need. She is highly responsive checking in with you to see if there is anything you need to elevate your experience. The Airbnb is nestled in a peaceful nature reserve overlooking the Knysna estuary. It is located out of the hustle and bustle of town, with Knysna's hotspots just a stone throw away for your convenience. Colette went above and beyond host duties, offering trips to town when she was heading out, showing me lovely places to visit and sending exclusive restaurant offers of the day! She is a joy, and I would recommend her place to anyone looking to relax, unplug and reset. Colette's Lovely Airbnb is the only choice to make. I look forward to booking it in the summer and any other time I happen to be in Knysna.

Knysna Tsukamori

PierreRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
A great spot by the Knysna lagoon. What impresses most is the stylish and elegant house with Japanese design. It's not too large and not too small - feels elegant and cozy at the same time. We enjoyed the wood stove, the really nice braai area and most of all the location. As a bonus, it's five minutes walk by the lagoon to the newly refurbished Food Lovers Market, too. Our host was professional, friendly and really sharp. Would book again.

Leisure Isle Cottage

MichaelRating, 5 stars2 months ago
What a gem of a place! Waking up to that stunning view and being just a stone’s throw from the lagoon was such a treat. It’s the perfect spot for families with young kids. The house was spacious, spotless, and well-equipped—with a cozy fireplace that made chilly nights extra special. The swimming pool and bikes were a great bonus. Tori was an absolute pleasure to deal with. We’d come back in a heartbeat.

ON THE BEACH! Modern, secure, striking ocean views

MikeRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Though we were travelling on business it was great to wake up to an ocean sunrise. The walk along the beach in the morning was refreshing and clear. This is a great place to stay, it’s not so far to a number of super restaurants ( bit too far to walk though). The kitchen is well appointed in case you’d rather cook at home. With both a washing machine & dryer, you can easily do your laundry too. The dolphins in the bay were the icing on the cake on our last morning. We’d definitely stay here again given the opportunity and would recommend it to others.
