Westford Birds Nest

KekeRating, 5 stars1 week 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.

Blown away by how beautiful and spacious the place was. The interiors were tastefully decorated, with every detail thoughtfully designed to create a warm and inviting atmosphere The kitchen was fully equipped with modern appliances.The living area was incredibly spacious, allowing for both relaxation and socializing. Each room was comfortable and beautifully furnished, providing a perfect retreat after a day of exploring Knysna. What really made this experience stand out was our host.

The Gatehouse @ The River House Estate

KevinRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Lovely place in a beautiful and serene setting. We had some issues with hot water (geyser failure which does not happen often!) and power (normal in SA) and through it Andrew was very involved sorting it out quickly and keeping us informed right the way through. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will likely be back if staying in Knysna again.

Thesen - The Good Life

MeganRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We had a lovey stay at La Vie Belle. The amenities were exquisite. It felt like the perfect home away from home since the moment we arrived. We were two ladies alone and felt very safe and comfortable in Thesen Island and the house. It was exactly the place we needed to relax, from the sunny patio to the comfortable lounge where we watched many movies and series on the smart TV. It was lovely having good coffee and tea ready in the kitchen, as well as hand wash, lotion, shampoo and conditioner in the bathrooms. We loved the spacious kitchen where we were able to cook some meals. We will definitely be back again!

Thesen Island Holiday House

JoanneRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We really enjoyed our stay here. lovely home, fully equipped with everything we needed. Everything is in good condition unlike other places we've rented. The best part was the location, a few steps to the nearest bridge to get into Thesen Town. We didn't drive at all when we stayed there. Also lovely to walk within the Thesen Estate in the evenings. Faith was incredibly friendly and thorough upon check in. We were very pleased with our stay.

Knysna Tsukamori

PierreRating, 5 stars2 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.

Cliff House

NaomiRating, 5 stars5 days ago
We had a fabulous stay at The Cliff House. Dirk was easy to communicate with, met us on arrival and showed us how everything worked. The house itself has incredible views and very well equipped with everything you need to make yourself at home. The jacuzzi overlooking the ocean, the fireplace and being able to spot whales from the balcony were all special moments for our family. The house is in a very safe area with the supermarket and centre of town an easy 10min drive away and it was a great place to base ourselves from whilst doing day trips to other parts of the garden route. The daily cleaning service meant we could fully relax and enjoy our surroundings. Thank you Dirk, it was a pleasure to stay at this wonderful property.

Old belvidere, 4 bedroom house with lagoon view

RogerRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Morne is a super host. The house is way more beautiful and spacious in real life. It was a really magical getaway for my family. The street lights reflecting on the water of the lake at night was one of the picturesque highlights for me. We would definitely like to stay there again in the very near future. Thank you Morné.
