Catch The Breeze - Knysna Lagoon Panoramic Views
Absolutely recommended. Accommodation with great views and great location to explore the area. Rainer is super friendly and accommodating. Everything was sparkling clean and well appointed. We enjoyed it.

Waterfront Thesen Villa - Mooring, Pool & Inverter
From booking to checkout Doug and Carla were great hosts. Doug accommodated a late check-in, helped us register with security to access Thesen Island, and took us to the property for a walk-through. The home was spotless, incredibly spacious, and had every utility and modcon you need. A pleasant surprise was the addition of a pool between booking and arrival. The outside space and boat deck make for the ultimate Knysna vacation spent on the water. The restaurants and bars of Thesen Harbour Town are a 5 min walk. We will be back. Thank You!

'Golf + Sea' Villa, 4 bedroom, pool
we had such a lovely stay at Samantha’s place. pictures truly don’t do justice to what the house actually looks like. it’s incredibly stunning, the area is so tranquil & private and her space feels like a home away from home. additionally, Sam was such an amazing host, communicated well throughout, answered any questions we had with urgency & ensured our check-in was as seamless as possible. thank you so much, Sam! :)

Waterfront- C25 Knysna Quays with pool
We loved our stay at C25 The Island, Knysna Quays. It is a gorgeous home and so comfortable and homely. It is so beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean and has everything you could need for a home away from home. We wished we could stay longer! Heather is a warm and engaging host - quick to respond and so happy to help with anything you need. Heather loves Knysna and is eager to share it with her guests. Our check-in was handled by her lovely daughter Jenna - which was quick and easy. We will definitely be back - it was everything we had hoped for and more.

Old belvidere, 4 bedroom house with lagoon view
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.

There will be time
We had a wonderfully stay wish we could stay longer. This is one of the top places I have ever stayed in. Location ten out of ten, interior ten out of ten, kitchen, rooms, living area the whole house ten out of ten. Sunset view from the house is priceless. Will definitely recommend this and would love to go there again.

Thesen Island Holiday House
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.

Brenton Ferien am Meer beach house
We had a great time in Brenton on Sea. The house had all the required amenities for a self catering stay and it had lots of space and private bedrooms for a family with 2 teenagers. The Fisherman's walk was beautiful and we could walk safely stroll to the beach. Will definitely recommend!

Breathtaking views in Belvidere Estate, Knysna
We loved our stay at the house in Belvidere. It was very private with fantastic views from the balcony. We enjoyed chilling out and eating our breakfast looking out at the stunning scenery, lagoon and birdlife. We even saw The Knysna Lourie, as it flew up to the balcony. The Belvidere Estate is very well kept and we loved our time there. The Bell Pub and The Oak Leaf Cafe were very welcoming with lovely food. Gail was very welcoming, friendly and helpful. We would definitely love to come back and we would recommend to friends this beautiful area and house.

Luna on the Knysna lagoon
An incredible home with a host who truly cares about the guest experience. The space is warm, earthy, and inviting, with stunning views that made our stay even more memorable. We loved every part of this thoughtfully designed and well-equipped accommodation. One of our favourite parts was lighting the indoor fire each day; it added such a cosy and peaceful atmosphere.

Knysna Leisure Isle Beach House
Silverspray is such a special place. A number of generations have had the absolute privilege of calling this their holiday home. Well worth the stay. Views to die for, bouys right outside to anchor your boat, outdoor shower for after the fun. This is a must stay. Loved it

Exquisite sea view 4 bedroom house at Knysna Heads
Morné is a great host, responds immediately to messages, welcomed us in person, had prepared freshly baked bread and a huge bowl of fruit for a us the location is stunning, views of the ocean, steep, but walkable short road leads down to the beach and coastline and up to the viewpoints on Knysa heads, perfect place, away from the buzz, but still close to everything

At the beach
This is a beautiful place right on Bollard Beach. We loved it. Lezane was very helpful.

French Corner
Everything went smoothly and the description of the accommodation was spot on. Location is great and the little welcome touches like some milk in the fridge, wine, and a snack basket are a really nice touch. Gia, the co-host came to introduce herself and enquired if we needed anything which also shows a rare customer centric approach. We would certainly go again and would happily recommend it to our friends. Lovely weekend!

Thesen Islands Family Home on Water's Edge
It's a lovely 4-bed holiday home facing the canal in a calm and beautiful surrounding. Overall very spacious.. The 2 bedrooms above and the living room and dining have a beautiful view of the water body. Kitchen had all varieties of crockery, more than one can imagine. Tanya who helped us with all the check-in formalities was v kind and helpful. We had a very comfortable stay. In fact, we were thinking about extending our 3-day stay by one more day. Will surely stay back here if we visit South Africa once again
