Vacation rentals with lake access in Greater Plettenberg Bay

I am a returning guest to Michelle's place and absolute satisfaction. Well done.

5 Stars – A Slice of Paradise in Knysna! We had the most incredible stay at this beautiful home in Knysna. From the moment we arrived, we felt so welcomed — the hosts greeted us warmly and had thoughtfully left snacks, a bottle of wine, and even a delicious cake for us to enjoy. Such a special touch that set the tone for the rest of our stay. The house itself is stunning — spotless, beautifully decorated, and perfectly equipped with everything we needed. The peaceful location made it the perfect place to unwind. We loved spending time on the patio, soaking in the scenery, and enjoying relaxed evenings by the fire. The location is ideal too — just a short drive from town, yet far enough to feel like a private retreat. This place truly felt like a home away from home, and we can’t wait to return. Thank you for an unforgettable stay!

Heather is a great host quick to reply and goes out of her way to make your stay perfect. We have stayed in two of Heather's properties and both have been well equipped and exceptionally clean. We will hopefully be back next year. I highly recommend any property that Heather is hosting.

Dirk’s place was fabulous. The views from the deck were to die for, and was short walk along the road to the Wilderness National Park and glorious trails along the river. Restaurants in Wilderness ‘village” were not walkable but were only a 5 minute drive. We can recommend the Salinas beach restaurant on the equally fabulous Wilderness beach. Our only regret is that we did not stay long enough to fully enjoy the facilities that Dirk’s place offered (cycles, kayaks, braaii).

We had the most wonderful week at Daniel’s place. The house was beautiful and immaculately maintained. The location couldn’t have been better and we will definitely be back!

We had a fantastic stay at Cecile’s house. It was just like the pictures, beautiful location and Cecile was so helpful. The welcome package she left us was lovely too

We enjoyed our stay and had a very relaxing time with family . We hope to visit again soon.

Our principle contact was Jonathan who couldn’t have done more for us, a superb host who lives nearby. The property is well equipped throughout and located in a safe residential area just 200m from the estuary. We spent 24 wonderful days there. One point is that internal access to the upstairs is by a rather narrow spiral staircase which might not suit all ie elderly but for others ie children a point of excitement. I would have no hesitation in highly recommending both the property and hosts as a wonderful home to relax and unwind in. We’ve only found one other to match!

This space is perfect for 2 people for a getaway, the 2 patios were a bonus, space to simply be. This is a prime spot in These Island, in our opinion, the view over the estuary, the bird life, is magnificent and peaceful Short walk to the restuarants as the Quay in town. Access to the canoe, SUP Bikes and golf sticks was a bonus, we used them all and had great fun, without having to have packed all our own gear. Diane and her family and the housekeeper, Patience were fabulous, helping us with our luggage, cleaning and checking in on us regularly. We will return for the simplicity of being away without stress.

We had 3 great days at Sea Why in the beautiful forest town of Natures Valley . The cottage was comfortable and well equipped. Thanks Marita and Arbrie for your friendliness and your lovely cottage

We stayed at Vista Laguna over the holidays! It was fantastic and we will definitely be back!

We stayed in one of Tine’s luxury glamping caravans as the room on AirBnB got double booked. Tine solved the matter very professionally and upon arrival she was very friendly and helpful. Thanks for our short but beautiful stay!

We really enjoyed our stay in Quinton's Red door cottage. Quinton was available to show us around and explain everything to us. The unit was very comfortable, clean and cozy. Quinton gave us plenty of suggestions for restaurants and kept in touch before and during our stay. It was a great place to stay in, easy to find and fairly central to most places in the area. I would definitely stay there again when in Wilderness.

Beautifully located within the Thesen Island precinct with access to its facilities this unit is a penthouse with convenient access from your parking directly to the unit. Well maintained and kept well by Douglas who communicates clearly and is always close by if you need additional support.

Wonderful stay! The place was clean, comfortable, and peaceful. Friendly service and everything we needed was available. Highly recommended for a relaxing getaway!

Adele’s a wonderful host, kind, warm and made us feel at home. I was there for a race ⛰️ and I wish to return and spend more time taking in those beautiful views. Thank you😊

We had a marvelous holiday in a beautifully, peacefully setting. Noreen and Simon made us feel welcome, and were lucky to see the newborn faul "cracker" borned on Christmas.

Allison was super friendly , gave us great recommendations for activities and kid friendly places. Randomly checked in on us to make sure we were comfortable throughout our stay.

Jean's house is the absolute perfect place for a family holiday. Lots of space, adjacent to a lovely, clean lagoon for fishing, swimming and canoeing; a lovely lawn for the kids to play on, a massive stoep (verandah) to spend the days and early evenings enjoying a braai and admiring the spectacular view of the hill on the other side of the lagoon, in the coolness of shade. The granny cottage in the backyard is the perfect go-to place for grandparents or parents to escape to. The location is perfect, on a cul-de-sac, near enough to restaurants and shops alike. To top it all, Jean is the perfect host and communicated accurately, honestly and immediately. Our large family of nine returned home, relaxed, happy and well rested. We absolutely dream of repeating our fabulous holiday in the exact same house, soon.

It was the perfect relaxing holiday setting in beautiful nature surroundings. We absolutely will visit this holiday home again. Craig and Theoline are friendly and helpfull hosts. I will recommend their place to anyone.

Nico went out of his way to make sure we had a comfortable stay. We had a wonderful time and will surely go back there whenever we're in Knysna :)

This bungalow transported us to our childhood holidays. As a family with 2 kids, we were so comfy and just loved this spot. Comfortable bedrooms and bathrooms. Outdoor taps to wash off all the sand. Cute kitchen with everything you need, and a cozy lounge for card games. Lovely deck with bright red chairs that we assume resemble the colour of the Loerie's wings, that fly past everyday. Quick and easy to walk to the beach and the kids loved riding their bikes safely to the shop for ice creams. Endless activities, walking, biking, fishing, hiking, swimming, paddling. Honestly PARADISE on earth. The lagoon is beautiful but we loved the walk over to the sea against that huge mountain where the otter trail ends. The turquoise blue ocean was incredible. We cannot wait to come back to our new favourite place!

Great spot. Kids loved the surroundings and the Ratex gym was a bonus for them too.

Staying in this tiny house was like stepping into a fairytale! The space is beautifully designed, cozy, and full of charming details that made our stay unforgettable. Sheena is the best host you could ask for—warm, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect. Can’t wait to return to this magical little getaway!
