Luxurious Beach House
We had a pleasant stay at the property. The host was responsive and helpful throughout, She quickly assisted us when the gas supply needed attention. The property itself was properly equipped and conveniently located. Overall, it was a good experience, and we appreciated the support. Thank you!

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!

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.

Weavers Rest: Lakefront Bliss & Water Sports
What a wonderful tranquil place to stay! We enjoyed the breakfast and meals in the conservatory overlooking the beautiful surroundings. Accomodation was clean and very roomy. We had we all had a wonderful stay there and were so sad to be leaving it. Thank you and we felt very safe throughout our stay

Green Leaf Lagoon Cottage
We had an amazing time and Green Leaf exceeded our expectations. Pictures do not do the place any justice. We loved spending time on the veranda and had bush buck and guinea fowl visit. The solar power meant that we weren't even aware of the load shedding during our stay.

The Island in Sedgefield (Back up power)
Jennifers place was food for the soul. If you want tranquility tick. If you want privacy, tick. If you want lovely sunrise and sunset walks, tick. If you want space to relax and take in nature, tick. The pool area was such a pleasant experience. As a family we lay outside taking in the starry nights. The only thing that put a slight damper on our getaway was two rainy days but that didnt stop us enjoying the garden and the braai area infront of a cozy fire. A big thank you for accommodating us Jennifer. No regrets whatsoever. 👍

This house is incredible. Much bigger than it looks in the pictures and the views are amazing. It was perfect for me and my 4 colleagues on our business trip to Knysna!

Lovely place to stay at & the location was great to explore Knysna.

Brenton Eco-Cottage: Tranquility on Knysna Lagoon
Great location, comfortable place!!

Friends or Family
Our stay of one night was too short to be able to appreciate Kim's place fully, but we will certainly be back to make more of it! The location overlooking the lake and sea is magnificent, and the patio calls out to be used for meals, reading a book or birdwatching. The accommodation is spacious and comfortable, the kitchen homely and well-appointed. Communication was easy, and when I got lost on google maps instead of having used the available directions, Kim was superquick and clear in putting me into the right direction. Checkin was flexible and simple, checkout as well. In a word - wonderful! Thank you so much!

Peace in Africa
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!

Holly's house in the Woods
We had a wonderful 6-day stay at this beautiful and well-equipped home in Brenton-on-Lake. The house is in a quiet and peaceful area, perfect for a relaxing getaway. Everything you need for a comfortable holiday is provided. One of the highlights was sitting outside and seeing the bushbucks wandering past—it was truly magical! Communication with Jacques was effortless; he was helpful and responsive throughout. It was an absolute pleasure staying here, and I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a tranquil retreat.

Lovely spacious house with good views. All on one level except the living room and very well equipped. Excellent communication from Elmo with lots of local suggestions. Small problem with hot water dealt with very quickly and efficiently. Very comfortable accommodation that we would definitely revisit.

Ocean Villa in Brenton-on-Sea with pool
We absolutely loved our two-day stay in brenton-on-sea and wish we could have stayed longer! From the moment we arrived, we felt completely at home. The house has such a welcoming and relaxing feel. It was spotless, beautifully decorated, and stocked with everything we could possibly need (and more!). Anabella was great as well! She was super friendly, quick to respond, and made everything seamless from check-in to check-out. Highly recommend this place! My family and I are already talking about coming back

Two bedroom house with a pool.
Beautiful house with beautiful views of the valley. Very spacious. Great decor.

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!

Stunning Knysna Home with the most amazing views
They are so sweet! When we were cold she even brought a duvet!

Paradise in Sedgefield
We quickly settled in at Paradise. The house has everything one needs, felt peaceful and safe. Very close to the lagoon and also mosaic/slow roast for morning coffee walks. Hosts warm and friendly.

Paradise Views
Amazing stay. Spacious house, centrally situated with beautiful see and mountain views. Will gladly visit again.
