Breakfast was wonderful and prepared very thoughtfully. The view was superb. And so were the staff and manager. I was very pleased that we had a room on the same level and did not have to negotiate any stairs. The manager went out of her way to accommodate our needs, especially preparing breakfast for vegetarians!

The lounge and dining area should have a fireplace, especially during winter as it was really cold sitting there.t The bedroom lacks decent seating and the positioning of the TV requires attention. A sofa or 2 comfy chairs would have done the trick.

fantastic position viewing the lagoon from well above see level. The apartment is beautiful, well equipped, with big bedrooms and a terrace we unfortunately could not take advantage of because we travelled in winter. The apartment is warm... not everywhere we found the same situation... We used the laundry service; in half a day everything cleaned and ironed at a very reasonable price. Breakfast included served by the fireplace is giving you something invaluable. We will come back if we will visit SA again.

Anita is one of the best hostesses I’ve ever met. She made us feel at home and helped a lot during our trip. The property is so beautiful and warm, which you can get everything you need(before you request). The house is so clean and cozy with nice and quiet view. And professional staffs are so helpful. My family love our stay in Anita’s property so much and we truly hope can visit here again. Anita and her staffs bring us best memories in Knsyna!

Nothing at all. We like everything.

The room was clean and cozy with a lagoon view. There was a folder with suggestions of activities and eateries, which is really helpful. The lady who assisted us with the check-in and out was very polite. The breakfast was freshly cooked and delicious with a stunning view of the lagoon.

The place is impacted by the load shedding, however for us it wasn't an issue. There is a torch in the room provided by the property.

AMAZING !!! We simply loved our stay and would come back again if ever in Knysna. The 2 bedroom apartment was a home away from home. Views were spectacular (we didnt want to leave the balcony). Breakfast was one of the best. My daughter has egg allergy and Anita was so kind to make eggless pancakes for the kids every morning. If you have a chance to stay here, dont miss the opportunity !

The loadshedding caused hassle as facility doesnt have generator (understandably). So guests just need to be mindful of that.

Room was spacious & clean. Host Anita is friendly and caring. We had a nice patio outside, that was perfect to have a glass of wine whilst enjoying the view of the town and lagoon below. View from the breakfast terrace was stunning (day or night). Even tho, the guest house is a bit uphill, we had lovely walk down to the town.

Excellent room, with magnificent views Nice breakfast Very confortable bed Everything clean and well decorated Superb service, specially from Anita Location is a bit hidden, but it pays with the marvellous views and it's near the waterfront and city centre.

Shower is not bad, but it could be stronger.

First we received very good instructions for finding the place and then a very warm welcome. The views from the room and the breakfast area over the bay are stunning. There is lots to do in that area and a lot of helpful information is made available here. We enjoyed our stay very much

The breakfast was amazing. The guest house manager Anneta does a great job in making you feel at home !

The property is a bit old. On top, no generator or solar so you get really impacted by the loadshedding and any other power disruption. For my 1 night stay, I didnt have power for 8+ hrs so had to resort to charging my phone in the car
