    I had a fantastic stay at this hotel on a hill overlooking the lagoon in Knysna. The location surrounded by lush green gardens and treetops provided a tranquil and picturesque setting. The rooms, though basic, were equipped with all the amenities I needed, including a clean and comfortable bed. The staff were friendly and provided great service, and the breakfast served on the deck was a delightful start to the day.

    My stay at this hotel was great.

    I recently had a fantastic stay at a guest house in Knysna that exceeded my expectations. the location of this hotel was absolutely breathtaking. Nestled on a hill overlooking the lagoon, I was treated to stunning views of the lush garden and the tranquil water below. It truly felt like a secluded oasis in the treetops.

    All went smoothly, no improvements needed.

    Our family, with two young children, enjoyed our recent stay at a guesthouse with a lovely location. It was a short walk to a lively shopping area and a beautiful lagoon. the room was clean and cozy, with a perfect bathroom and adequate facilities, such as a microwave and fridge. the service was helpful and made the experience feel special. the breakfast was filling and served in-room to accommodate our children's schedules.

    The lack of a reliable internet connection, which was manageable with a bit of unplugging.

    I loved the tranquil atmosphere of this hotel, tucked away in the middle of lush vegetation. The view from my room was breathtaking, overlooking the lagoon. Breakfast was one of the best meals I had during my trip. The staff was attentive and went above and beyond to ensure my stay was comfortable. Parking and hotel facilities were top-notch as well.

    Nothing that I didn't like.

    The view from the balcony was simply stunning and the breakfast was tasty. The surroundings are peaceful, perfect for a romantic escape. We also appreciated the fact that the hotel offered a shuttle service to nearby attractions and had a convenient location close to the beach and restaurants.

    The room was in dire need of renovations. The bathroom was cramped and the shower was challenging to use.

    One of the highlights of our stay at this hotel was the stunning location. Perched high on a hill with views of the lagoon, we felt as though we were in our own private retreat. The lush garden surrounding the hotel added to the overall serenity of the place.

    All in all, our stay was perfect.

    The room had a quaint cottage-style feel with everything needed for a comfortable stay. the balcony had a fantastic view and was a relaxing spot to sit on the lounging chairs provided. the breakfast served in-room was surprisingly good, and the host was attentive and welcoming.

    There were no credit card facilities available which was quite inconvenient. the location was a bit isolated and difficult to find without GPS, making it a bit challenging to get around without a car.
