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! :)

C&M Knysna Luxury Self Catering Home
We spent 4 nights as a family of 4. The property is exquisite and has all the luxury amenities. The views are breathtaking! The house is massive but feels cosy and homely. The hosts are friendly, helpful and accommodating. I’ve now found my new favourite place to stay in Knysna!

I highly recommend this home for your family vacation.

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.

Family Holiday Home along the Lagoon
We stayed at Marc and Cheryl's house for a long weekend but ended staying an extra night. What a gem! The house was incredibly clean, had everything we needed, such a beautiful view and situated in tranquil part of Sedgefield. We have three young boys and they were able to play and keep themselves busy in safe surroundings. We would love to visit again.

Brenton Ferien am Meer beach house
The accommodation was truly wonderful. I stayed there for 6 days and I was impressed by how clean it was and the quality of the provided items. Sinclair Harcus was very kind and professional, and I can’t forget his mother she was extremely respectful and kind. She was truly amazing.

Wonderful Stay with a Stunning View! We had an amazing stay at Silvia’s Cottage! The view is absolutely breathtaking, the neighborhood is peaceful, and the apartment was spotless, lovingly decorated and very clean. Silvia welcomed us warmly and gave us a lovely farewell.

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

Waterside home on Thesen Marina
What an amazing place you have Cally! Thank you for allowing us into your lovely home in Knysna. Situated on Thesen Island, the home is ideally located- close to all amenities. One thing to note is that if you plan to visit in winter, the house is rather cold. Cally was very helpful in switching on the under floor heating, which- after a little while warmed up the place nicely!

Thesen Island Beach House
Absolutely wonderful place to have a family holiday. I loved the fact that we were right on the beach and water. The space has everything you need for a proper relaxing holiday! I would highly recommend this place.

Waterfront bungalow private beach and boat mooring
A little patch of heaven. Very well equipped kitchen for indoor & outdoor cooking. Lovely beds - good mattresses and beautiful linen. Gorgeous cabin for the 6 of us - just great having a little private beach and use of a canoe. The Loerie and Hoopoe visited us. Alison was very helpful in every way. We would love to come back one day.

The White House Apartment
Catherine’s home exceeded my expectations, and already from the description, I expected something special. As hosts, Catherine and her husband give you a professional 5+* experience without any hint of interference. I initiated a personal introduction myself and they responded happily. The home is incredible: the location, the views and everything you may need inside for a comfortable, 5* quality stay ; quiet and private; elegantly decorated. The big thing for me was good WiFi and no power disruption for work, and I couldn’t have been better set up than Catherine’s home. All in all, highly recommended and certainly now in my list to return.
