A friendly place.

A friendly place. Waterfront area and a lagoon boat trip are a must-do. Plenty of places to visit in the area. Dry Dock restaurant highly recommended. Easy to get around the area although parking in central area a bit problematical. A visit to 'The Heads' viewpoints which is nearby. Drive the 7-passes road for scenery and driving experience. Visit the transport museum in nearby George (it's free!). Margaret's viewpoint on Brenton-on-sea road is nearby and not to be missed.

Everything was nearby, but you need to be there to experiences the wonder of Knysna. It is a must to go visit the Love Gifts store. The Portuguese restaurant food was delicious, but you have to try all the food places there as everything is divine.

I haven't visited Knysna in a long time and sadly I have to say that, in the last few years the city has gone to the dogs, it is 3rd world at best. Restaurants, tourist areas and the natural beauty is still awesome, but the city center is dirty, run down and unsafe to walk around in, especially after dark.

We loved the luxury, high-end feel of the hotel. It has been decorated to a high standard and very modern. We loved how large our bedroom was and with views over the Knysea heads were just incredible. Our breakfast was lovely with freshly baked muffins which were really lovely

The view over the Knysna lagoon towards the heads is spectacular from the large porch. The house is elegant, tidy, and well-equipped with plenty of seating areas. The host supplied ample wood that came in very handy. The beds were comfortable.
