The Apartment is in a great and safe area. The bed was comfortable. During our stay, there was load shedding in the area, but the apartment wasn't effected since they have solar power.

Amazing place! Our room was large, beautiful with a breathtaking view. The staff was very kind and helpful. It’s a tricky road upp to the castle, but once you’re there it’s worth everything. It’s not far from Knysna center, and it’s easy to go anywhere you want in the area.

It was really great to stay at the Lagoon Apartment. The apartment is really modern and stylish. The location was good and quiet (just before the main area), views of the river/sea was exceptional. I should not forget to mention the great hostess also!

This guesthouse is such a gem. The rooms are very modern looking and spotless clean. Very spacious room and with great views. Load shedding was not an issue as they have backup generators. Ample parking space. Special thanks to Wendy, the host. She handled all our tour bookings and always did so with a smile on her face. She also gave us all the information we needed and made us feel at home. Definitely recommend this guesthouse!

Everything. Amazing host and staff. Room was perfect, clean, comfortable and equipped with all the essential things you need. Lots of free facilities to use including bikes and pool, but we especially loved trying out SUP when the tide was in. Leisure Island is a lovely, peaceful location, a short drive from Kynsna central/waterfront. Highly recommend the Nest, mostly because Tendai and the staff are so accommodating and helpful.

Pierre is an outstanding host. The room we took had a private terrace facing the swimming pool. Breakfast with belgian waffles and french croissants was a welcome add-on.

I don't think by looking at the listing travellers will realise HOW AMAZING this location is! it literally is ON the water, and when the tide recedes leaves a beautiful private beachfront. The neighbouring properties are situated further along the beach and aroung the bend, so it feels completely isolated and private. This is a gem, and the perfect place to treat a loved one.

The hotel is located on the beachfront, which makes it great for picnics,strolls at the beach and the hiking trails. The breakfast was delicious and had splendid views. The staff was friendly and always ready to help.

Very cute place right on the beach with great people. Not like anywhere we’ve ever stayed and so much character. No breakfast but fantastic breakfast and lunch place just a couple of minutes walk away. Free use of the kayaks to go around the lagoon was a nice bonus!

My wife and I loved the beach viewing points. The private beach is really cool and awesome as you can walk further in without going deep in. We loved the cabins, access to town is easy and close by.
