"Nice hotel to stay in if you want to be near the waterfront or the bus station. I had to check out very early in the morning and the hotel prepared a breakfast bag for me which I really appreciated. The room I checked into was very basic, no slippers or robe for the guests either which was a bit of a let down. The bathroom water was not hot, this was another let down considering that it was a cold winter day. Overall an average experience."

"So good we are staying longer!
Apart from the obvious draw of the fantastic golf course onsite the hotel and spa are a real treasure. Breakfast is to a very high standard. Rooms are spacious but the real bonus is the spa and facilities. Unlike other hotels on the garden route with high costs and limited availability the range of treatments on offer is excellent, staff work hard to fit you in and they are very reasonably priced too.
Reception staff are very helpful and ensure you are aware of all the local walks and things to do.
I’d definitely stay again…. We are already staying longer than originally planned."

Amazing
GGuest UserAccomodation is located on a separate island, which is a gem itself - stunning shoreline, lovely park for walks, a very peaceful place which is also very safe. Great location - road connecting it to the mainland, and just 10 minutes drive from Knysna harbour with all the best eat out places around. We've been treated by Pierre, who is the most friendly and welcoming host. He has designed the place with his love for sailing and the sea in general - everything is very stylish, clean and bright. He is also originally from Belgium, which means you'll also benefit from delicious Belgium waffles as a nice desert treat for your breakfast. You can also ask him about best places to visit, not just around Knysna but all across the West Cape. And there will also be a special something for dog lovers, as there are 2 absolutely adorable labradoodles hanging around when allowed by guests, and they really love to cuddle 🤗 Wish we could stay for more, but will definitely come back next time I'll be around.
GGuest UserWe had a very friendly welcome from our hostess with welcome drinks, a small snack and a scented damp refresher towel. The grounds are beautiful - lush, green and well kept. We were bumped up to a lovely room with a big balcony and view over the pool area and river. The room was very clean and neat. breakfast at the on-site restaurant was delicious and staff were friendly. (the only minus... the coffee was not hot).
Another great thing is that all the activities (canoeing on the river, hiking, mashie golf, etc are included in your room fee!
We would definitely visit again!!
GGuest Userthe location is great! very close to viewpoints, restaurants and overall very safe. the chalet itself is clean, fully equipped with everything you need, with a great beach where you can always take a SUP or canoe. there are a couple of things that need to be mentioned - the smell of damp wood and the slope of the floor in the bedroom - but personally this did not spoil the impression for us, although for someone it may be important. thanks for the hospitality)
GGuest UserThe hotel breakfast was very good. The view was awe inspiring. The room had great coffee available. Staff were super helpful and friendly. Brown eyed manager was really patient with my grandmother and really professional. Loadshedding was a bit of a problem because in the middle of the night the generator switched of and Gran couldn't make it to the bathroom in the dark. The bathroom ventilation was a bit of a problem and the room air conditioner didn't work. For the price I would say it was reasonable but improvements can be made in terms of small helper lights on the stairs. The swimming pool is heated and looks out onto the stars which was awe inspiring to see. Overall I would definitely recommend this hotel.
GGuest UserМестоположение удобное - пешком до набережной. Тихая закрытая территория, красивый сад и бассейн. Вечером хозяин зажигает свечи в саду и оставляет плед, это очень мило. Номера уютные, чистые. В номере есть холодильник, чайник и чай с кофе и молоком. Хозяин очень подробно рассказал, куда поехать, все о достопримечательностях окрестных мест, приготовил карты. Короче, не надо искать места, куда поехать, все сделал хозяин отеля. Отдельно отметим великолепные завтраки! Отличный фруктовый салат, даже с черникой в составе, йогурты, разного вида мюсли и тосты из разных сортов хлеба. Яйца, бекон, сосиски и многое другое. Безлимитный, великолепный кофе. Сам хозяин накрывает на стол! Это очень мило! Рядом с отелем есть отличная пиццерия -uptown, вкусно и не дорого. Нам все понравилось!
LLouisCThe facilities were clean and the room had all necessary amenities. The service was fantastic. Conveniently located and the view from the balcony was wonderful.
ZZi Xuan MelissaStunning views. Staff is very professional , provide excellent service. They are all very friendly & very patient when handling our request. All of them had good work attitude. Thank you & keep up your good work.
SSolo-wandererPili-Pili is a “Great location” on Shedgsfield the beach with single rooms and communal en-suite rooms available with seaviews from the balcony.
Roof terrace gives you a stunning option to enjoy your pre lunch drink.
Proceed downstairs to order and watch your delicious pizza (your choice of toppings) cooked in one of two wood fired ovens.
Staff are all friendly and helpful I strongly recommend staying here.
RRochsWhether indulging in relaxation or seeking adventure, this resort truly had it all. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for an extraordinary getaway, and I cannot wait to return for another amazing stay.
GGuest UserBooked this stay for my parents birthday weekend. The service and concierge kept them very happy and were very responsive and helpful. Property is wonderful and my parents really enjoyed their stay!
