My wife and I stayed for a couple of nights during our trip to South Africa. Initially we were allocated the downstairs room, based on what our travel agent booked. Marilyn was happy to let us have one of the upstairs rooms, at no additional charge, as the room was available. Well, what a difference. The room was very spacious and beautifully furnished. The view from the balcony was just stunning. There can’t be any better views across the lagoon.

Never again, this is my worst value for money ever. Don't expect anything abnormal for your money, just a room with a view, rated maximum a 3-4 star. The price does not fit the room and experience. The rest was acceptable.

Man hat wirklich eine schöne Aussicht auf Knysna von der Villa Paradisa aus. Zudem war das Zimmer recht groß und das Bad anscheinend neu. Wie praktisch überall in Südafrika waren die Eigentümer und das Personal überaus freundlich. Auch das Frühstück war in Ordnung, wenngleich sehr begrenzt in der Auswahl (Eierspeisen, Fruchtsalat und Marmeladentoast). Was uns nicht gefallen hat war allerdings das Zimmer - Teppichboden, antiquierte Einrichtung und keine richtigen Vorhänge, um den Raum abzudunkeln.

Lovely accommodations, fantastic view!!!! Great for couples or romantic getaway. Breakfast with a view, watch the sun come up over the Knysna lagoon, what more could you ask for. Very friendly staff and hosts.

Marilyn is a wonderful hostess, who may us very welcome. We were blown away by the views of the Knysna lagoon , from the guesthouse rooms. The breakfast was excellent with great service. Eunice gave us a warn welcome

First and foremost, the owners condone their staff stealing from their guests. A considerable sum of money has been stolen from my purse which I left in the room for 20 minutes to have breakfast. We received no apology for this from the owners, it appears such incidents are considered a norm in this establishment. Moreover, the photographs of the rooms are misleading, and so are the descriptions: rooms are smaller than advertised and look quite tired, they could do with a renovation (we have seen 3). Overall, this place feels cheap and unwelcoming, there is no way this is a 5*, it is a 3* at best, so do not let the good review fool you. My general feeling is that the owners only care about their profit here, and not about quality of service and their guests, and it is evident wherever you look and in every interaction with the owners and staff. The only positive thing I can say is the view from the property is spectacular. We left after one night even though we were booked for four, as the experience overall was shockingly bad.

What a lovely place overlooking the city and bay. To wake up and sit out on the terrace Was such a pleasure. They were kind enough to place our friends in the room next to us so we could visit and enjoy the views from our balcony. The owners are very courteous and he would prepare breakfast to our choice. Nolita an employee was just lovely and friendly. I would highly recommend this place.

Villa Paradisa is a top Guest House with a lovely friendly family feel, the result of hosts Marilyn and Martins welcoming and relaxed manner. Our 2 day stay was perfect (only wish it was longer). Our room was luxurious and very comfortable with a breathtaking view, a panoramic sweep across the lagoon to Knysna Heads. We stretched our legs and walked into town, feeling very safe and taking in the flora of more impressive properties en-route. Marilyn provide us with a selection of restaurants to eat (you won't be disappointed) and taxi details to call for our return. Breakfast was a joy, more stunning views, freshly cooked to order and the opportunity to find out a little more about our excellent hosts.
