Meravigliosa Guest house a Knysna, con camere vista mare ben arredate e molto pulite. La proprietaria ci ha accolto con estrema gentilezza, facendoci sentire a casa sin da subito e dandoci molte indicazioni e consigli che si sono rivelati preziosi durante il nostro soggiorno. Abbiamo apprezzato particolarmente la cura dei dettagli e l’attenzione nei confronti degli ospiti. La colazione (che si può scegliere il giorno prima) è abbondante e variegata, servita con cura e premura. Consigliamo vivamente questa bellissima guest house!

We are currently staying at this lovely guest house and as many others have reviewed Christa gave us a warm welcome on arrival and our stay has been ideal. Walking distance to the town and the waterfront. Our room is huge and leads out onto a lovely balcony with super views over the lagoon! Breakfast was served in the dining room and was fabulous! Thankyou Christa and Hentie

Christa and Hentie were incredibly welcoming and went more than the extra mile to make sure our group had a memorable two days in Knysna. The accommodation and breakfasts were excellent and the location quiet but convenient for the town centre.

Christa welcomed us with a lovely smile to a clean and pleasant guesthouse. Our room was bright and airy and it lead on to a balcony that overlooked the Knysna lagoon and heads. The guesthouse is located within walking distance to the Knysna town centre and the ferry port from which you can board a ferry to the Featherbed Nature Reserve. We watched a gorgeous sunset and then an amazing sunrise the next morning from our balcony. Breakfast on both days was delicious, it was beautifully presented and served on the balcony. We enjoyed our chats with our friendly hosts Christa and Hentie and felt sad leaving their lovely guesthouse after two nights. Well done Christa and Hentie!

Een ruime kamer, fijn balkon met uitzicht over zee en een lekker ontbijt. Er staat een strandtas met badlakens op je te wachten voor gebruik. De auto parkeer je voor de deur. Tel er een super host bij op en je hebt de perfect stay! Knysna ligt op paar minuten rijden. Net als de supermarkt.

Great service by amazing staff. We had a great experience. Keep up the good work. I had the best coffee in all of SA. I recommend South Villa of Knysna as it is such a peaceful, relaxing and a well situated place. It is close to the city center, easy to reach and has all that you would need for a wonderful experience.
