Allison
The room was fantastic. The view is breathtaking of course. The staff are all very friendly and welcoming. It was super quiet aside from the roar of the ocean in the heads which we fell asleep to every night. The food is very good too. All in all a very very enjoyable stay. Thank you.
Lee
This was an all around amazing experience. We stayed in the whale suite which had amazing views of ocean and cliff sides. We saw a pod of dolphins before dinner. Dinner was made there by an excellent chef. Highly recommend staying here.
Frieda
Great stay.
Everything was great. The food was really fantastic. The viewpoint room is advertised on Hotels.com as having a king sized bed. The bed in that room is not a king size but much smaller. We were moved to another room with a less spectacular view but we still had a great time.
Rhoma

Beautiful Ocean Views in Knysna
Our room was small, but very well designed and the view was to die for. Sitting outside at night was incredible. They have larger rooms and they all have a great view. Breakfast was very good.
Brad
Romantic getaway on top of the cliffs
Fantastic views from the deck, great rooms and service. Food was very good, bit strange they have rules on having your own food or snacks though (never had that at a guest house before)
Verified traveler
The staff were super friendly and courteous. Would love to stay there again for longer!!!

The location was great, the ocean views were stunning, and we saw dolphins enjoying some play time in the afernoon. The staff and owner were very friendly and hospitable and made us feel at home from the time we arrived until we departed.

Peerless location not matched by the interior fittings. Included breakfast and optional dinner mediocre.

Nur die Aussicht ist 5 Sterne. Das Zimmer wirkte schon teils sehr abgenutzt.
Bjarne
Venue worth to visit
Great to be back at the beautiful venue after 6 years. However the venue needs to maintain an ever doing upgrade and maintenance aa the location and rooms - which will be torn and worn after the years.
Another issue - it suits better to have fresh flowers in the restaurant - than wethered leaves and flowers, as the hotel is a 5 star boutique hotel..

Das Hotel ist sehr gut gelegen und einen traumhaften Blick auf die Hafenausfahrt.
Wir haben viel auf dem Balkon verbracht, um diese Aussicht zu genießen.
Sehr gutes Essen, man darf bestellen, was einen anmacht und sehr freundliches Personal.
Besser geht es nicht, wir kommen in jedem Fall wieder.

Wir waren im Zimmer mit Aussicht - super Terrasse mit super Ausblick- bestest Zimmer um morgens, Abends und auch tagsüber die Sonne zu genießen.
In der Dusche wäre es sicher nötig das Silikon regelmäßig auszutauschen und somit gegen die Schimmelanfälligkeit durch die feuchte Luft zu verbessern.
