We were very impressed with Mike the owner who was a fountain of knowledge, suggesting the best local hotspots to visit. He immediately made us feel very welcome, relaxed and at home. He was on hand and present throughout breakfast, which was absolutely delicious with plenty of choice and plenty of it. The breakfast chef and our room cleaner were both friendly and full of smiles at all times. We loved our comfortable room, very spacious, spotlessly clean with everything we needed and could want. We had two wonderful nights sleep on a super comfortable bed. Great idea having an honestly bar filled with a great variety of drinks. The views from our room were spectacular!

had a fantastic experience at Beacon House in Knysna. The apartment was spotless, spacious, and beautifully furnished—everything you could possibly need was thoughtfully provided. The sea view from the room was simply breathtaking and added so much to the relaxing atmosphere. A special thank you to Amarille, the manager, for her warm hospitality and professionalism—she truly went the extra mile to make our stay comfortable. Highly recommended for anyone looking for luxury, cleanliness, and tranquility in Knysna. I would definitely stay here again!

Wow, from the moment we walked into our room and saw the view we knew we had made a great choice. Our room was spacious,clean with plenty of storage space. There was a balcony with table and chairs facing the ocean. The bed was large and comfy and great to sit in bed watching the ocean waves. There was a kettle, microwave, fridge, toaster, plates, cutlery etc. A separate sitting area. TV with sports channels and free WiFi. For breakfast you preordered the night before, there was plenty of choice and was delicious served in the dining area facing the ocean. A nice easy stroll to the main beach and also a lovely scenic walk along the cliff tops and down to another beach. The property also as a small pool with great views of the ocean. Nico was very friendly and approachable. Overall this was a great place to stay and would definitely stay here again.

A fanstastic guesthouse, very friendly personnel. The location is great on an idyllic island in the Knysna lagoon, with no fences. You can use the canoes, kayaks and bicycles of the house, which we did, and it was amazing. The rooms are good but the common spaces are even better, and really add to a relaxed holiday atmosphere. Our best stay during our trip in South Africa.

An excellent stay at Amanzi where we were able to experiment two different rooms. Both were very comfy. The fisherman suite is awesome with its private pool and very large bathroom. The view from the room is stunning. We loved to be able to do kayaking in the morning (the hotel provides kayak for free). Miriam was very diligent to help us booking some nice restaurants always with a wonderful view seating.

We loved our stay here. The location is incredible, the house immaculate and very comfortable with everything you would need during your stay and the staff were friendly and helpful. Hearing the sound of the ocean while falling asleep, feeling safe, walking to the beach for coffee, a snack, for dinner - all part of a wonderful holiday experience. We will definitely be back and make this an annual visit. Brenton on Sea is truly a restful and magically place to escape to.

The chalet was excellent and the location was even better. From the balcony you had the most stunning view of the sea and the sunsets were amazing. The beach was a little steep to get to but beautiful with all the rock formations on the beach. It was a nice and quiet location even though we were there in the December school holidays. We loved every moment! We drove to Knysna to do some shopping (traffic jams wherever you went!) and were thankful to get back to our chalet for some peace and quiet. Location, location, location.
