“An excellent flat with a wonderful view. There is a long staircase that may be difficult for elderly people, people with special needs, or those carrying heavy items. Overall, I enjoyed my stay and would recommend the place.”

“An amazing place with a wonderful view. The view from the property was so beautiful that we couldn't tear ourselves away from it. It has a private outdoor balcony and everything you could want is available. It's close to everything, located in the centre of the beautiful island. My three children and I enjoyed our s…”

“Oh my God, we had two wonderful days in this property. The view is fantastic and the property has everything. We grilled our dinner on the barbecue and everything was provided. The location of the property is great, as it is close to restaurants, cafes and shops within a short walking distance. Seeing ships and boat…”

“A great find for us. We were thrilled with the apartment, location and layout. We did think about booking the larger unit next door but were so happy we went with this one. It was perfect and we hope to rent again for a week or two during our annual 3 months in South Africa.”

Located on the edge of Thesen Island with nice balcony, great roof terrace overlooking the lagoon and therefore close to nice restaurants and Île de païn for a delicious breakfast. Nothing to complain about, we would book it again on a nex…”

“The apartment is beautifully decorated and has a very comfortable bed, not too firm. We enjoyed cooking meals and going on walks around Knysna. Location wise it’s very walkable to grocery stores, coffee shops, ice cream and restaurants. The internet speed was around 20 mbps down. Unfortunately the apartment is right…”

“The apartment was modern, clean and very well appointed. The bed was very comfortable. The weather was extremely hot and the upstairs absorbed the heat, so an aircon would have been nice. We did put the large fan on which made a small difference. It is situated opposite the drop off and pick up point for staff at Th…”
