    On the downside, the outdoor pool was unheated and far too chilly for a January dip. The air conditioning unit in one room was dirty and ineffective, and there were issues with housekeeping—such as forgetting to place strawberries at the breakfast buffet. charging for a cappuccino at breakfast felt a bit excessive given the daily room rate. Finally, the cleanliness in common areas left something to be desired, which is not what you'd expect at this level.

    breathtaking view
    helpful staff

    We had a wonderful time! The suite was stunning with a breathtaking view of both the lagoon and the forest. Our kids loved the breakfast variety, and the staff were exceptionally helpful, especially when we faced a dental emergency. We'll definitely be back!

    indoor pool
    beautiful views

    It was just an optimal selection for a short staycation in Knysna with best value. The indoor pool with beautiful views was a highlight for relaxing. Consider cooking your own breakfast instead of the buffet.

    stunning, stunning, stunning

    The views from our Luxury One Bedroom Suite were absolutely breathtaking, showcasing the beautiful lagoon and the golf course. The staff went above and beyond to accommodate our needs, making sure breakfast was ready early for my family. I loved how clean the facilities were, and the spa services added a touch of relaxation to our stay.

    Stunning views and fantastic accommodations

    I had an incredible time during my three-night stay, enjoying spacious, stylish apartments that offered breathtaking views of the golf course and Knysna. The kitchen was well-equipped, and I really appreciated the friendly staff who suggested delicious room service meals after our late arrival. The breakfast buffet truly stood out, providing a great variety of fresh options, making the mornings delightful. I think the restaurant could use a bit more planning, especially during busy hours.

    fun golf course
    great barbecues
    friendly staff
    fully booked spa

    We had a blast visiting the decks by the river and enjoyed some great barbecues. The golf course layout is super fun with five par 3s and a few par 5s for a good mix. The staff were on it, making our stay easy and enjoyable. Definitely check out the golf lessons if you're keen to improve your game!

    The spa was fully booked throughout our stay. We didn't know in advance that we needed to make reservations.

    breathtaking views
    delicious breakfast
    weak phone signal
    obsolete television
    inconsistent housekeeping

    Gorgeous views from the suite enhanced our experience, especially with the tranquil surroundings. Breakfast offered a delightful variety, making mornings a highlight. the phone signals were weak, limiting connectivity. the old TV and lack of channels made entertainment challenging, while housekeeping occasionally missed details that could have improved our stay.
