Scenic spot

Scenic spot on nice waterfront. Good swimming and canoeing available free. Some cabins on steep steps with views, others easier access with limited views. Can walk across the sands at low tide but car needed for visiting Knysna to do anything else. Small café nearby for breakfast, 2/3 miles to bars and restaurants.

What made me give less that a 10 is that I was expecting more peace, based on the pictures. Bungalows are very close together and everybody was BBquing. Holiday weekend. Hard to sleep early and even breathe, with the smoke. Other than that, perfect location

Local belo e aprazível

Localizado em uma área de vegetação exuberante e de belas paisagens próxima ao The Heads View Point. Se você decidir ficar hospedado por aqui é recomendável que venha de carro. Como o resort fica de frente para um lago e ficamos hospedados no inverno (julho/2019), as temperaturas estavam ainda mais baixas. O único senão é que a unidade na qual ficamos não possuia sistema de aquecimento/calefação e a minha esposa reclamou muito do frio à noite.

Nice hotel close to beach

If you are ok with self catering this place is good. The only problem was parking was tight when all spaces filled you had to work hard to get small car out of allocated space

Great hotel

We loved this hotel. The cabins are beautifully decorated with everything you could possibly need in the kitchen and more. It is on the lagoon which is stunning and just a short drive up to the eastern head viewing point. Would definitely recommend this.

Nice hotel with beach activities

The resort was nice and had beach activities. The location of the resort is really nice and property itself is beautiful and maintained. The parking on uneven surface is tricky, otherwise parking is not an issue. You can park car just next to your chalet. Overall we liked the resort.

Possibly best location in Knysna

everything was excellent. the upgrade to the waterfront room was completely worth it. Only thing that was not OK was the WiFi. Our room had no signal or a very weak signal at best. We gave up on using it.
