“Room with a view”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 October 2011

people found this review helpful

Neat single and double storey wooden chalets. We stayed in upper storey cottage with balcony overlooking the lagoon. Accommodation very comfortable and clean, serviced daily by pleasant staff. Grounds and pool area well maintained. Security is good. A little far from the Waterfront but none the less very well situated.

Room Tip: Try for an upstairs chalet overlooking the lagoon

“Nice enough ...”

Well located and convenient, but a bit away from the Kysna Waterfront. Rooms look a bit tired and bedrooms are quite small, making it difficult to unpack/pack luggage. Parking space was very tight for our 8-seater van so we had to park it quite a bit away from our chalet. Good value, but that's really all!

A fab place to stay and so central to everything.
Bedrooms spotless and very comfy.
Superb views and a super well fitted kitchen if you want to prepare your own meals.

“Great relaxed atmosphere on the lagoon in knysna, good for a family”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 April 2011 via mobile

people found this review helpful

We stayed 2 nights in a one-bed lagoon front chalet with our one-year-old son in April 2011.

We were very impressed with the size of the chalet and it was very well appointed. We made use of the kitchen and braai facilities and liked the lagoon-side location. We were initially worried about security as there is a public path directly in front of the chalet alongside the lagoon. However there is a security person stationed at this point 24hrs and a laser perimeter overnight. An in room safe is also available.

We used the path ourselves on a number of occasions to walk to town, thessen island or to the local fresh food store for groceries.

The chalet itself is not new, is wood paneled throughout and has older fixtures. It is however great value, a good size and space for family holidays on the knysna lagoon.
