Waterfront vacation rentals in Greater Plettenberg Bay

This space is perfect for 2 people for a getaway, the 2 patios were a bonus, space to simply be. This is a prime spot in These Island, in our opinion, the view over the estuary, the bird life, is magnificent and peaceful Short walk to the restuarants as the Quay in town. Access to the canoe, SUP Bikes and golf sticks was a bonus, we used them all and had great fun, without having to have packed all our own gear. Diane and her family and the housekeeper, Patience were fabulous, helping us with our luggage, cleaning and checking in on us regularly. We will return for the simplicity of being away without stress.

Colette was truly a gracious hostess, going the extra mile to accommodate our every need/wish/want. The boat trip was such a nice addition to our weekend experience. And that view, ah man, what a view ... Thanks to Colette and Wayne for opening up their home to us xx

My partner, Michelle, and I had a fantastic stay at Heidi’s place. The apartment is perfectly located within walking distance of the waterfront, making it easy to explore the area. We especially loved starting our mornings with coffee at Trinity Coffee, conveniently located just downstairs. Heidi was a pleasure to communicate with—responsive and helpful throughout. We highly recommend her apartment for a comfortable and convenient stay!

We had a wonderful view, the apartment was spacious and had everything we needed to feel at home. I really appreciate it when you find some much needed supplies in kitchen and bathrooms that you don't expect and storage space and neatly packed cubhoards.

We had a great time and would come back any time. The apartment had a nice pool, a washing machine, a dryer as well as a dishwasher which was great.

Amazing place with one of the beach around at your foot. 200% recommended! We will visit again.

Highly recommended! Convenient location in the lovely River Club. Paula was a great host and so helpful.

Lovely place in a beautiful and serene setting. We had some issues with hot water (geyser failure which does not happen often!) and power (normal in SA) and through it Andrew was very involved sorting it out quickly and keeping us informed right the way through. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will likely be back if staying in Knysna again.

Lovely place to stay at & the location was great to explore Knysna.

what an incredible stay, now my favorite home away from home. thoughtful touches throughout the home almost tops the incredible view and perfect location. great for family, great for all weather with the indoor braai, fireplace and stacking doors. we will definitely be back. thank you Kady and team for a great stay.

My family had a fantastic 3 nights in your accomodation and found ourselves loving your family friendly house.We did have 1 small hiccup with one of the drains being block but after a phone call was sorted out very quickly by a plumber.A very happy clean and lovely place and would highly recommend.

We really enjoyed our stay here, it was peaceful and quiet with gorgeous views. Tendai was very responsive to all queries and always available. It was clean, spacious, comfortable and well stocked with everything we needed for cooking and braaing. The lagoon is literally across the road, the kids loved exploring and finding items like rays, crabs, expired jellyfish etc. It was definitely a memory making holiday and would highly recommend this option.

Very comfortable for 9 adults. Would recomend! Amazing views

Hi Mark and Liz, Thank you for hosting us in your beautiful home. We had the most wonderful break away. The house is amazing, and exceeded all of our expectations! From the beautiful decor to the extremely well equipped kitchen and the post card views, we couldn't have asked for any better. Your care, hospitality and kindness goes wat beyond and was so appreciated. This is "so long" and definitely not "good bye" as we will be back. Kind regards The Fouché Family

We have spent many holidays on Thesen Islands over the years, renting multiple homes on multiple islands. We have now found the perfect home for us. What you arrive to is so much better than any description or picture and exceeded all of our expectations without exception. It's a stunning North facing location with a wonderful view up the main canal. The home is very well appointed and most notably, for us and for my wife, spotlessley clean. Also very notably we were supplied with the small things that make a big difference and give you a sense of generosity by the hosts; toilet paper, dishwasher tabs, sponges, washing powder, hand soaps etc (you'll be shocked how many home stays don't supply the small things). We are so appreciative to Ilsebe for sharing her lovely home with us. 2026 is already booked. Can't wait! The Farrells

We had a lovely stay. The house is perfectly located, very close to the beach and lagoon. It has everything you need for your holiday and very clean. Thanks Denny.

Joys accommodation was exactly as described and like the photos. The flatlets were clean and had stunning views of the Knysna lagoon. Joy was responsive, accommodating and very friendly. Highly recommend staying at this accommodation amd great value for money.

A huge thank you to Peter and Chery! From the moment I arrived, I felt completely at home. The apartment is beautiful and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The highlight for me was the stunning view from the balcony — both in the morning and at sunset, it was absolutely breathtaking. The place is spotless, fully equipped, and thoughtfully maintained. Nothing was missing in the kitchen or bathroom. I truly enjoyed every moment, and if I come back, I’d love to stay here again without a doubt!

Thank You for having us over. It felt Like Home and we really appreciated and followed the tips your husband gave us.

We Stayed at Andrei’s place, the location and the apartment itself were amazing, perhaps even better than the pictures. The only downside I would say is the bedroom on top of the coffeeshop as it gets quite noisy from 6-7 in the morning. Other than that, definitely recommend it and will visit back again.

Loved staying at her incredible place. The sunset was stunning, everything very clean and Anja gave us some wonderful recommendations. She is a super friendly host - Definitely recommend her place.

What a great stay!! Friendly and helpfull hosts

We had a wonderful stay. Via the app we received all information for entering the property. Communication with Melanie was super efficient and fast!

Great stay! Two favourite spots were definitely the stoep with beautiful view and nice patio furniture, main bedroom with big sliding windows with another great view.
