Leisure Isle Retreat, Knysna, South Africa
Maria made us feel right at home. The place is incredible, and the furniture is equally impressive. We mostly followed the recommendations they gave us. The house is situated in a very safe area, just a 5-minute walk from a restaurant and a coffee shop. The beach is just a 10-minute walk away. It’s the perfect place to stay with a baby. We used the barbecue and beach chairs. Knysna is an ideal break on the Garden Route. We would have stayed longer if we could have!

The Nest on Leisure
The most beautiful Airbnb with the option to go on a free SUP or bike ride in the area. Knysna was lovely and this place felt like home and had everything you could wish for - a cozy fireplace, comfy bed and spacious bathroom.

Relaxed holiday home - Knysna Heads
The view from the house is absolutely stunning, and the location is brilliant. Morné responded very quickly whenever needed and was super friendly. Overall we really enjoyed our stay.

Gantry House
We had a wonderful stay at Gantry House. The location was beautiful and convenient, the house was spotless, the amenities were excellent and Liddi was communicative and efficient. We’d love to stay again.

Thesen Island water lifestyle
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

Weavers Rest: Lakefront Bliss & Water Sports
What a wonderful tranquil place to stay! We enjoyed the breakfast and meals in the conservatory overlooking the beautiful surroundings. Accomodation was clean and very roomy. We had we all had a wonderful stay there and were so sad to be leaving it. Thank you and we felt very safe throughout our stay

TH40 - Thesen Islands
Carla was lovely and the house was stunning. A great location with lovely views and easy access to a host of great shops and restaurants. We would love to come again. Highly recommended

Riverside home.
Mark assisted us in a great way to reach the place, the entire community was so good located on the river bed. It was a short stay for us, wish to stay there for a longer period in the future. All of us especially kids loved the surroundings. Overall a great place to stay 😄

Thesen View - exquisite views with canoe & bikes
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.

We stayed in one of Tine’s luxury glamping caravans as the room on AirBnB got double booked. Tine solved the matter very professionally and upon arrival she was very friendly and helpful. Thanks for our short but beautiful stay!

Sunshine, views, beach, kitchenette, bbq.
What an amazing little place! We loved everything about our stay, apart from our visit being too short. "Room With a View" definitely lived up to its name, absolutely beautiful views. It was spotlessly clean, very comfortable with absolutely EVERYTHING you could possibly need. John, was so warm and welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. We loved our stay and getting to see how beautiful Knysna is. Thank you so much to you all, we will most definitely be back and hopefully for much longer! x

Best Little Beach Bungalow in Nature's Valley
This bungalow transported us to our childhood holidays. As a family with 2 kids, we were so comfy and just loved this spot. Comfortable bedrooms and bathrooms. Outdoor taps to wash off all the sand. Cute kitchen with everything you need, and a cozy lounge for card games. Lovely deck with bright red chairs that we assume resemble the colour of the Loerie's wings, that fly past everyday. Quick and easy to walk to the beach and the kids loved riding their bikes safely to the shop for ice creams. Endless activities, walking, biking, fishing, hiking, swimming, paddling. Honestly PARADISE on earth. The lagoon is beautiful but we loved the walk over to the sea against that huge mountain where the otter trail ends. The turquoise blue ocean was incredible. We cannot wait to come back to our new favourite place!

Lekkerkry Cottage
An amazing stay ! Highly recommended !

Self-catering cottage near Uniondale
Staying in this tiny house was like stepping into a fairytale! The space is beautifully designed, cozy, and full of charming details that made our stay unforgettable. Sheena is the best host you could ask for—warm, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect. Can’t wait to return to this magical little getaway!

Garden Road Cottage in Belvidere Knysna
