At the tip of Leisure Island and overlooking the Knysna Lagoon, this hotel has an outdoor pool and terrace with panoramic views. Its rooms have a furnished balcony or patio.

Staying at Amanzi was pure magic. The warm, personal service made us feel truly cared for, and every detail of the design was breathtaking – elegant, serene, and perfectly in tune with nature. The views were unforgettable, the atmosphere peaceful, and the entire experience felt like a dream. A true hidden gem in Knysna. Can't wait to come back.

    Lovely apartment in a perfect position for a quiet holiday (we stayed in the middle of winter though), beach walking and whale watching.

    It was beautiful. Genevieve is a lovely host and showed us around and gave us wonderful advise as to where to get supplies and the best oysters which didn't disappoint at all. We loved the guest house. The view was beautiful with amazing sunsets. The beach close by too. We all enjoyed our stay there and should we go back that side will definitely go back there to stay. The location was also perfect for us. It was truly a wonderful stay.

    Pincushion Heights is the prefect location for busy Summer months; away from the crowds. Its close enough to go in to Knysna and a couple of minutes drive to Brenton Beach. Stunning views from the beautifully designed grounds; loved the sundowner deck. Peter and Ursula are charming and accommodating hosts. Apartment was are tastefully decorated and spotless. Booking tip - book the room with a balcony.

    Beautiful area with ocean view. The place is spotlessly clean with spacious rooms. Breakfast was amazing and great host with lovely staff. Nice restaurants close by and easy to explore Knysna and surrounding areas. Highly recommend Brenton on the Rocks Guest House.

    We loved the hide-away feel of Montrose Apartment. It was quiet, surrounded by trees, and all we could hear were the birds. The apartment had everything we could possibly have needed, was comfortable and spotless.The linen and bed were especially comfortable. Our hosts were welcoming, friendly, and available while allowing us privacy. We can definitely recommend Montrose and will be returning on an upcoming trip this year.

    Derrick was an outstanding and impressive host - the most welcoming we ever experienced. He gave us great tips on what to do while in Knysna / Brenton and arranged a lunch reservation for us. The guest house is built with a lot of love and attention to detail. It's only a 5 minute walk (downwards) away from the beautiful beach. Our room was spacious, comfortable and very clean.
