It was really great to stay at the Lagoon Apartment. The apartment is really modern and stylish. The location was good and quiet (just before the main area), views of the river/sea was exceptional. I should not forget to mention the great hostess also!

We booked a short holiday getaway for my mother and her husband, and they loved their stay at the Knysna Belle. They enjoyed all the activities offered, and we loved receiving photo updates of their kayak and cycling adventures or restful lounges by the pool. Thank you so much for making this holiday so special for them!

Calm, friendly atmosphere in a stunningly beautiful location. It’s a pleasure to communicate with the hostess, who is a very interesting and multifaceted personality. Marisa pays attention to details to make your stay as comfortable as possible. There is an opportunity to be as autonomous as possible and at the same time use a common space. We had the opportunity to have breakfast and dinner overlooking the bay on a beautiful terrace. The room even included beach towels in a bag. At our request, Marisa gave us a beach umbrella and chairs for our trip to the beach. Very quiet. There were no power outages like in many places in South Africa.

The view and location is phenomenal. It doesn't get better than this property. The host communicates promptly on all queries. The restaurants downstairs is amazing as well. The photos and description don't do justice to the actual experience.

I don't think by looking at the listing travellers will realise HOW AMAZING this location is! it literally is ON the water, and when the tide recedes leaves a beautiful private beachfront. The neighbouring properties are situated further along the beach and aroung the bend, so it feels completely isolated and private. This is a gem, and the perfect place to treat a loved one.

The hotel is located on the beachfront, which makes it great for picnics,strolls at the beach and the hiking trails. The breakfast was delicious and had splendid views. The staff was friendly and always ready to help.

Very cute place right on the beach with great people. Not like anywhere we’ve ever stayed and so much character. No breakfast but fantastic breakfast and lunch place just a couple of minutes walk away. Free use of the kayaks to go around the lagoon was a nice bonus!

My wife and I loved the beach viewing points. The private beach is really cool and awesome as you can walk further in without going deep in. We loved the cabins, access to town is easy and close by.
