    We loved everything about the property, so comfortable, stunning place, friendly helpful staff and the accommodation was so perfect. The best part was the underfloor heating all over the apartment, heated towel rails and most of all the gas fireplace

    We loved breakfast, bar service, room service, golf area for a walk. We even used their river club equipment for canoeing and have been all alone on the river for over 1 hour.

    We booked an air bnb in Knysna that was completely trashed and not as advertised. I quickly called Simola and talked to Sedrick who quickly found a room that would accommodate my party last second for a couple nights while we were visiting. By far...
