Great location, 10min drive to Knysna Waterfront. Classic and elegant, with beautiful lawn and gardens just in front of sea, pool outside window. Delicious breakfast!

They were renovating at the time so the restaurant and lounge was a little makeshift. The location is beautiful but a little further out of town than I had realised.

what a lovely hotel with great service and friendly staff. We were soo happy. Thank you to the team!

Location was very good and offered multiple views. breakfast good. TEA was made as per our instruction. Room size was great. Heated towel rail and electric blankets nice luxury the manager Sandy was very helpful Enjoyed Netflix

What an incredible stay. The property is right on the lagoon with uninhibited views of the water. The staff were amazing, especially Sandy who gave us some great recommendations. Our room was huge and had everything we could possibly need. The facilities are beautiful and the staff are extremely attentive. We so enjoyed our boat cruise, Alex is a great skipper and I didn't get seasick which I usually do! What a wonderful stay, we will definitely be back.

the rooms are spacious and beautifully decorated, the views are fantastic. it’s a quiet oasis close but feels far away from the busy-ness of knysna

The breakfast was good quality, and adequate in size. The room was nice and large. Nice and quiet.

Will definately be back. Staff were amazingly friendly and helpful. A little peace of heaven. Ideal location. Covid protocol adhered to at all times. Definately recommend this place to anybody wishing to visit Knysna.

This place is the most stately and luxurious place in Knysna. The rooms have a homey feel very cozy. St James is very clean and high class. The staff are very friendly and went the extra mile. The breakfast was the best on our trip so far. There is a complimentary boat that goes out at 2 also sooo wonderful. I really recommend staying here.
