A Slice of Paradise on the Garden Route From the moment we arrived at Views Boutique Hotel & Spa, we were swept away by its unparalleled setting and personalized luxury. Perched above the Indian Ocean, the panoramic views from nearly every corner of the property are nothing short of breathtaking — especially at sunrise and sunset, when the entire coastline glows. Our suite was spacious, immaculately clean, and designed with floor-to-ceiling glass to fully capture the ocean’s beauty. Falling asleep to the sound of the waves and waking up with dolphins dancing in the surf was pure magic. Service was thoughtful, warm, and discreet — the kind of hospitality that anticipates your needs before you even ask. Every team member we encountered was genuinely welcoming and professional. The on-site restaurant offered a refined menu with fresh, locally inspired cuisine, and dining with that spectacular ocean view elevated every meal. Whether you’re exploring the Garden Route or seeking a romantic retreat, Views is an unforgettable destination I would like to thank the manager Ciska and many of the employees like christy, Thembela, Lesley and Alfred for their efforts to make our stay memorable

The hosts both Talitha and her husband were amazing, the cleanliness in that place is exceptional, every appliance you will need is there. Wifi was fast and stable didn't face any issues there. This is such an amazing place to stay in it's soo peaceful and you wake up to the ocean view, we even had a braai one evening since they have a braai area. Finally the beds are super comfortable, slept like a baby.

    I love the small village centre packed with enticing eateries and little shops, where you feel safe walking around on your own. People are friendly and helpful, and you're surrounded by nature - the beach, the river, the wilderness trails, beautiful gardens and narrow roads. The town's footprint is relatively small, and nature's footprint is still large.

    A small village on the east coast between George and Knysna. People are friendly and services adequate for basic needs. Plenty of restaurants catering for a variety of cuisines some of them highly recommended. Beautiful beaches close by and stunning drives into the countryside at your doorstep.

    Wilderness is central to big towns like Knysna and George but is away from the hustle and bustle. Calm, relaxed smaller town with everything you need. Nice restaurants, great beach and wildlife for nature lovers.

    On arrival around 9pm, all the restaurants where closed and there were also no food shops in the area. There were no porters available to bring the luggage in. The hot water settings in the bathtub could not be adjusted to an acceptable temperature. The room had a musky smell. The breakfast the following day was not a buffet as expected and served directly from the kitchen. Our stay was from the Friday to Monday. We booked out the next day and requested a refund as the facilities was not as what was advertised. No refund was given. I will definitely not be staying there again

    We loved that you feel, smell and see nature all around. So much beauty to continue exploring. Grocery shopping was a bit limited in Wilderness. With only the Spar and not a great variety in meat. Would be wonderful to have access to buy local produce - if that was promoted more eg local dairy, farmers etc.

    Mes Amis is a beautiful guest house, with very comfortable, gorgeously appointed rooms, in one of the most beautiful spots in South Africa. Paul and the team were excellent in every way, making us feel completely at home and going out of there way to ensure we are comfortable and well looked after. The house has direct access to the stunning Wilderness beachfront, and is perfectly situated to enjoy both sunrise and sunset with fantastic coffee or a glass of wine. Absolutely recommended!

    When you manage the winding, steep road to the house, you are rewarded with the nicest loft. This is a great location to explore Wilderness and the whole Garden Route NP. The big windows provide a fantastic view, the additonal terrace/patio is very nice. Perfectly equipped kitchen with coffee, tea, milk, a bottle of lovely wine.

    We liked everything but most of all the location right on the beach (definitely one of the best in Wilderness) and the fantastic staff. Tim is absolutely charming and all his team incredibly friendly and efficient. We were there for a week and were sad to leave. But we hope to be back on our next visit to South Africa.
