We stayed in the "Oyster Catcher " room and could not hsve been more satisfied. The room was large with a large wardrobe /changing room and an absolutely fabulous bathroom. The views from the room were stunning with the beach very close and the Heads astonding you throughout the day. Breakfast by the pool was excellent and Deborah, our hostess,... More

Great location: facing the beach and with the best views over the heads. My wife and myself stayed in the Oyster catcher room, our son in the lagoon room; both rooms were well equipped and had very comfortable beds with beautiful linen. The breakfasts were delicious and on the last day Deborah even made us a special Belgian waffle breakfast.... More

This has to be the best place to stay in Knysna. Not only is the hostess wonderfully friendly, a good cook, and so helpful, but the rooms are gorgeous, the view superb, and the position perfect. We had three wonderful nights here in this paradise of a place , very central for seeing the main garden route attractions. Our room... More

Oh Island living. We loved it. Stayed here for 4 nights and we could have not asked for anything better. We were 10 steps away from the beach. Breakfast by Debs always delish , morning walks on the water (low tide = walking on water, high tide you could take the kayak). Leisure Isle is a beauty and Bollard House... More
