A fantastic guest house in the hills directly above Knysna. We felt very welcome at the Lazy Lion, and Ella and Ricardo were really superb hosts who gave us good recommendations for the town! The rooms were spacious and luxurious, and the lounge and the pool very inviting. When we are in Knysna the next time we will definitely stay at their lovely guesthouse again!

Intimate accommodation with a taste of home. I have no words to describe the care shown by Tina and Mel, perfect hosts who care about every detail for their guests. The apartment is complete, the decoration is wonderful (I loved it!!!), apartment in a quiet and silent street, and of course close to everything Knysna has to offer (bars and restaurants). The bonus of this accommodation is its dogs, which are beautiful and super cute. I loved every moment!!!!

We loved the location and interior design of this apartment. It is definitely in the top 3 of nicest accommodations we stayed at in South Africa. Located at walking distance from the Waterfront and just a really nice apartment to 'come home' to and relax. We highly recommend. The self check in process makes it easy to choose your own arrival time, which we very much appreciated.

    De View was the perfect place for us to stay for 3 nights. The location was ideal as it was close to town and many of the attractions we wanted to see. The property itself is clean, neat and very comfortable. The hosts thought of everything one might need. The hosts themselves are amazing! They were ready to help and make our stay comfortable. The breakfast and the view is something to rave about. We could have easily stayed longer.
