- Scored out of 10, guest rating 9.0Superb - What previous guests thought, 25 reviewsOur stay at Cliffhanger Cottages was incredible and we would highly recommend it to anyone. The attention to detail left us wanting for nothing and we were absolutely blown away by the views, visible from everywhere in the cottage, including the shower! The braii on the balcony & watching the sunset over the mountains are truly highlights of a wonderful trip on the garden route. Close enough to Knysna for shops etc. but distanced enough to fully immerse and hear nothing but nature. Some amazing hikes nearby with waterfalls and streams to bathe in during the summer months. We'll definitely be back next time! Thanks, Dean and Nikita!Guest review byDeanUnited Kingdom
- From US$243.76 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 9.2Superb - What previous guests thought, 405 reviewsWhat an amazing place to stay, my wife and I enjoyed every minute of this beautiful location. The staff were fantastic and catered to our every need, the setting for our evening meal and breakfast was superb overlooking the forest, the food equally superb and amazing value for money. We were lucky enough to book into the spa for a one hour massage and two hour spa experience, which was amazing in the forest setting, the food after was great too. An amazing place.Guest review byStephenUnited Kingdom
- From US$106.48 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 9.3Superb - What previous guests thought, 299 reviewsSo incredibly amazing to be in the trees and nature! A really beautiful experience for anyone who loves climbing trees! Staff was so friendly for our welcoming. These units seem to be built for summer, they did their best to help with visitors in winter like us and provided everything they could, and we battled with the cold. No regrets and we still loved it!Guest review byDianaUnited Arab Emirates
- From US$250.21 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 9.1Superb - What previous guests thought, 1,119 reviewsPezula likely offers best views in Knyssna. The staff, from front desk, spa restaurants are just wonderful and very accommodating. Our 5-year old daughter was offered a massage in a spa which was the highlight of her holidays. The outdoor swimming pool and rooms are excellent. Highly recommend.Guest review byPeterSweden

In the same building there is also a tour operator which offers for example whales watching tour and also restaurants. Location was still quiet at night so we could sleep with open window and hear the ocean.Guest review byRamona1991Austria

Knysna is a beautiful town and a highlight in the Garden Route! A must to visit is the waterfront area. We had a fantastic trip on a yacht to the Heads at sunset with Springtide! The restaurants at the Waterfront are the best in town. We loved 34 Degrees South and Drydock Company. A visit to the Heads is a highlight. Knysna is surrounded with beautiful forest and there are plenty walks to choose from.Guest review byOlivier-Kahlau - 10.0

Lovely seaside town with wonderful restaurants and coffee shops to choose from! Beautiful beaches and views of the surrounding mountains! We loved hiking Robberg and would recommend it to other visitors as well...Guest review byHennie BeukesSouth Africa - 8.0
Great place for a week end especially in summer.
Great place for a week end especially in summer. Adequate shops, coffee shops etc. Nice fish n chips, restaurants and lots of lovely places nearby like Wilderness Knysna etc. Lovely drives up the hills. Views beautiful, riding bikes fine. Walks to Gerickes point.Guest review byMalcolmSouth Africa - 10.0
A beautiful region, with excellent restaurants.
A beautiful region, with excellent restaurants. The Grootrivier and (Western Cape part of) the Bloukrans River passes are exceptional, as is Nature's Valley. The Birds of Eden is THE world leading bird conservancy -- the biggest anywhere with free flying birds in a magnificent forest with a beautiful kloof, waterfall ,,, The nearby Monkeyland and Jukani conservancies are also probably the best in Africa. Thyme & Again restaurant is also a favourite.Guest review byBernhardSouth Africa - 10.0
Natures Valley is very special.
Natures Valley is very special. Most other bays in the area are over developed and commercialised. Natures Valley still captures the time when going to the beach was not all about how magnificent your property was. Lets hope it stays that way.Guest review byBruceNew Zealand - 10.0

Many establishments in the surrounding area do not allow dogs. So you can't eat in many places as no arrangements were made to accomodate dog owners. Some beaches banned dogs completely, even on a leash. I found this attitude very short sighted and unpleasant.Guest review byPeterSouth Africa - 10.0

Buffelsbaai is a unpolished gem and the ocean and surroundings brings a special kind of calm to your soul that is not easy to put pen to paper about! it is beyond your imagination! We wandered around and did the Buffels Bay Hiking Trail and had something to drink at the Beach Restaurant and the people attending to our needs went out of their way to be so very kind and attentive. Buffels Bay is very easy to get around to and everything is SO neat and well kept!!Guest review byHendrienSouth Africa - 10.0
Knysna is a beautiful town and Holiday Destination.
Knysna is a beautiful town and Holiday Destination. There are alot of attractions within close driving distance to visit i.e. Knysna Elephant Park, Monkey Sanctuary, etc. There are also alot of places to visit and explore in Knysna. We needed more time to explore everything, We will definitely visit Knysna again. Knysna and the surrounds are well taken care of and there was no littter that I can think of. The road going out to the heads is in desperate need of resurfacing. We loved the lookout points and scenery at the Knysna Heads. The Italian restaurant Piza'E Vino at the Heads was fantastic, Blend was also great.Guest review byAndrewSouth Africa - 10.0
Plettenberg Bay is a fantastic town.
Plettenberg Bay is a fantastic town. It can get very busy in season but an absolute pleasure out of season. Beaches are exquisite and there are plenty of activities in and around for couples and families. Must recommend the Waffling Whale at Formosa - food is delicious and the staff are amazing. If you want brilliant coffee you need to visit the Sotto's Deli!Guest review byKirstySouth Africa
