This guesthouse is such a gem. The rooms are very modern looking and spotless clean. Very spacious room and with great views. Load shedding was not an issue as they have backup generators. Ample parking space. Special thanks to Wendy, the host. She handled all our tour bookings and always did so with a smile on her face. She also gave us all the information we needed and made us feel at home. Definitely recommend this guesthouse!

Staying at Mount joy was even better than we could have imagined. We enjoyed the view over the lagoon a lot and were crazy about dog Gilbert. He's an angel. Owners David and Johan were very kind and friendly as well and made us feel at home. We very much hope that we have the opportunity to come back here!

We had such a nice stay at the guesthouse Chez Pierre in Knysna on the Leisure Island. It is a very secure place to stay. Pierre is very friendly and dedicated to make your stay as perfect as possible. No matter for what reason you‘re in Knysna, you should not miss on having a Belgian waffle here! Delicious! Breakfast was very good.

We stayed over for the Knysna half marathon and we were so pleased with everything at Pearl View Guest House. Marycke and Conni are great hosts and the chef prepares delicious breakfasts and dinners - we didn't even leave the guesthouse to go and eat in town. Sundowners on the stoep with the sun setting over the lagoon is a must. We will definitely visit again.
