The caravan was very comfortable and warm. The wood for Braai was provided. Very quiet and peaceful. Surrounded by nature. The host is a very beautiful, warm, welcoming lady. The place is safe and secure. Everything you need for camping is provided including charged lamps incase of loadshedding. Oh my word, their bathrooms and toilets beautiful and clean. Towels, toilet paper, matches are provided. I am from the rural of the Eastern Cape nothing is surprising about the road it's not bad and also considering that it's a farm. Will definitely go back there.

    I only stayed for one night but wish it could have extended my stay. Isola Bella was a perfect location on the waters edge of the Knysna lagoon. I felt very safe walking around the island and enjoyed the magnificent views. The self-catering unit was quiet and very well equipped. I loved the comfy bed and the lovely en-suite bathroom.

    Fabulous place! Wonderful view over Knysna, beds were big and comfy, excellent showers, great location as we could walk down to the Waterfront. The weather wasn’t quite warm enough for us to make the most of the pool but still great to have a private pool and outdoor space. Hosts were also lovely and helpful with suggestions for things to do and places to eat.

    This a great location. Walking distance from The Waterfront and shops, just off the N2. The rooms were very comfy and breakfast was left in the fridge for us. We didn't get to speak to the owners but we're allowed to check in early and leave bags before our 2.30pm Featherbed Boat trip. Also liked the USB charge point in bedside lamps. Stunning view too.

    The pictures don't do the place justice. It was excellent value for money. All the rooms were comfy and it had everything we needed. Bonus was the invertor :)

    The 2 bedroom "cabin" was beautifully decked out with a comfortable sofa, comfy beds and a nice wooden outdoor dining setting and deck chairs on the verandah, which had a lovely partial view of the Knysna lagoon. All the kitchen pots, utensils and crockery is Le Creuset, which impressed us, and was nice to use. The braai worked well and kindling and firewood was included. The lovely the lagoon was great for relaxing under the milkwood trees, and to step off for a swim in the lagoon at high tide.

    Beautiful tranquil gardens, the beds were so comfy and both beds had electric blankets for the cold evenings. I would definitely recommend this to all our friend and friends. The domestic cleaner was lovely and so friendly and Mike was very helpful with getting our DSTV to work.

    Cottage was beautiful, with great touches like quality block out curtains that closed and opened with ease. The shower in cottage 12 was out of this world, awesome water pressure, very comfy bed and nice and warm rooms. And of course having a coffee machine with proper coffee pods made my morning!! Such a beautiful place with very helpful and friendly staff, wish I had spent more time there, I will definitely stay there again
