"In general the hotel is very run down. Things falling apart and dysfunctional, including pool area and umbrellas and gardens. The resort is in desperate need of serious maintenance. Also, no wi fi in rooms for a 4 star hotel is not really acceptable. Poor conditions somewhat compensated for by the first class and much appreciated service from Petrus and some of his staff -especially chef and Thabisa."

Villa Castollini

Villa Castollini

10/10 Excellent
"A really beautiful property up on the heights with stunning views across the lagoon towards Knysna and a nice balcony to sit out in the evening and lovely gardens and pool ( book the deluxe room it’s worth it !) Huge comfy bed and big bath tub, loved the fluffy robes . Breakfast was delicious with a great choice of fruits, yoghurt, cereals, cheese and ham , breads and a cooked breakfast made to order . Well stocked bar with lovely wine choice and a nice guest sitting room . Two nice restaurants within a 5 minute drive , Butterfly Blue on the beach at Brenton was superb . Knysna was about 12 mins drive away Francois and the Staff could not have been more helpful helping us celebrate our wedding anniversary and we appreciated the extra little touches and we loved the peacefulness yet still being close to the town. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommended a stay here ."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Knysna Heights?
The best area to stay in Knysna Heights is the central Knysna area, particularly around Thesen Island and the Knysna Waterfront.

Thesen Island is an exclusive development connected to the mainland by a bridge, offering a unique blend of residential living and holiday accommodation. It's known for its Venetian-style canals, beautiful architecture, and a selection of excellent restaurants and boutique shops. The area is very walkable, with boardwalks lining the waterways and plenty of spots to enjoy the views.

Couples looking for a luxurious and tranquil escape will find Thesen Island particularly appealing. Many accommodations here offer stunning lagoon views, and the island's private beaches and access to water activities like kayaking provide a relaxing experience. The nearby Thesen Harbour Town has a range of dining options, from casual cafes to upscale restaurants, superb for evening meals.

For families, the Knysna Waterfront offers a lively and convenient base. Located just a short distance from Thesen Island, it's the hub for boat trips, including excursions to the Knysna Heads and sunset cruises. The Waterfront features a variety of family-friendly restaurants, craft markets, and often has live entertainment.
When is the best time to go to Knysna Heights?
The best time to visit Knysna Heights is during the spring (September to November) and autumn (March to May) months, when the weather is pleasant and comfortable for outdoor activities.

During spring, the average temperatures range from 18°C to 25°C, with less rainfall. This season is ideal for exploring the natural beauty of the area, enjoying boat trips on the Knysna Lagoon, or hiking in the surrounding forests. The Fynbos, the unique local vegetation, is often in bloom, adding to the scenic appeal.

Autumn offers similar mild temperatures, typically between 20°C and 27°C, and generally clear skies. This period is great for those who enjoy golfing, as the courses are in excellent condition, or for wildlife viewing, particularly birdwatching. It's also a great time for leisurely walks along the waterfront without the heat of summer.

The summer months (December to February) are the warmest, with temperatures often exceeding 30°C, and can be quite busy due to school holidays. While good for beach activities, it might be less comfortable for extensive outdoor exploration.
