Incredible
An absolutely stunning lodge with beautiful and considered decor. The views are beyond breath-taking. Hosts Sam and Gordon were warm and welcoming and arranged a private chef to cook a meal for our group of 6, served outside with a view across the lagoon to the mountains - bliss Just sad we couldn't stay longer.

Pure luxury with stunning view
Alkira is simply stunning! This is not your ordinary hotel experience. It is an experience of a different level with a view to be remembered for a long time. The view is so beautiful that you won't stopped smiling. The 'Lodge' is incredible, tastefully designed and finished to the highest standard. Sam is the most incredible host, welcoming, friendly and personal. We extended our stay because we loved it so much. Can't recommend enough!

Fantastischer Blick auf das Meer und die Lagune
Die Lodge ist sehr modern und unser Appartement war sehr großzügig. Samantha, unsere Gastgeberin war sehr freundlich und immer hilfsbereit. Zum Frühstück hat sie uns jeden Wunsch erfüllt. Die Lodge liegt etwas außerhalb von Knysa und bietet einen wunderbaren Panoramablick. Wir kommen bestimmt wieder.
