If you are planning a trip along the garden route then Knysna is a must visit spot. The views across the lagoon and the Knysna Heads are amazing and so many options for accommodation from camping by the lagoon to 5* hotels.
It is also a good base to explore the Eastern end on the garden route right up to Gqeberha (Port Elizabeth).
There is also a number of fantastic mountain passes to drive up to the Karoo, but make sure you have a good vehicle and a good head for heights. Knysna is fantastic and well worth a visit.

As a place to stay, Knysna is rather small, and moreover less secure after dark than other places. Knysna and its islands/view points can e.g. easily be visited from Plettenberg where there is much more choice in terms of restaurants. 1 day is more than enough for Knysna.

The views are magnificent.
The views are magnificent. The surrounding areas are also very worthy of visits. Plettenburg Bay, Tsitsikamma, Sedgefield and Wilderness are excellent. Something great to do every day!
Knysna itself is a little run down and touristy, after all it straddles a motorway (N2), but there are places that are tucked away which are charming.....one goes there however for the views!

Knysna is a quaint town surrounded by lush forests and a stunning lagoon. The iconic Knysna Heads are simply mesmerizing. The clothing shops are a bit pricey and one has to ensure you have enough spending money to have a good time.
We enjoyed our meals at Thirty-Four South. Knysna is definitely a tourist
destination.
"Nyanza" means water and the property is both in view of and walking distance to the beautiful Knysna Lagoon. You can walk safely on a paved pathway in either direction to attractions such as Leisure Isle or Thesen Island. Love and care has gone into making guests feel welcome - the beds in the main bedroom were particularly comfortable. The shower had rejuvenating high pressure and abundant hot water - such a luxury. Small but perfectly formed, the little personal touches all made for a restful stay. We will be back.
We arrived at the Premier hotel Knysna shortly before lunch and we were greeted by super friendly and helpful staff. We were too early for check in, but we relaxed at the pool with drinks, entertainment (bingo!) and an awesome pool-side lunch. We immediately felt like we were finally on holiday. The room was massive, the food was amazing and the staff were incredibly attentive. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone searching for comfort, style and friendly staff. Breakfast was amazing and fresh.
Fantastic location close to town with wonderful views right across Knysna to the Heads. The host has excellent attention to detail and provided us with all the info we could need, incl local restaurant specials and suggestions.
The property is extremely well set up for load shedding and the wood-fired hot tub is kept warm throughout the day by the staff.
The main house is massive and well furnished, with all the comforts one could require, and it's quiet at night in spite of being so close to town.
The Private Estate, Lagoon Apartment is a lovely place in the Countryside to dicover Knysna, Lagoon islands, the Heads and the pearls on the near Indian Ocean coast Brenton-On-Sea and Buffels Bay. The apartment is light in a beautiful in white style with pritty details, and has a small patio with a view into the Garden. Ohne must emphasize the pleasant and cordial hospitality , and, last not least, a perfect and sensible organization.
This home perched high above the Kysna lagoon was extraordinary. Our rom was immense, the bed so comfortable and the views exceptional. The lovely infinity pool and gardens were luxurious and inspiring. We enjoyed walking own to Thessen Island, walking on the beach and would have loved to do the forest hikes if we had been there longer. Breakfast was lovely.
Great studio, very modern, feels like home, rainforest shower, sweets as a warm welcome, perfect guiding from host via introducing video, safe parking in a parking garage, shops, restaurant, waterfront, all near by., small balcony, small kitchen, so perfect also for a few days, very friendly and helpful host, definitely to recommend.
the units are beautiful spacious and provide everything you need to make your stay comfortable. i like that you have the self catering and hotel restaurant option. the gym sauna and heated indoor pool is just a big bonus and i loved spending time there. breakfast is amazing good quality and fresh with lots of variety.
Great little apartment in Knysna centre. Good location to walk to all shops and waterfront. Clean and cosy apartment. Kim was a good host and provided clear instructions on how to access car park and apartment. I left a shirt in the wardrobe, but Kim arranged to get it back to me (thank you again)
Nicely furnished bright apartment in a beautiful complex, just a few steps from the Knysna waterfront. Great for self catering in the well equipped kitchen - but also plenty of great restaurants around. We travelled with a baby and received a cot and some toys - really appreciated
Very nicely decorated hotel. The staff are friendly and helpful. The breakfast is superb and probably the best we have ever had. The location is perfect in a very safe area close to a number of good restaurants and a short walk to the Knysna Waterfront area.
excellent views of the lagoon. Very secure and well located on the Knysna waterfront. The hosts are extremely helpful and friendly and go out of their way to make your stay enjoyable. I would highly recommend this venue for an unforgettable experience!
The views and staff are exceptional, offering top-notch comfort and breakfast services. I highly recommend this place to friends and family without hesitation. Its prime location allows easy access to all the attractions around Knysna.
Such a beautiful place - spacious, comfortable, and right on the water. Also right at the Waterfront attractions. Excellent place to relax, and appreciate the lagoon area.
The venue the service and the friendliness of the staff was superb. We thoroughly enjoyed the magnificent views onto Knysna, the lagoon and the heads, to mention a few.
