Knysna Moons exceeded our expectations! The house was pristine, equipped with high-end amenities. Our stay was incredible! Being so close to all the kids' activity spots made our trip hassle-free and enjoyable. The house provides a comfortable relaxing space and is perfectly located close to a range of entertaining activities. Jacques was exceptional, more than accommodating and ensured a seamless, comfortable stay. Highly recommended!

From booking to checkout Doug and Carla were great hosts. Doug accommodated a late check-in, helped us register with security to access Thesen Island, and took us to the property for a walk-through. The home was spotless, incredibly spacious, and had every utility and modcon you need. A pleasant surprise was the addition of a pool between booking and arrival. The outside space and boat deck make for the ultimate Knysna vacation spent on the water. The restaurants and bars of Thesen Harbour Town are a 5 min walk. We will be back. Thank You!

we had such a lovely stay at Samantha’s place. pictures truly don’t do justice to what the house actually looks like. it’s incredibly stunning, the area is so tranquil & private and her space feels like a home away from home. additionally, Sam was such an amazing host, communicated well throughout, answered any questions we had with urgency & ensured our check-in was as seamless as possible. thank you so much, Sam! :)

Great place to stay in Knysna. The place has all the amenties required and is also kid friendly. The place is spotless and remains so as there is a very friendly cleaner that comes in daily. Great location with great views, and close to many popular restaurants in the area. I will definitely be returning when back in Knysna.

Beautiful, spacious house in stunning and peaceful surroundings. The deck area was superb and our favourite bit of the house. The grounds around the property were fantastic, with access to the lagoon for kitesurfing and swimming, as well as tennis and a gym. The neighbours were super friendly, with a real community and safe feel to the complex. This was the perfect spot for us as a group for a relaxed and sporting week and we would love to come back! Ingrid was a great host, with lots of helpful suggestions and recommendations. We were welcomed and checked out by the cleaners who were incredibly nice and helpful.

Idyllic in every way! The house is spotlessly clean, well appointed and extremely spacious – perfect for our multi-generational family stay which included two young children. The kitchen was extremely well equipped (we’re keen cooks and often find rented homes are poorly set up in this regard), the bedrooms were big and the shared spaces were generous and very comfortable. Can’t rave enough about this house in one of our favourite holiday spots – can’t wait to return!

This was a safe area where we could walk through the neighborhood. It is close to everything in Knysna. It was very clean and having a washer was really helpful. Wifi seemed slow. The property has a lot of steps, but that was fine for our family. It was nice to have multiple seating areas so we could sit together or spread out when we wanted to. Host offered information on local attractions and had coffee, milk, and sugar for when we arrived.

What an amazing place you have Cally! Thank you for allowing us into your lovely home in Knysna. Situated on Thesen Island, the home is ideally located- close to all amenities. One thing to note is that if you plan to visit in winter, the house is rather cold. Cally was very helpful in switching on the under floor heating, which- after a little while warmed up the place nicely!

Catherine’s home exceeded my expectations, and already from the description, I expected something special. As hosts, Catherine and her husband give you a professional 5+* experience without any hint of interference. I initiated a personal introduction myself and they responded happily. The home is incredible: the location, the views and everything you may need inside for a comfortable, 5* quality stay ; quiet and private; elegantly decorated. The big thing for me was good WiFi and no power disruption for work, and I couldn’t have been better set up than Catherine’s home. All in all, highly recommended and certainly now in my list to return.
