This is an exceptional guest house. Our room was spotless, the bed extremely comfortable and the bathroom had a walk-in shower that for once did not leave a swimming pool all over the floor. The breakfast was perfect and in beautiful surroundings. The views over the lagoon are stunning. It's quiet and within walking distance of a fantastic restaurant/bar - Lindy's Table.

If you’re looking for a great view, great service and an immaculate accomodation then this is the place! Michelle will go above and beyond for all your requirements, her breakfasts are amazing as are her little ‘extra’ bakes.

The Knysna Belle is an amazing place to stay. The staff treated us warmly from the start, and made us feel as if we were family. We stayed in the Captains Quarters, which I believe is their largest suite. It sits on the second floor, overlooking the harbor inlet. This room has a massive deck with lounge chairs, sofa, and other outdoor items needed to make your comfortable as you relax watching the tides come in and out. The room is extremely spacious, with a large king bed and sitting area. The bathroom ensuite is equally equipped. They offer paddleboards, bikes, and other items, but we did not use them this visit; however, i am sure they are very nice. Each morning the staff prepares an excellent breakfast. In our opinion, the Knysna Belle is the best place to stay when visiting this area.

Leisure Island is a stunning location and The Knysna Belle complemented it so well. The house is stunning, as was our room, and the welcome and attentiveness of the staff was fantastic. The fact that so many people return here each year speaks so much for it.

The Knysna Belle Guest House is nicely located on Leisure Isle, giving a safe holiday feeling. Besides the wonderful and friendly hosts you can enjoy using the bikes and the kayaks. The Lagune is pretty safe and you will be surprised how shallow it is, so do not worry to go swimming or just walk through the shallow water. there is a little Bistro on Leisure Island serving excellent Sushi ! We were lazy, just did not want to go as far as Knysna Central but ....my God, the Sushi was GREAT !!! FANTASTIC !!! You must try the Crispy one !!!
