Loved almost everything about it. The “cottage” style of the room, the attention of the staff, the view from the room. Everything was perfect at our stay. And Knysna is a very lovely town.
The manager (I think), Mr. JH, welcomed us and helped us with every doubts we had.

Beautiful location. Our room was lovers nest, so close to the water, it was like being in a boat! We went out in kayaks which was great. So fun to see the tide come in and out. Beautiful gardens.

Absolutely gorgeous location and views, set on a stunning, safe and private island with a wonderful and relaxing atmosphere. The room itself was also stunning - relaxing beach vibe and very stylish at the same time. Using the on-site bicycles and travelling around the island was also a big highlight of our trip as there is a lot to see and do on the island, as well as using the on-site kayaks to paddle around the lagoon. It's also very close to some of the amazing restaurants at the lagoon mouth (Pizza E Vino was brilliant).

The breakfast was top notch with fresh ingredients. I highly enjoyed the freshly baked croissants. I loved the service the most. 5 star experience and service. All staff were very helpful. Every morning our car was wiped down. The hostess personally said goodbye to us. I highly recommend this place to stay at in Knysna.

Great location. Clean and well kept. Carla was a good host. Apartment looked well appointed, but we only spent one night, so didn’t cook or do washing.
Everything was perfect! The house is located in the very calm and beautiful Leisure island, with a great view on the lagoon. The rooms are tastefully furnished and Mike is a great host. He was so kind to upgrade our rooms at no cost, as we were the only guests in the house, and provided plenty of helpful tips to visit the area. The beds are very comfortable and the breakfast is simple but delicious.
Everything was wonderful, Pierre is a great host. The staff was friendly and helpful. My best part was the freshly made croissants and Belgian waffle for breakfast...
We stayed over for the Knysna half marathon and we were so pleased with everything at Pearl View Guest House.
Marycke and Conni are great hosts and the chef prepares delicious breakfasts and dinners - we didn't even leave the guesthouse to go and eat in town.
Sundowners on the stoep with the sun setting over the lagoon is a must.
We will definitely visit again.
