All of de VIEW’s rooms face the Knysna heads offering a relaxing view after a day of exploring the local attractions or a full day of business meetings. Unwind on your own personal deck or watch Netflix or browse the online world with the free uncapped Wi-Fi. Wake up with your continental breakfast served in your room or on your deck. de VIEW B&B is not affected by loadshedding (power blackouts).
de VIEW B&B is located in the Paradise suburb of Knysnsa, a quiet neighborhood close on the west hill overlooking the Knysna Heads and just far enough away from the busy tourist centre, but also close enough to walk to town or the Waterfront (If you don't mind the hill coming back). You have "de view" over the Knynsa Waterfront activities, the estuary and the Knysna heads. Languages spoken: Afrikaans, English
