had a fantastic experience at Beacon House in Knysna. The apartment was spotless, spacious, and beautifully furnished—everything you could possibly need was thoughtfully provided. The sea view from the room was simply breathtaking and added so much to the relaxing atmosphere. A special thank you to Amarille, the manager, for her warm hospitality and professionalism—she truly went the extra mile to make our stay comfortable. Highly recommended for anyone looking for luxury, cleanliness, and tranquility in Knysna. I would definitely stay here again!

Everything about the guesthouse was spectacular. The pool was amazing, all of us enjoyed swimming. The room was just perfect for us, we had enough space for everything. The breakfast was amazing, and the staff is very friendly. Jane is such a great host, we even took a walk to the beach, and we enjoyed every minute of it.

I don't think by looking at the listing travellers will realise HOW AMAZING this location is! it literally is ON the water, and when the tide recedes leaves a beautiful private beachfront. The neighbouring properties are situated further along the beach and aroung the bend, so it feels completely isolated and private. This is a gem, and the perfect place to treat a loved one.

Very cute place right on the beach with great people. Not like anywhere we’ve ever stayed and so much character. No breakfast but fantastic breakfast and lunch place just a couple of minutes walk away. Free use of the kayaks to go around the lagoon was a nice bonus!

My wife and I loved the beach viewing points. The private beach is really cool and awesome as you can walk further in without going deep in. We loved the cabins, access to town is easy and close by.
