Everything was just exceptional, from the moment we walked it we were blown away. The furniture, finishings and amenities were just exquisite, the breakfast was scrumptious, the staff and owners so warm and welcoming. We had a luxurious, quiet and relaxing couple of days, just what the Dr ordered. Thank you Wayne, Dirk, Patti and Memories ❤️. It truly felt like home away from home.

I was very impressed with the cabin, rooms were super cozy and it was very well equipped. Braai area was good and wood was provided without any extra charge. The private beach was very pretty and there were some toys for the kids to play with. There were also kayaks for guests to use.

Our room had a jacuzzi. It was nice and romantic. The hotel is also 6km from TheHeads where you get to see the beautiful Knysna views. We jogged to the heads and took an Uber back. It was very lovely.
