"Amazing place to stay with amazing hosts. Close enough to walk to the CBD if you are prepared and brave enough to conquer/tackle the uphill on the way back. For me it was perfect preparation to running the Knysna Forest Marathon. The room has everything one requires and more: WiFi, hairdryer, fridge, kettle, heater, shower and small touches such as OBS and snacks on arrival as well as a torch in case of a power failure or emergency. The fact that DSTV was not available in the room itself,...

When is the best time to go to Paradise?
The best time to visit Paradise, Western Cape, is during the summer months, from December to February, or the shoulder seasons of spring (September to November) and autumn (March to May).

During summer, you'll experience warm, dry weather, superb for enjoying the beaches and outdoor activities. Daily temperatures often reach the high 20s Celsius, with plenty of sunshine. This is peak season, so while the weather is ideal, properties and popular attractions can be busier.

The shoulder seasons offer a pleasant balance. Spring brings blooming fynbos and slightly milder temperatures, usually in the low to mid-20s, making it excellent for hiking and exploring the natural beauty without the intense summer heat. Autumn provides similar comfortable temperatures and often calmer conditions, ideal for wine tasting tours in the nearby valleys.

Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right Paradise hotel for you.
