A very lovely place to stay. There was a roaring open fire while we ate our delicious breakfast. Our accommodation was very comfortable. This was the most expensive place we steyed in while in South Africa and the only one that didn't give us free bottles of water. There is a charge of £1 for each pod of coffee for the machine in the room, although sachets & tea bags are free with an electric kettle. ##### Helen Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bettina , Rhein-Main-Gebiet Oct 21, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Wunderschöne Blockhütte Nach einer etwas holperigen Anfahrt gelangt man zu einem gemütlichen Blockhaus. Unsere eigene Blockhütte nr. 4 war hervorragend ausgestattet und bot einen wunderschönen Blick auf die Bucht. Im Badezimmer gab es auch von der Badewanne und von der Dusche aus den gleichen schönen Ausblick. Badewanne mit Whirlpool. Große Minibar und Kaffee im Zimmer. Auch das Frühstück war sehr vielseitig.

Breakfast was nice, the staff is friendly with good service attitude. ##### Eytan ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mohammed Mar 3, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Best 3 night out of 19 in South Africa The best place we stayed in regarding comfort, view, local area and value for money was by far elephant hide. I spent my 19 days honeymoon all over South Africa, so trust me when I say it is one of the best. Having said that, the pool area is too small, but we weren't there for the pool and we never had breakfast so I can't help you here either. ##### Mohammed ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jan 14, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Panoramic lagoon views The views from each private lodge make this a very memorable place. Add to that the spacious comfortable rooms, the very friendly and helpful staff and a great breakfast and we would definitely recommend it and stay again. We had a slight problem with the air conditioning which the manager (Fish) got straight onto. As they couldn't get hold of the repair guy they offered us a complimentary bottle of wine which was much appreciated and a change of room. The problem actually sorted itself out! ##### Verified traveller ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brian, Knoxville, Tennessee, USA Dec 13, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great, fairly secluded, spot! We stayed just one night on our trip across the Garden Route. It's a very nice place and the staff was great and flexible for us. While it's a little bit outside of Knysna, it's not too far, and the seclusion is a nice benefit! ##### Brian ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Mar 24, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Verified traveller ### 8/10 Good #### VINCENT, Montpellier Mar 10, 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Vue spectaculaire sur le lagoon Très bonne prestation et tres belle chambre avec un panorama spectaculaire sur le lagoon... Hôtel très bien situé dans un cadre semi verdoyant. Très belle piscine a débordement sur le lagoon. Petit déjeuner très correct et personnel très serviable. Extérieur commun manque de place. ##### VINCENT ### 10/10 Excellent #### jürgen, Braunschweig Feb 8, 2015 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Entspannung und dezenter Luxus Alles schön - tolle Zimmer , gutes Frühstück , klasse Service ( Dank an Elli u Fish ) immer da ,sehr bescheiden und immer freundlich !!!

Dec 25, 2012 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Super, excellent.... Sehr ruhige Gegend in einer urtümlichen Umgebung. Wunderbare Aussicht auf die Lagune. Der Service war weit über den Erwartungen und stellte manches grosses Hotel in den Schatten. Die Freundlichkeit und Hilfsbereitschaft der Mitarbeiter verdient 5 Sterne. Wir werden auf jeden Fall dort wieder buchen. Das nächste mal allerdings viel länger. Wir freuen uns jetzt schon darauf. ##### C. & P. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The Palace of the Lost City at Sun City Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Sun-City-Hotels-The-Palace-Of-The-Lost-City-At-Sun-City-Resort.h392096.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Peterborough](https://www.expedia.ca/Peterborough-Hotels.d6057903.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels near Radio City Music Hall](https://www.expedia.ca/Radio-City-Music-Hall-Hotels.0-l6047349-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels near CHUM](https://www.expedia.ca/CHUM-Hotels.0-l650453620833312768-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Thorn & Feather (Vermaaklikheid)](https://www.expedia.ca/Vermaaklikheid-Hotels-Thorn-Feather.h61102048.Hotel-Information) > > [Sandman Hotel Oakville](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels-Sandman-Hotel-Oakville.h9516926.Hotel-Information) > > [Princess Family Club Riviera - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Playa-Del-Carmen-Hotels-Princess-Family-Club-Riviera.h10255084.Hotel-Information) > > [Park Inn by Radisson Polokwane](https://www.expedia.ca/Polokwane-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Polokwane.h17771611.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Miramichi](https://www.expedia.ca/Miramichi-Hotels.d6141062.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Aquila Private Game Reserve & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Touws-River-Hotels-Aquila-Private-Game-Reserve-Spa.h6347327.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Tokyo](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokyo-Hotels.d179900.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Monte Carlo Inn Toronto - Markham](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels-Monte-Carlo-Inn-Toronto-Markham.h921867.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Anaheim Convention Center](https://www.expedia.ca/Anaheim-Convention-Center-Hotels.0-l6034884-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [WorldMark Indio](https://www.expedia.ca/Palm-Springs-Hotels-WorldMark-Indio.h1784055.Hotel-Information) > > [Mafigeni Safari Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Gravelotte-Hotels-Mafigeni-Safari-Lodge.h3954755.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Pearson Intl. to ROM-All Airports](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/rom/toronto-to-rome) > > [Flights from Winnipeg (YWG) to Kitchener (YKF)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/ywg/ykf/winnipeg-to-kitchener) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Istanbul (IST)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/ist/toronto-to-istanbul) > > [Flights from Buenos Aires (EZE) to Santiago (SCL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/eze/scl/buenos-aires-to-santiago) > > [Flights from Prince George (YXS) to Calgary (YYC)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yxs/yyc/prince-george-to-calgary) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Indianapolis (IND)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/ind/toronto-to-indianapolis) > > [Flights from Abbotsford (YXX) to Kelowna (YLW)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yxx/ylw/abbotsford-to-kelowna) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Tunis (TUN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/tun/toronto-to-tunis) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Hanoi (HAN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/han/toronto-to-hanoi) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Saskatoon (YXE)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/yxe/toronto-to-saskatoon) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Prince George (YXS)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/yxs/vancouver-to-prince-george) > > [Flights from Warsaw (WAW) to Calgary (YYC)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/waw/yyc/warsaw-to-calgary) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Edmonton (YEG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/yeg/vancouver-to-edmonton) ### Cars > [Budget Destinations In United States Of America](https://www.expedia.ca/Budget-Destinations-In-United-States-Of-America.d201-c39.Car-Rental-Destination-Suppliers) ### General > [Visit Long Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Long-Beach.dx2058)
