A piece of Heaven

Reviewed By Rushni2022

We had the most amazing experience. Mark and team are friendly and helpful. We stayed at Blue Sky and we loved everything about it. The view was heaven, my husband and I found ourselves often just sitting there marveling at the beauty of this place. The sunsets were magical and after the rains the place was crisp and fresh. We would definitely go back in a heart beat ❤?

I arrived late in the afternoon without having booked any accommodation for the night. I was fortunate to have contacted Swallows Nest as not only was the accommodation excellent but the rates were super competitive. It was quite cold in the evening and what better way to warm up the evening then to have your own fire place!! I will use this as my default accommodation when visiting Tsitsikamma again..a lovely place to stay!!!

The Private Nature Reserve, located on the seafront, is only 10km from George central, 13km from George Airport, and only 6km from the N2. Whales can be seen during winter months and dolphins year-round from the comfort of your veranda.

Wow! My expectations were exceeded! The hospitality we received from Derrick was amazing, everyday we were treated with suggestions for things to do in and around Knysna especially since it was our first time visiting Knysna! The rooms were very spacious, and man what a view!! Staying in Brenton was the best decision I have made in a long time, the sunrises were beautiful, it got dark quite late so we took our son for bike rides every night. I felt safe in the area. Thank you for being so accommodating with regards to our little one as well!

Botlierskop Bush Villas

Returning again to a place we love

Reviewed By cevdspuy

We first visited Botlierskop three years ago and have been returning regularly ever since. We have stayed in the tented lodge as well as the Bush Villas. This was our second visit to the Bush Villas and my 16 year old daughter and I stayed in a “standard” Bush villa this time round, although there was nothing standard about. It is the height of luxury with every amenity you can think of! We had a lovely, peaceful, “socially distanced” stay, watching the game from our front patio. My daughter enjoyed an incredible horse safari and the game drive is always a must. We are forever returning to this magical place - nothing beats it!
