The property was phenomenal and extremely clean. The host was gracious and made us feel welcome. Additionally, she gave us multiple recommendations on things to do and places to eat. The apartment had great details which made it feel like a real home. I would stay there again!

Amazing place! Our room was large, beautiful with a breathtaking view. The staff was very kind and helpful. It’s a tricky road upp to the castle, but once you’re there it’s worth everything. It’s not far from Knysna center, and it’s easy to go anywhere you want in the area.

Very nice and comfortable apartment. All, what you need, is present there! The kitchen is very well equipped. The owner explained very well how to get in (the entrance to the territory, the keys etc) but we have not seen her. Good beds, spacious rooms and bathrooms, very nice terrace! The place is close to Thesen Island. The place gives you a very safe feeling. Free tee/coffee. There was also oil, salt/pepper, sugar. Also "special" lamps in case there is no electricity - very useful! Good WiFi

    From the start, we loved the Simola Hotel! It's a beautiful Hotel, the staff was so friendly and we were greeted with so much professionalism! The suite we stayed in was also amazing, spacious, with beautiful decor! Wish we could've stayed another few nights but we had places to be the next day. This is really a gem of a Hotel. Next time we are definitely bringing the kids along too as the whole resort is very family friendly. Just have to say again, the staff is fantastic!

    The suites were bigger than anticipated, with kitchen and lounge area. would recommend this for over the executive suite if staying for a few days. the kids club staff were excellent, lots of entertainment at the pool etc made for loads of fun for the entire family.

    The kids club and daily entertainment was fantastic. We had no reason to leave the hotel. Philani, who heads up the entertainment was an absolute legend with the kids and has the entire family addicted to Bingo! Would highly recommend, esp for a family with kids.
