This is the perfect place to enjoy the views of the magnificent lagoon and all its beauty.

This is the perfect relaxation spot. You can laze in the afternoon sun with a good book.

Kayaking, Cycling & Board Games
Kayaking, Cycling & Board Games
Kayaking on the lagoon is an amazing experience. We suggest taking the kayak through the Thesen Islands canals, stopping at one of the private beaches on the island and having a relaxed picnic before venturing back. Rowing through the canals is fairly easy for an active person.
It is also possible to row over the lagoon to the opposite side or even rowing to the train bridge but this would be for an intermediate rower or active person.
Do note that there is a surcharge for using the kayaks.
Cycling in our beautiful town is a lovely experience. Take the bicycles into town or to the waterfront for some shopping, strolling or snacking. Both bicycles have bicycle locks.
If you’re an experienced cycler you can venture further to the White bridge or even to The Heads.
There is nothing more fun than spending an evening with family or friends playing board games. We have a small selection for you to choose from such as Monopoly, Cards, Rumi Cup and Pick-up-Sticks.
Lounge Atrium & Service Bar

Various seating areas has selected books and magazines available for you to read, you can stroll through the shops or walk straight through to our splash pool overlooking the lagoon & green hills surrounding Knysna.
We offer you a selection of drinks from our service bar from fine wines to craft beers as well as some cocktails, cool drinks, coffee or tea. There is also a selection of sweet and savoury snacks. This area is also great for events, conferences and weddings.
