"Beautiful house, with everything you need and in working order. What a pleasure to stay here! Will definitely be back!"

"What an amazingly peaceful and beautiful place!! Exactly what we needed to get some r and r!! Will definetly stay here again!!"

"My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our time at Leeward Isle. The loft apartment was very well equipped, tastefully decorated, cosy and comfortable. It's location on the beautiful Thesen Island marina is also perfect and close to many of the best restaurants and attractions.
"

"The room was very clean, neat and tidy. Very comfortable, just a pity that there was no view."

"Our stay at Thesen Island was truly amazing and the property was just perfect. We will surely be coming back here on our return to South Africa.

Thanks"

"Anthony was very accommodating, thorough in detailing what we were to expect-and we were grateful that the description and the reality were both fantastic."

"Awesome, albeit shoddy weather, the establishment was top notch and brilliant. The furnishings were top class. Will definitely be back again! Thanks"

" We had an absolutely fantastic stay! Beautiful setting for a lovely home. We'll definitely be back! Thanx so much. :-)

"

"We had an enjoyable stay! Everything clean and neat. Even got a phone call after we checked in to see if everything was okay. Stunning views. Stunning house."

"We enjoyed a magnificent holiday in this beautiful home and studio. The kids had a ball with the lagoon right on our doorstep. Thank you! "

"What an ideal setting. The weather was perfect and there is something wonderful about having a lagoon in your backyard. The accommodation was clean and neat and everything exceeded our expectations. Thank you :)"

"My wife and I had an awesome holiday. This became our home away from home and we settled in really nicely. Didn't want to go home after six days on the island. We will definitely visit this particular house again and again! "

"The accommodation was fantastic and we really enjoyed our stay. Despite the weather we had a wonderful time and will definitley be back. Thanks Anthony"

"Wonderful beach house in perfect position. All the amenities necessary for a relaxed & comfortable stay. Can't wait to go back."

"What an amazingly peaceful and beautiful place!! Exactly what we needed to get some r and r!! Will definitely stay here again!! Leanne Perrang "

"The house was all we needed! Enjoyed it!"

"Thesen Island accommodation was outstanding, comfortable and really up market. We loved every moment and had the most memorable holiday ever. Thank you."

"Beautiful place to stay, very convenient, well equipped. I hope I can use it other time. Had an excellent time. Thank u. My friends from Europe are very impressed."

"Excellent accommodation on this secure 'gated community' on Thesen Island.

Lovely property, well equipped, with great views. A wonderful, comfortable place in which to relax. Great scenery in the area."

"We enjoyed the Location and the perfect house! Thank you very much"

"We spent a lovely week at the house as a family of four (4 year old and 10 month old). The house and garden were very well presented, and ideal for our stay.

"We spent a lovely week at the house as a family of four (4 year old and 10 month old). The house and garden were very well presented, and ideal for our stay. There was plenty to do on Thesen Islands (beach, playground, walks/runs, etc ) and the Harbour Town village was a leisurely walk away. Knysna itself was only a short drive across the causeway. Aside from some moderate vigilance with the stairs, we found this place great for the kids, with the garden and deck safely fenced and ample room inside. Having direct access to the beach from the deck was a particular bonus for us (one of the few houses with this feature). We would happily return, as well as recommend the house to other families."

"Fantastic house to stay, surpassed even picture expectations. Quiet, natural environment was restful with local amenities very close. Food venues very good and plenty to choose from. Would definitely stay again and would recommend to friends."

"We were 4 guys on a golf tour and the setting was perfect. Nice and peaceful with restaurants and shops conveniently around the corner after a long day of golf to enjoy a meal and a few cold ones. We will definitely return and stay here again."

"We enjoyed 2 wonderful nights on Thesen Island. Our villa was well equipped and very comfortable. Our only wish was that we could stay longer!"

"A wonderful holiday where children are free to reign and feel safe. Lots to do and Ilse De Pain is a must visit for breakfasts and out-of-this-world bread. Thesen Islands are beautiful and very well kept."

"The location of the house on the canals was amazing!"

"Wat 'n lekker naweek! Die eenheid is so mooi met al die geriewe wat jy wil he, die kinders het heerlik gespeel op die strand. Julle sien ons weer.

What a great weekend ! The unit is so beautiful with all the amenities you want , the kids enjoyed playing on the beach . You'll see us again."

"Our stay at Thesen Island was truly a fantastic experience. The unit was beautiful and well kept. The unit was extremely well equipped and we wanted for nothing. The private beach was wonderful for the kids to play on and they enjoyed feeding the ducks and birds. The unit was also peaceful and quiet..."

"We stayed at the owner's other house, which is two doors down from Thesen Island. We had a wonderful time and loved sitting on the deck. It is very clean and well stocked. I will definitely stay there again."

" My

wife and I had reserved the L33 loft apartment for 4 nights. The owner

contacted us before arrival and kindly offered us the use of the house

instead of the attached apartment.  It is a lovely house with direct access to the beach in front.  It

was spotlessly clean and obviously well maintained. It is very

conveniently located, within walking distance of Harbour Town, the

waterfront and yacht club. It is beautifully furnished with large

comfortable beds, has premium DStv and all the kitchen appliances that

anyone could want. It is highly recommended. "

"Own private beach. Beautiful sunrises and sunsets . Clean, neat well furnished upmarket holiday home. Value for money. I will be back next year for a longer holiday."

"We had a wonderful holiday at L33. This holiday home suited all our needs."

"Great place to stay.

the view is amazing and you have the best of both worlds with the canals as well as a private beach area.

the kids loved it as we could play on the beach and canoe at the same time.

the house is really amazing. Everything is there that you need.

"We stayed in L35 and it was awesome. The house has everything we needed. Clean and very spacious. Enjoyed the stay and will go again."

"clean and spacious house in a very safe environment. downside- no WLAN included"

My whole family enjoyed a very relaxed time away and I will definitely recommend it and return in the future."

"Fantastic location with easy access to all activities on the island. The house was well-equipped for 7 people."

"Just returned from a long weekend at Thesen Island. Had 2 small kids with us and we all had a fantastic time. The house we stayed in L33 was great, - but i'd hire any house at Thesen. No other place to stay."

"What a great stay we had on Thessen Island. It is save, secure and ideally placed to explore the best part of the garden route. Great eating places nearby too."

"I rented this place for a one-night romantic getaway with my girlfriend, and it didn't disappoint.

"I rented this place for a one-night romantic getaway with my girlfriend, and it didn't disappoint. It is very clean and well presented, with a great location right on the waters' edge overlooking a quiet alcove of the lagoon. The main bedroom was impressive, as it has its own balcony and large en-suite bathroom. Thesen Island as a whole is fantastic and it's only a 15-minute walk from the villa to the island's main shops and restaurants, which are also very good. A must-visit place for a unique experience. We finished off our stay with a proposal on the balcony. We are to marry next year."

"Absolutely awesome! Clean, great views, well equipped and just generally a great experience. We will definitely be back!"

"I think pay attention to some things which are not working for egs handle doors, you can be locked for life in the shower bathroom. Patio doors difficult to lock. Small things falling apart. But still I enjoy the house and a place."

"We spent 2 nights a Thesen Islands on 17 & 18 Oct 2017 and enjoyed the place. It's a very secured and organised place and the accommodation was very comfortable with very good restaurants nearby.
We also recommend 'Ile de pain' for your breakfast..delicious French pastries and bread."

"Excellent location, good security and friendly staff. Had a wonderful three nights stay. House is in very good condition, clean and well equipped."

"The facilities were really excellent. The place was so clean and we got more than we expected. The surroundings are also quiet and I will definitely recommend them. This has been the second time we have stayed here as we were very pleased with the accommodation last year."

"Our stay was absolutely divine. We stayed at a few places in our travels and this is definitely one of the better places. It's really such a lovely place and I will certainly let other people know about it."

"We stayed at Thesen Island end of July 2012 for a whole week. What a wonderful and lovely place! We enjoyed our stay very much. The lagoon as well as the whole area are really outstanding places. A week is of course much too less time to explore this wonderful place!

We loved the Island and the property. The service and support of the owner was excellent and very professional. The house was perfect for us.

We wish all future visitors of Thesen Island a wonderful time and strongly recommend to consider a visit."

"We had a very nice stay at Thesen Island. The accommodation was more than satisfying. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to go to Knysna, the whole group were very impressed."

"The Thesen Islands villa is a very good place to stay - the interior of the house is modern and bright, the kitchen is well-equipped with everything you need and the master bedroom gives you a fantastic view over the the lagoon. The security estate seems to be very safe and you feel like being in a little village at the lagoon. Everything was perfect and made us feeling home. Thumbs up for this place!"

"We loved the accommodation. Great location at a small beach and nicely decorated. Parking is fine if you only have one car. Unusual layout of the rooms, but it worked for us."

"This is an ideal stay for two couples. The kitchen, living room, area were good and coffee on the patio was a morning ritual. Occupying the main bedroom was really a good option. Appliances in the kitchen were excellent.

We appreciated the secure environment. "

"A little apprehensive returning to the same place after it being so good last year but it was just as good.

Breakfast at Ile de Pain is excellent but always very busy particularly on Sundays (closed on Mondays). Sirocco is very good for dinner with beautiful lagoon views. 34 is very good also for more relaxed beer & tapas.

"We stayed for 4 nights the house was very comfortable, the studio was a great surprise for our Gradson (15yrs) he enjoyed having his own space, we all enjoyed having a BBQ on the veranda the view's was amazing. Wish we had stayed longer."

"I spent three nights in Thesen Island with my husband and 3 children, and we found the house to be of outstanding quality and in a very safe and upmarket location.
The house was advertised on the site as a 3 bedroom house, but in fact it is a two bedroom house (one king size bedroom facing the private beach, and another double bedroom), the third bedroom being in a separate studio flat with an independent entrance. Thesen Island, being a holiday resort, is extremely quiet in winter, and most shops are closed for holidays; the two restaurants were open, but, sadly, not the famous bakery. The house is very beautiful, modern, and equipped with all amenities. We would highly recommend it.
"

"A beautiful, spacious & well equipped house. We spent 9 nights there in January/February 2010 and the weather was amazing. The complex is very secure, quiet & convenient for everything in Knysna. The most noise we had was from the ducks quacking at sunrise."

"We experienced a wonderful, tranquil 3 days at Lee Lane. With cold, rainy and sunny conditions, this well equipped holiday home provided for all our needs. It was pure luxury! Thank you for recharging our batteries."

"Wow what a lovely place! The house is a dream and the surroundings also very nice. We had a lovely time staying there. I will definitely make another booking."

"It was almost like being at home...but with much better weather! We arrived with a 2-year-old daughter in tow and found that we had absolutely everything we could possibly need, both for her and for us - the owner even arranged for a brand new travel cot to be set up for when we arrived.

We arrived with a 2-year-old daughter in tow and found that we had absolutely everything we could possibly need, both for her and for us - the owner even arranged for a brand new travel cot to be set up for when we arrived. Extremely well equipped and beautifully furnished, we couldn't have wished for a better place to base ourselves in Knysna. Even the neighbours were lovely!

It was very good value for money - I emailed a couple of times to check it really was all included in the price!
"

"My Thesen Island days were the highlight of the road trip through SA. What a surprise to find the beauty of the island combined with such luxury in the unit, and that for a price that I could afford! Heaven! And believe me; I am coming back!"

"On arrival at the airport, it was so cold and windy and I thought, what shall we do if the weather remains like this.

"On arrival at the airport, it was so cold and windy and I thought, what shall we do if the weather remains like this. I could hear other people talking about the weather and that it is going to get much worse. I felt even more depressed. We got to the car rental, where it took forever - it was cold, windy and my baby was restless. As we entered Knysna, my husband drove on towards the Island and to the apartments. We went into L33 and to my surprise the house was so beautiful, comfortable, warm and secure. I felt like I was at home. It had everything that you could imagine. We were so excited that I even forgot about the weather. This place was just as the pictures sent to me, no exaggeration. I must say the stay was most comfortable, not even the weather got me down. This is a perfect family place. I will definitely recommend Thesen Islands to other people.

Thank you Rooms of Africa and Anthony."
