"All were very friendly and garden must be a paradise when there is enough water! Appreciated the hospitality."

"Great place to stay, the staff are all really friendly and helpful; the rooms were lovely and clean, perfect for our family. We loved the jungle/garden feel."

"My family and I enjoyed four nights at Bamboo and loved it! The rooms were unique, artistic and clean. The owners were so on top of their game that I was almost expecting an extra service fee upon checkout (which did not happen).

The best part though, was how incredibly friendly every employee was from the minute we checked in, to the cleaning staff, waiters, cook and, again, the owners. Even the night security staff were clearly part of the team.

We will definitely try Bamboo before looking elsewhere for our next stay in Knysna. "

"Very friendy and nice place, recommend for everyone. "

"A truly delightful guesthouse set within a 'jungle' garden and decorated with lots of pieces of art. Walls to our bedroom were a bit thin though as we could hear the TV next door, however, the owner was able to rectify the problem for us."

"Beautiful and private rooms, great food, and very helpful and friendly staff! We'll definitely stay there again! Thank you for a great stay!"

"If you want to feel like you are in the woods, but still have the comfort and luxuries of a guest house, the Bamboo is for you. I enjoyed my stay!"

"Excellent weekend. Friendly service. Highly recommended."

"Amazing! We spent our honeymoon at Bamboo, and we could not have asked for better accomodation. Friendly staff. Beautiful surroundings. Private cottage. Close to all attractions. An overall unforgettable experience. All this at a very affordable price."

"From the road it is impossible to guess at the tranquil gardens inside. It wasn't just the children who had fun exploring! The hosts are excellent and willing to help with booking restaurants, activities etc. I would love to come back and spend longer here."

"We had such fun with Jaynie at Bamboo lodge, both Jaynie and her husband were so relaxed, friendly and willing to help. The rooms were neat and set in a beautiful garden, making you forget all else.

thank you from The Kajee Family - Matatiele South Africa"

"Our stay was great. The garden was in top condition ( Knysna has a serious water problem ). And you really get the impression of the garden of eden. Keep it up."

"We had a great stay here. Our host Jaynie has a brilliant personality and made us very welcome. The rooms were lovely and it was great to arrive and find drinks and nibbles in the room. The wine certainly went down well! It just had a lovely atmosphere and she was always ready to offer assistance..."

The wine certainly went down well! It just had a lovely atmosphere and she was always ready to offer assistance when required. The breakfast room in the garden is quaint and a good selection of food for breakfast. I was concerned about being away from the Waterfront but in fact I think this was better. Highly recommended."

I would also recommend it to others. "

"The staff was very kind and helpful. We were upgraded to better room, because our daughter was ill and there she had more space. Thank you again for that. "

"Wir haben uns in diesem "Urwald" sehr wohl gefühlt und besonders den Grillabend genossen.

(RoomsForAfrica translated)
We felt very comfortable in this "jungle" and particularly enjoyed the barbecue."

"The Bamboo was an unexpected pleasure - a tropical oasis. Fun, flighty and luxury combined. Beautiful setting with great service and food."

"What a wonderful surprise Bamboo, the guesthouse is! Not only is it conveniently situated in a quiet residential suburb but the staff are awesome. Sarah greeted us as we arrived and showed us to our cute stylish Boma cottage next to the pool (sadly it poured with rain the night we stayed so we didn't swim, but the sound of pouring rain on the tin roof made up for that). It also has a little private deck outside. The boma has two showers and is fully kitted out with a fridge, electric stove top, cutlery, crockery, complimentary tea/coffee station. There is a fire place for super cold times. Then we went to the main house for Pizza night and some delicious chicken curry (and a complimentary drink). Granny Bamboo stopped by for a chat with her bubbly. Jay and Callie also popped by on their rounds. Breakfast the next morning was yummy-they home make the best muesli, with fruit and yoghurt and honey. Followed by a hot breakfast option. Thank you Bamboo, the guesthouse. A great stay."

"The room we had was nice, fairly basic. Breakfast is generous and owners are friendly and informative.

"

"Since the arrival, the stay was warm and hearty. The room and surrounding gardens gives you immediate relaxation and calms you down. The hospitality is great and this experience is highly recommended!

Thank you for making the stay a memorable one.

The cottages (lodges) are just FANTASTIC! It’s so relaxing and it’s a perfect base for checking out the local area. We could not recommend this high enough - except to say the next time we come we won’t even look for anything else - we will go straight to booking here!

"Loved the Courtyard Suite, luxurious, private, and quiet, with lots of space for all our clobber. The gardens really ARE magical, lots to explore for my little girl. Attention to detail; decor, art, great coffee and pancakes amongst everything makes it a great venue. The hosts create great hospitality; nothing too much trouble, the boat trips were a highlight, as was their help in finding my new home in Knysna. My relatives and friends will definitely be staying there in the future."

"This was a real find! Jaynie is the perfect hostess - we arrived after a long drive from Cape Town and she took great care of us, booking a table at a local restaurant and recommending sun-downers by the sea. Just what we needed! I would highly recommend this guest house, its quiet, intimate, has a pool and braai area and generally has everything you need for a short stay in Knysna. It’s worth noting they don’t take Credit/Debit cards so you have to pay in cash or EFT - not a major drama though."

"We stayed at the Bamboo Guesthouse for 3 nights and we could not have been happier with the accommodation. From the moment we arrived Jaynie and Gordon made us feel very welcome by getting us a welcome drink and helping us with our bags. The rooms are gorgeous and finished to a high standard with beautiful bed linen. The gardens in which all the rooms are situated are just stunning, you really feel relaxed, especially if you get a chance to sit in the garden swing. The breakfasts are excellent, Gordon will prepare you anything you want - you certainly will not go hungry! Most importantly all the staff were very friendly and were very happy to help with anything you need. We will definitely be going back sometime soon."
