Villa Castollini

L’hôtel était magnifique, et le service était exceptionnel. Merci 

Breathtaking views from the top of the mountain onto the beautiful Knysna lagoon. Francios was extremely kind and friendly as well as the breakfast staff! Thank you for making our honeymoon stay one to remember, 10/10 recommend to newlyweds, families and singles. We would definitely be back in the near future. Thank you!!

The view

Spectacular views with an amazing swimming pool. I found this little gem at the last minute and when I pulled up, I was so pleasantly surprised. It looks like something out of Italy has a Tuscany feel to it but had lots of character and when I went inside it was even more beautiful. Beautiful views from the swimming pool and amazing staff that made my stay very enjoyable. If I ever go back to South Africa, I would definitely stay there again.

Far exceeded expectations This may have been one of my favourite places that I’ve ever stayed. Where to start! We received a very warm welcome from the staff when we arrived (much later than planned). The property is beautiful, set above the lake just a short drive outside of Knysna. Our room had a huge balcony with a view overlooking the lake. It is such a relaxing and scenic setting that it was difficult to find the motivation to leave during the days! From the amazing breakfast, self service bar, and wonderful staff, this is such a lovely spot to stay.

This was our 3rd time staying. This is just good it’s excellent. Accommodation is big and comfy with everything you need. Patio window onto balcony with great views across the lagoon. There is an honesty bar to help yourself and record your own purchases to pay at end of stay. Not far to drive into Knysna or a short drive to Brenton on Beach which has a spectacular beach walk up Buffels Bay. Breakfast in the morning is restaurant quality, good choice and large portions. Omelette was 🏆. Francois greeted and checked us in and was full of helpful tips. Always around and very cheerful. Maggie and her team in the kitchen were great as I mentioned. With staff like this and luxury accommodation this is defiantly the place to stay. Not forgetting the staff members who work in the background as you may the place work as much as anyone. Thanks for the great stay.
