    "Everything was fine, the only thing I think they should do is take out the Spa baths and replace them with showers - it would save a lot of water!!"

    25 October 2017

    "The space is a bit cramped and right next to the other units. Cutlery wasn't clean. The booking.com experience to book the unit was terrible. All aggravated by a terrible booking experience from Safarinow."

  • "Cozy break away"

    09 March 2015

    "We had a great stay here on the honeymoon the lodge had a great view of the log."

  • "Spacious, clean and cottage style"

    15 December 2014

    "We stayed at Abalone Lodges for 1 night as a stop-over and were surprised by the size and cleanliness of the wooden lodge. The wooden style creates a cozy atmosphere which separates them from the other obvious choices of accommodation. The laggos view is not so spectacular as it is compromised by other premises in front of it but can be spotted from the first floor balcony. The kitchen was fully equipped and clean."

  • "Stayed with my daughter - fantastic"

    10 December 2014

    "Lovely helpful staff and beautiful views."

  • "Great views"

    29 November 2014

    "We stayed for three nights in November in a semi detached lodge. The room was spotlessly clean and the bathroom with spa bath lovely - only thing missing was a shower if you wanted a quick wash. There was a shower attachment on the bath but only suitable for washing your hair. The room was compact but there was a table and two chairs on the balcony which would have been lovely to sit on if the weather was good. Would visit again."

  • "Relaxing"

    14 October 2013

    "This is very clean and comfortable accommodation. It is so nice to be able to relax on the balcony and look out at the great view. Loved the bath, and definitely can recommend this as a "pleasurable experience". Much Thanks to the friendly staff."

  • "August stay"

    "The lodges are really nicely designed around a family's needs. The kitchen is well suited to make small and even larger meals, and is a inviting place for a "Team-Breakfast". Rooms and baths are very inviting. Definitively a place to come back to.The location is superb, a very nice view over the Knysna bay, with enviable sunsets strait into our lounge....."
