Knysna Chalets  

Set on the Garden Route in Knysna, Knysna Chalets is a self-catering chalet-style stay near Knysna Elephant Park, Goukamma Nature and Marine Reserve, Pledge Nature Reserve and Knysna Quays — a tidy base for lagoon walks and nature outings.

The property offers 28 individually decorated guestrooms with full kitchens (full-sized fridge/freezer and stovetop), private balconies or patios, safes and microwaves. Rooms come with satellite TV and DVD players, and weekday housekeeping keeps things easy and low-effort.

Relax by the outdoor pool, challenge the crew in the arcade/game room, or fire up the barbecue grills for an alfresco feast — everything geared toward casual, self-catered stays and chill afternoons after exploring the coast and reserves.

Wireless internet is available for a surcharge, and in-room safes add extra peace of mind for working travelers.
