What people say

To put my stay in context, I normally stay in 5 star hotels and have travelled extensively. The stay at this hotel exceeded our expectations, the location is great, the place beautiful. Helen and her mother were perfect hosts and I can’t rate this place high enough. It is thoroughly recommended. Amanzi was absolutely beautiful and the staff was fantastic. They were so attentive and helped us make plans for restaurants and any activities we wanted to do. I can'r say enough about this bed and breakfast.

Hotel information details

Amanzi Island Lodge has bicycles, canoes and paddle skis for you to use to explore the island and the lagoon.

A terrace and patio provide the perfect setting for an evening drink from the honesty bar, watching the sun go down over the Knysna Heads and Featherbed Nature Reserve. On cooler evenings, the lodge also offers a comfortable lounge area.

The lodge is named Amanzi after the South African word for water. This is because water is the first thing that greets you each morning and the last thing you will see at night, as you draw your curtains to a close.
