Point Lodge

Point Lodge is peaceful and secluded with panoramic views across the lagoon to the Knysna Heads. Superbly situated, right at the Water's Edge, the gracious double storey is set in beautiful gardens and owners Ryk and Amanda Cloete offer professional, personal service and are able to help with any local information.

Each room is individually decorated in comfortable style. A scrumptious full English and continental buffet breakfast is served in the dining room from 8am. Guests are welcome to make themselves at home in the lounge and honesty bar, which all overlook the lagoon.

Relax at the sparkling pool, visit the beach or use one of the canoes available at the lodge. For a slightly more energetic day, bookings for one of Knysna's excellent golf courses or adventure activities can be made at reception.

There are numerous excellent restaurants nearby, and reservations and recommendations can gladly be made on your behalf. Point Lodge is an absolute paradise for honeymooners of all ages.

Your perfect base to explore the Garden Route. We look forward to meeting you soon.
