The rooms here are simply stunning as are the views over the Knysna Heads. I loved everything about this guest house. It is simply top class. It would particularly appeal to golfers with its golf theme and proximity to nearby courses but if you aren’t into golf, don’t be put off. The guest house is within walking distance of one of the most scenic restaurants / bars in Knysna and within easy driving distance of the town and the rest of the activities on offer in the Garden Route. I always get excellent feedback from guests and will continue to use Augusta Bay for this reason.

  • Laura Pattinson

Augusta Bay is a beautiful guest house nestled against the Eastern Head of the Knysna lagoon. Nine beautifully appointed suites offer discerning guests a luxurious way to enjoy the natural beauty of their surroundings.

  • Savour a well deserved drink in the luxury of the bar, or sip a cocktail while getting to know your fellow travellers. Enjoy the peace and quiet of the separate lounge area or relax on the pool deck, conveniently situated on the same level.
  • Wake up to a generous English or continental breakfast served in the sun-splashed central atrium overlooking the pool deck and lagoon. Guests often spot dolphins and whales over a cuppa.
