Leisure Isle Lodge, South Africa

Adam Chapman

I had two very enjoyable nights at Leisure Isle Lodge. The rooms are beautifully decorated and if you get the rooms with the lagoon view they really are spectacular! The lodge is across the road from the only 'beach' in Knysna (on the lagoon) and the lodge looks right onto the Knysna Heads. The restaurant is well known and serves excellent food and the service is friendly and professional. I have used the lodge many a time since for my guests who have always thoroughly enjoyed themselves here.

Customer Review

Holiday to South Africa during September 2010

South Africa Review

I loved it. I did not think it was so developed and so clean and there were no potholes on the roads. My conclusion is that I was very ignorant about the country. The level of developement I foundw as far superior to what I had anticipated and the quality of the food was excellent. In terms of crime...
