    "Nyanza" means water and the property is both in view of and walking distance to the beautiful Knysna Lagoon. You can walk safely on a paved pathway in either direction to attractions such as Leisure Isle or Thesen Island. Love and care has gone...

    Apartment was well-equipped, beautifully clean & neat. Walking distance to THESEN Island & the Waterfront, so the position was fantastic. The hostess was wonderful, providing little extras that really made us feel special.

    Walking distance to wharf and island. Host was so helpful. Lots of personal touches like chocolate in the rooms, insect repellant, flowers throughout, fruit bowl. Lovely and quiet.

I look forward to welcoming you to your stay at Nyanza Knysna. This special and spacious apartment which is more like a cottage is situated in a quiet crescent, within a minute's walk away to the beautiful Knysna lagoon, perfect for fishing, kyaking, walking and cycling. Relax outside in the garden with the sounds of the Guinea Fowl, Loerie and other lovely bird sounds. Nyanza Knysna is the perfect destination to relax and enjoy all that Knysna has to offer. Close proximity to both the Knysna and Pezula Golf course, 7 minute drive away to Leisure Isle where one can enjoy swimming in the lagoon and about a 12 minute drive away to the beautiful beach at Brenton On Sea.
Originally from Zimbabwe, Lived in Cape Town and moved to Knysna six years ago, absolutely love Knysna! Have a border collie, whose name is Sherpa, very socialised and we both enjoy the outdoors, walking on the beach, swimming etc.
Our neighbourhood is lovely. Very quiet and safe. We have a lovely English Pub which serves excellent pub fare within an approximate 10 minute walk and also easy walking distance to restaurants at both Knysna Water Front and Thesen Harbour.
