My husband and I stayed here for one night following an awful night at Milkwood Manor. We turned up with desperate please and the wonderful staff at Emily Moon made a plan for us. Magically the lovely owners sorted out the best villa for us... and at a fraction of the cost, because we were distressed honeymooners. Our room was... more

Emily Moon was recommended to us, and it exceeded our hopes and expectations. Diane and Simon were the most charming hosts, full of local knowledge and advice which we were able to successfully utilise. The "room" we had was in fact a "suite" with total privacy, the highlight of which would have been the fantastic outdoor shower offering wonderful views... more

This hotel was wonderful. We arrived just as the drought ended and the hurricane hit, 30 hours of horizontal rain, felt as if we had never left Scotland. The villas were outstanding, clean, comfortable and if you are going to be holed up in a storm there is no where better.. The first night the children "camped" out in our... more

The views were breath-taking - majestic hills, meandering river and lush greenery. Everyone was friendly and eager to help you enjoy your vacation - you feel as if you were staying in a friend's abode. The ambience was cosy and relaxing. The food could only be summed up in one word - SUMPTUOUS! The room was tastefully done up and... more

My husband and I had a magic weekend at Emily Moon. The view and birdlife are fantastic. The service, friendly staff and wonderful FOOD make it a home away from home. We would definately return soon. more

We just returned from a three night stay at the EMRL! It was simply superb. The rooms are 5 star and so is everything else. OK, so there is no 24 hours roomservice or laundry, but he, you are on vacation...... at the same time the owners and staff are flexible enough to serve you anything any time any where!!!... more

We spent three nights at Emily Moon and fell in love with the place. The rooms were perfect. The restaurant is the best in town. We ventured elsewhere one night and wished we were back there instead. Can't recommend it highly enough! more

We only had 2 nights at Emily Moon River Lodge we would recommend at least 3 if touring South Africa. There is plenty to do in the Plettenberg Bay/Knysna Area and Emily Moon is the perfect base to do this and also to relax. The staff were all so friendly and helpful, and every morning the owners would come down... more
