The Villa Afrikana offers all the luxuries of 5 star accomodation with a boutique hotel's attention to detail.
We found the Villa breathtakingly beautiful - from it's amazing views to it's wonderfully appointed rooms. How fantastic it was to be greeted at the end of a long journey by Ross and Bianca, offering a glass of chilled wine and chocolate-dipped strawberries!
Bianca was a superb host, who obviously has a great pride in her residence, and the high standards of both herself and Ross are reflected in the standard of the rooms.
Our room was stunning and included many extras which one would expect to find in a 5 star hotel - bathrobes, slippers and toiletries. however, not even Cape Grace gave us a rose on the pillow and rose petals on the bed!
Breakfast was delightful, again showing great attention to detail, and we were able to take it on our terrace, which was an added bonus.
Our thanks, too, go to Bianca and Ross's efficient and caring staff. They reflect the high standard of the accomodation.
Our one regret is that we were only staying for one night. Should we return to South Africa, we will definitely be booking a longer stay at the Villa Afrikana!

Immaculate, stylish, design! A villa with wonderful view. The rooms are very spacious, with a huge bathroom. A lot of small details make the journey here spectacular! Bag with beach towels, strawberry with chocolate at arrivals, rose's petals on the bed, huge selection for breakfast (you can choose, whatever and will be freshly prepared). Ross and Bianca and all the staff are all very kind, with lots of suggestions to visit Knysna and around. We were there for new year's eve and they offer us a bottle of sparkling wine! You can also have a delicious light meals until 7.30 pm. Car (will be washed on departure) is needed (otherwise is 45 min walking distance from the waterfront) and there is free parking, swimming pool, wifi (but quite slow and work only in the main area). We had a wonderful stay. Highly recommended!!!

We stayed at Villa Afrikana as part of our honeymoon and we were really happy with our choice of accommodation. The owners Bianca and Ross were very hospitable and friendly and made our stay a real pleasure (especially with all the little touches such as chocolate covered strawberries, chocolates and wine on our arrival.)
Our room overlooked a magnificent view of Knysna and we loved the clean modern african decor.
The staff were super helpful, the breakfasts great and all of the recommendations about the local area were spot on.

Would highly recommend staying here.

Set on the hillside overlooking the Knysna bay and The Heads lies this fantastic guest house. Run by two lovely people Ross and Bianca who are passionate about great service and making sure that their guests are completely at ease and in comfort. There was nothing to comment upon that wasn't top quality! Service, food, room quality, location and breakfast!! :)

If you asked us if you should stay for a while at Villa Afrikana the answer would always be of course you should!
