36 guests' feedbackOwner kept in touch with us while we were on our way. Upon arrival we were immediately welcomed. Our stay was fantastic.
Had a really nice stay. Cute little place with everything you need. Clean and friendly reception.
Very nice stay. The place is very neat and beautiful and value for money.
The unit is well equipped with everything you could need, it's clean and quiet. Kathryn is a very friendly and helpful hostess.
Kitty was an amazing host. Friendly and very helpful. The apartment was neat and we absolutely loved the decor.
Very good service, would really recommend.
We travelled to Knysna for a sporting competition. The venue was great! We were informed when loadshedding would be happening and lamps were provided. There was good Wi-Fi that was not interrupted during loadshedding.
It was a breathtaking experience and the accommodation was top notch.
The host was very nice and was very helpful. We saw and enjoyed so many places because she guided us. And there was no discomfort in terms of the cold weather we had in the evenings. We were exhausted and hot. Thanks for everything Kitty. You're beautiful.
I would book there again anytime.
I wasn't even there during the day at all and didn't even have a vehicle parked overnight. The water pressure to the unit is so low I couldn't rinse my hair. Had to get out and draw water in the bath, which took a long time to wash. Needless to say I only tried washing there 1 time. Also went to sleep a night prematurely in another place.
The owners went out of their way to make us feel at home!
In all of my experience of travelling this was certainly the best of the best.
Friendly service. And the owners incredibly peaceful and hospitable. One feels at home. Location incredible and neat. And plan your next holiday at Footprints.
Very nice stay. Beautiful view from the deck. Even in the morning when it is foggy, it is very nice to stand outside for your cup of coffee.
The only problem was the weather, we couldn't enjoy the beautiful pool, but for sure next time. Kitty is the friendliest host I have ever met. Will for sure stay there again.
The swimming pool was also a pleasure. The stay was more than we expected. Definitely value for money. The owners were very friendly and helpful about the best places to eat and things to see.
Kitty and Dannie are friendly and hospitable people. They care a lot about their guests' comfort.
Kitty received us hospitably in freezing weather. The place is well equipped with heater panels in the sitting room and bedroom and an electric blanket. What a beautiful view today the wooden deck! Will definitely come again.
This was my second time here and I had a wonderful time again. The host is very knowledgeable and makes you feel very welcome. The location is ideal and an excellent base to explore the area. I hope to go back again!
Footprints of Knysna was spectacular. It was clean, private, safe and it had the best view ever from the patio. We enjoyed every moment. The owner was friendly and extremely helpful. She recommended places to eat, things to do and so much more.
Die ontvangs was goed. Gasheer het baie moeite gedoen om ons welkom te laat voel en baie pamflette gegee om Knysna te besigtig.
I enjoyed it there, it was a fantastic experience.
Footprints of Knysna is a very nice place, within minutes of everything, but also lovely in a quiet street. Very neat, clean and comfortable. Kitty has a lot of info about what to do, where to go etc, and likes to share that info. Would recommend.
Footprints of Knysna is in a safe and peaceful area. Very good, friendly services. I'd definitely recommend it.
Had a wonderful time at footprints of Knysna. Just a pity my stay was too short. Will be back next year if not sooner.
What a cute guest house. From arrival to departure we were treated very kindly with genuine warmth. The host and hostess are fantastic and helped us with a lot of advice about places to eat, what/where to visit, ideas for driving around, places to stop etc. The room is beautifully decorated and everything I can think of was available in the room. The house is in a safe neighborhood and close to grocery stores. We can recommend it for a quick stopover or a longer "self-catering" destination.
A nice place to relax.
This place is definitely recommended. We were very happy and satisfied with what was offered to us.
Mooi plekje, zeer netjes. Uitzicht vanaf balcon uitstekend.
Thank you very much, it was nice to stay there. We felt comfortable and it was nice and tranquil. We will stay there again next year. Thank you very much.
Had a wonderful and hospitable welcome it's worth listening to Kitty for advice on places to eat and where to go.
We had a wonderful time and our unit was so pretty. The owner, Kitty, was very helpful and friendly.
This place is the best, if you want to get away from the city life and need a well deserved brake, this is the place to stay. Friendly people, very relaxing.
We were in the Blue Room. Will stay there again. Can recommend the room. We loved it!
My family and I had a wonderful long weekend. I can definitely recommend this guest house. Owner immediately made us feel welcome. Great service.
