I've just been reading some of the other reviews of this hotel and I'm not sure if they were unlucky, we were lucky, or something has changed between their stays and ours but I can only say we had a really good experience at Lake Pleasant Living. We stayed for two nights in a superior room overlooking the lake which... more

We stayed at Lake Pleasant for only one night, while traveling up the Garden Route. We managed to get a good rate on our room as we were only staying for night and the room was booked out on either side of our arrival dates. I thought the room was great - but I do think we were lucky to... more

We were booked into Lake Pleasant Living as part of a fly-drive tour of South Africa. It was sold to us as 5 star luxury accommodation, but the reality was far from the expectation. We received a very surly "welcome" and were lead downstairs and along a dark and dingy corridor smelling strongly of mould overlaid with suffocatingly sweet disinfectant.... more

In a beautiful setting overlooking an amazing lake, Lake Pleasant I'm afraid, is looking a little tired..... This place would have been amazing 10 years ago, but all in all, there's a little faded grandeur about the place - rooms have generic cherrywood furniture that is scratched, carpets are old, actually everything is old. Taps in bathrooms are ancient 1970's... more

This hotel was reccomended by Siyabona Travel. Nice setting on a picturesque lake approxamatly 3 miles from Knysna. Very large, comfortable rooms. Ours had a balcony overlooking the lake. Great sunrise over the water. Well equipt spa with indoor pool, sauna, steamroom and weights. Outdoor pool just out the glass. I agree with an earlier review that the breakfast was... more

We spent four nights here after travelling for over three weeks in South Africa and it was very pleasant to spread out in these very spacious suites which are indeed considerably bigger than my first apartment. The pool area and the gardens are delightful and while Knysna and Plettenburg are easily reachable, there is no feeling of being right in... more

We have just returned from a weeks holiday at Lake Pleasant and can't wait to go back again. The setting is stunning, the service and quality of the hotel ranks amongst the best we have experienced and my personal favorite the abundance of bass just waiting to be caught just yards from our bedroom door. As a family with two... more

This place was recommended to us by a couple who we'd met in S Africa and we didn't really know much about it. Luckily we were very pleasantly surprised and it's a great place to stay on the Garden Route if you want somewhere away from the crowds. As the name suggests this place is situated on the edge of... more

My husband and I stayed at Lake Pleasant with our 10 years old daughter and had a wonderful time. The setting is very picturesquem and we were able to enjoy the perfect lakeside view from our room - great for bird watching. Room itself was spacious and large, with a bed in the lounge area for my daughter. Everything you... more
