This experience I had at this lodge was the worse ever. The pictures on the site are very misleading. The beds, the rooms and the kitchen were dirty. During the night on one of our stays other people were brought to the premises in the night without permission. The manager promised a refund if we did not give a review of the property and when we got home, the refund was not honored. I really recommend staying away from this place. I would rather a pay extra than ever going with this lodge.

This is not worth your money. They are over priced. The photos do not justify this place. The rooms are dirty. The lights aren't working. The towels are washed out and do not even match. No milk for coffee. They have a communal kitchen and there is no sanitizer anywhere while we in peak of covid. I would not recommend this.

Appears newly revamped. The spacious kitchen/dining area was perfect for a large group as ours (16 guests including children). So if you are looking to book an entire manor house (self catering) in knysna at reasonable rates, this will do nicely. I didnt give 5stars because the oven did not work properly on the 3rd day of our stay. Other than, I cant fault it unless I nitpick. PS: It sleeps 14 adults in 7 well appointed double-bedrooms. Centrally located as well.

The owner is rude and does not care for her customers. Wifi was bad. Water running from bathroom to the room i had to put towels and her cheap robes on the floor to dry out the water. No housekeeping on site. Dirty pool. Do not reccomend her place or her agency TravewithTravelers. Had to pay extra for flights last minutes. Other people drove from JHB to Knysna but trip promised that flights incluided. If i did not pay extra i would have been on a bus for 14+ hours. Owners name is Lydia Senate. A mess of a place a mess of a woman. All we got was a watsap text saying oh sorry this sorty that.

Everything!!! Everything was appalling. The walls had mould. The sheets and bedding was dirty, had to go buy our own. The bath tub and toilet were leaking and we had to use towels to prevent the water from running all over the place. The sink tap wasn't working. There was no manager or owner on site, no Wi-Fi as advertised, water was cold on one of the mornings, just a mess, a health hazard even. It'd like no one cares or bothers to check rooms before new guests arrive. Really just do disappointing. STAY AWAY from this place.

From the minute we arrived we were treated amazingly by the host, and our tour guide (Bradley) assisted us with basically everything. It was neat and all appliances/necessities were provided. Lovely stay.

Beautiful place to be.Excellent service. Rooms clean and fresh. Interior luxurious and Morden.Overall great stay at a reasonable price. I will be returning to this place in the near future.Thank you

What a small paradise is this place, family or group of friends, this place will accommodate and you'll make good memories, great finishes for picture lovers, a must visit.

We went there on the 16th of October 2022, the room they gave us stank so bad...it had mould everywhere, the extra blanket in the closet was smelly and filthy, the robes in our rooms where extremely dirty and smelly too...dstv not working and also no housekeeping there...the worst experience ever...I would rate it zero and not recommend it to anyone

My friends and I we had an awesome long weekend, Senate Boutique is absolutely amazing it is clean and has everything you need to make your stay comfortable. The staff (cleaners) they are awesome and the host went above and beyond, making our stay supper enjoyable. Bradley is the best host ever we called him Daddy because he exceeded our expectations :) he was our photographer and driver, constant communicator and always willing to assist with everything. If I can rate them 10 stars I would do it in a heart beat! Thank you couldn't ask for more.
