Every once in a while, you stay in a place that more than exceeds your expectations. Rob and Diane are the best hosts I have ever met. This is a beautifully presented, welcoming and luxurious place set in Leisure Island Knysna. Seldom do you find a place that is perfect in every way. The daily breakfasts were heavenly with freshly baked bread and Muffins daily. You can choose from their daily cooked specials or feast on all the other choices. Homemade preserves, yoghurts, cheeses, fruits, homemade muesli, and much more. The rooms are beautifully decorated and open onto a tranquil private garden with loungers. The bed was extremely comfortable and the linen and pillows perfect. The bathroom has a shower and bath, and quality amenities are provided. The rooms also offer a tea and coffee station and a bar fridge. There are USB ports for charging your devices. Bicycles and kayaks which you can use for free. Beach towels, cooler bag and an umbrella is a bonus. Leisure Island is a magnificent safe and beautiful place with so many activities available. I had a personal tragedy during my stay and Rob and Diane took me under their wing and could not have done more to comfort and support me. Thank you, Rob and Diane, from the bottom of my heart. I will be back as soon as I can.

Wir waren während unserer 3-wöchigen Reise insgesamt eine Woche im One on Bollard untergebracht. Es war unser persönliches Highlight auf unserer Reise. Wir haben uns mit unseren Kleinkindern pudelwohl gefühlt, weil uns vor allem die Gastgeber Diane und Rob so herzlich empfangen und betreut haben. Sie haben uns täglich Tipps für Aktivitäten gegeben und uns immer einen Tisch im Restaurant reserviert. Wir brauchten uns um Nichts zu kümmern. Die Zimmer waren top. Es gab sogar einen Eimer mit Spielsachen für den Strand in der Lagune, der nur wenige Schritte entfernt war. Das Frühstück war grandios. Brot, Butter, Joghurt, verschiedene Müslisorten kommen aus eigener Herstellung, täglich gab’s ein warmes „Frühstück-Special“ als Zugabe. One on Bollard ist ein kleines Guesthouse mit wenigen Zimmern, die sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet sind. Zusammen mit dem sehr herzlichen Kontakt zu den Gastgebern macht es den Aufenthalt sehr persönlich und besonders. Wir kommen in jedem Fall wieder!

We had a wonderful stay at this guesthouse. It is a walking distance from the beach, in a very quiet neighborhood. The room has her nice little private garden and the shower is huge. But above all, Diane and Rob are among the nicest people we’ve met during this trip. They are very thoughtful with their guests and they make gorgeous breakfasts!

Unforgettable stay with amazing people
I cannot express how wonderful our stay was. Rob and Diane literally welcome as if it’s your own home with incredible facilities and the best breakfasts we had on our two week trip, we loved it! Our room was so spacious with a private garden and the whole house was beautiful. It was a pleasure to spend time on this gorgeous island and we will 100% return for longer next time, it was a highlight of our whole trip.
