It was so much more than amazing. The suite, the view, the area, surrounding it was amazing and beautiful! Peaceful and quiet. There's no words to describe this little piece of heaven. The birds chirping, even had a little visit from a tortoise, but no one bothering you. Each place is on their own so we didn't even see the other guests. I don't think the pics could even describe how amazing this place is. We're definately doing this again.
There was nothing not to like. From our side I think the only thing is that we booked for too little days. We're definately staying longer next time.

We had a very pleasant stay in the Deluxe Studio. It was easy to correspond with Graham and he always replies promptly. Very easy and clear instructions by means of a video how to get to the Apartment and where to find the key in the lock-box with a code to do self check-in. The bedroom and ensuite bathroom are spacious with a big comfortable double bed. There are enough cupboards to unpack all your clothes and belongings. We could prepare our meals in the kitchenette and have a braai in the Weber on our balcony. A nice place to unwind for a few days and to enjoy the beautiful surroundings.
Although the Studio has a kitchenette the layout of the kitchen-area is a bit cramped. The positioning of the small counter top (behind the basin), makes it difficult to get easily to the crockery in the cupboard underneath the basin. There are some pots to use on the induction stovetop, but an induction frying pan (to bake eggs / bacon) will simplify the preparation for breakfast. Personally I felt that a wooden spoon, a grater, a tin-opener and scissors would have come in handy as well as a few glass or plastic bowls to prepare and dish up salads and food. All and all we have managed to prepare our own meals.

Everything. Beautiful view, easy checkin/out, plenty of space in the sea view, great patio view, great location almost on the end of the head, great host ask what you like, he knows so many places to go and see, no safety concerns could not recommend enough. We are from U.S. it’s absolutely beautiful here and resembles Hawaii in many ways. Will return and stay again. View is from the top roof deck. Across you’ll see the other mountain head which is featherbed reserve. If you zoom in on the mountain base you see the arch and some of the walk. Enjoy and take care of it and you
Too short of visit

Graham is such a great host. From when I almost arrived, I received videos on where to park, where to enter, etc, even the check out. This was amazing. Everything was flawless. The entire apartment was flawless, 2 showers (even if I was just one person). They are totally off the grid. There is a space that you can sit and work on your laptop as well. The unit is very private and has quiet surroundings. The Views are just spectacular from this unit. P.S. I forgot to take photos when I arrived so the photo are from the morning I left. :-)
Nothing to not like

Beautiful property with some incredible views where you can see the forest, beach, and the nice neighborhood. Graham was very helpful with the checking-in instructions provided along with the recommendations. We had a designated parking spot. We also ordered a pizza from the recommendation list, and we were very satisfied. Well equipped with the essentials, with the ability to barbecue as there is charcoal available for purchase, along with some massive cold brews ;) If I could, I could live here for a month haha!

The apartment is right up on the knysna heads, which is just a short drive from town up to the top on the heads. Self Check-in was super easy. The host sent a video showing exactly what to do. Communication with the hosts is excellent and via whatsapp. There's an undercover parking bay allocated for the one bed apartment. The fridge is stocked with a few beverage items that you may purchase off the menu. The apartment is furnished with electric blankets, which helped a lot!
Our room was the one bedroom apartment. It was mostly comfortable aside from the ensuite door having the top half glass so you could see right through it into the bathroom. The bedroom doesn't have a door to separate from the living area. There is a window next to the toilet that opens next to the kitchen fridge on the other side - it can't be closed - but thankfully, it is frosted glass. Aside from the structural oddities of the place that made it inconvenient for two friends to stay, the place was still comfortable.

I liked the privacy that Graham gave us but, was also accommodating and ensured that we had the basics. The view on the lookout deck was breathtaking and the studio apartment was quite spacious. The warm shower every time of day was very refreshing.
I wouldn’t really say I disliked that but, the room can be quite cold but it was bearable as there were extra throw fleece to wrap ourselves in
