The Wilderness Hotel
"We had a great stay at the Wilderness hotel. Staff were friendly and helped carry our baggage on arrival. I booked our stay over a few different bookings and eventually got the rooms sorted and remained in one room. The hotel are recovering from a long period being closed and one cant expect that all facilities are 100%, but the thing that matters are that they are all trying very hard and their effort is noticable. One cant be too hard on them, especially because they are rated 3 star. Definately getting value for your money. Enjoyed the stay and looking forward staying there again... And hopefully notice some improvement!"Show more

Wilderness Beach
"This place has been a holiday destination for me as i was growing up and it still is now, with my own little family. The hotel isn't too modern but it has everything one needs for a comfortable stay. Greatest perk is that the cater for muslims. It is strictly halaal (yay!). The food was exceptional. Breakfasts were different each morning and there is a chef who makes your eggs as you wish. The view of the ocean as you enjoy your breakfast is spectacular! Even the walk to the private beach is so welcoming and refreshing. Being a private person, this was idyllic and perfect for me. The staff was so friendly and hospitable. This was truly one of the best holiday experiences. There's so much to offer and appreciate about this gem. I'm already working out when my family and i can escape to this little bit of paradise again. The 5 hour drive (with a busy baby) is most certainly worth it!"Show more

Oceans Wilderness
"The acommodation is new, clean, and modern.
However, you can get a much better room with half the price in wilderness
There is really no facilities in this place. It's just the room you booked and that's it. The swimming pool is small. The dining area is small and breakfast they provide is not that good.
Most of the rooms they shared balconies with each other.
The pictures don't reflect the real feel of the room.
The bathroom is tiny and, has no ventlation."Show more

"Staying in Xanadu for 4 nights in Presidential Suite during our trip around South Africa. I don't even have a word to describe the view from this room... amazing... breathtaking... beautiful...
Defenitely the best guesthouse on our way! Furthermore it's probably the best stay for last 5 years we're traveling around the world! There're so many kind words was saying to describe this house that I have actually nothing to add except that this are all true. You'll fall in love the decor in the house which is tastefully chosen and the hosts have paid attention to every detail. Communicating with Albert you'll understand what the true South African hospitality is. Don't miss this diamond of Garden Route!!!"Show more

We arrived late at night and had no issues with check-in.
We had to drive back to town about an hour after check-in and it was quite scary as we were two girls driving alone in very dark roads and streets.
Breakfast the next day was really nice and had a homey feel.
We didn't really get to enjoy the pool and the morning views much as we had to leave early.
The owner recommended a few nice places to eat aswell as attractions in Wilderness which was very nice and helpful."Show more

Hiking trails down to the beach are available directly from the property. Views amazing from various points on the property. We stayed in a twin room with the shared bathroom which was a slightly odd arrangement - an outside block with separate male and female facilities. In hindsight, I would book a private bathroom.

On the Beach
"I can honestly say we had two brilliant nights at this exquisite guest house. From the moment you enter the building you go with the wow factor. Simple designs and clear lines this is a very classy establishment. Everything is first class and a lot of thought, love, and care has gone into the fixtures and fittings. Our suite was stunning and the bathroom was a haven of peace and tranquillity. Beautiful candles and towels. The view over the beach at Wilderness was breath taking
Food delicious, staff were friendly and warm unobtrusive but attentive. If we could have stayed longer we would have, it was a superb experience and probably one of the nicest places I have stayed in Certainly the best on this trip to Africa."Show more

"I spent an extra night here once I saw the view from my river facing room. So serene! The hotel is also far from the N2 highway where other hotel guests may hear the N2 traffic.
The hotel has its own canoes so you can use it for free. Eden Adventures is on site if you plan to do more adventurous activities.
Good wifi in the common areas. Friendly staff. Safe parking.
Just don't stay in room 10 (the first room I was given facing the parking - I found it a little mouldy). Without hesitation the receptionist moved me to room 28 on the river which was much better (so good that I extended the night).
If in Wilderness make sure you check out the Map of Africa Viewpoint which is a 10 minute drive up one of the mountains. That view is worth your trip there!"Show more

Fantastic location right next to underpass to little village and right opposite entrance down on to beach. One row back from beach with view from one of the sitting areas. Dined at The Girls which was excellent and so reasonably priced. Beach to walk for miles and a couple of body boards and an umbrella that you could borrow from Wilderness. Water temperatures slightly warmer than Cape Town! We did not have breakfast there as we were self contained upstairs."Show more

Otherwise the room is small; the house is in activity from 16.30hrs getting ready for the evening guests; the main coast road is just across the lake and quite noisy; taxi options are scarce; and its a mile walk to the village. The restaurant food is excellent, but there are better accommodation options in the area."Show more

Moontide Guest Lodge
"We were so lucky to bumped into Moontide's owner while we were at St Francis bay. We had no plan to stop at Wilderness while on the way to Cape Town. Hence it came as a pleasant addition to our trip.
Upon arriving at Moontide, we were awe by this exceptionally unique guesthouse. Moontide's premise was tastefully designed with each guest room tiered, from boat house by the lake, to treetop rooms. We chose the treetop room and had a lovely view of the lush greenery and lake.
The room is beautifully furnished in African theme. There was bathtub and an outdoor shower area. The highlight of Moontide, for me at least, is their 2 intelligent and gorgeous Siamese cats. As a 100% purr cat lover, I am elated to have their company.
Another plus point, they had heated bed. We get to lay in the warm bed, while keeping the balcony door open, feeling the cool winter breeze.
Our biggest regret, was that we can't afford to stay another night as we had a schedule to meet."Show more

"Definitely not for the refined traveler. No towels provided for thos staying in the accommodation. Very basic indeed, The ablutions need a massive upgrade. Communal Kitchen heaving with cups and overloaded fridge. Only for students and backpackers I feel.. Staff friendly enough but although the surroundings are very lush and pretty. there is a constant stream of people meandering around. A table and chairs outside my room with a constant night light shining in to the glass door made it a rest spot for those in serious and normal voiced conversation right outside. I suppose it didn't dawn on them that someone else may be trying to sleep ! I have to say that "mindfulness" in among the nature lovers is a tad lacking ! One needs to consider others if you are in a shared" spaces. The cost ? A hefty R518.00 for a very basic bunk bed.... down the road R800 for a luxury room with gorgeous bathroom use of all facilities as well as a FULL breakfast. No comparison.

Moontide Guest Lodge
"We were so lucky to bumped into Moontide's owner while we were at St Francis bay. We had no plan to stop at Wilderness while on the way to Cape Town. Hence it came as a pleasant addition to our trip.
Upon arriving at Moontide, we were awe by this exceptionally unique guesthouse. Moontide's premise was tastefully designed with each guest room tiered, from boat house by the lake, to treetop rooms. We chose the treetop room and had a lovely view of the lush greenery and lake.
The room is beautifully furnished in African theme. There was bathtub and an outdoor shower area. The highlight of Moontide, for me at least, is their 2 intelligent and gorgeous Siamese cats. As a 100% purr cat lover, I am elated to have their company.
Another plus point, they had heated bed. We get to lay in the warm bed, while keeping the balcony door open, feeling the cool winter breeze.
Our biggest regret, was that we can't afford to stay another night as we had a schedule to meet."Show more

Nima Lodge
"Situated high in the forests over Wilderness this boutique lodge is a must for any romantics who love privacy and natural surrounds. John was there to greet and show us our parking bay (even in the rain), cooked all our meals, served us; answered all our questions; and recommended where to go! Great location, great service, great accommodation. "Show more

Boardwalk Lodge – Self-Catering

"We enjoyed our stay at Sea Paradise immensely. The staff was every helpful and friendly, the views were great as you are right on the beach. You can walk right onto the beach from the back garden, no need to cross a road or walk far. Salinas Restaurant up the road is amazing, great views and great food."Show more

The Old Trading Post Guest House
"I travelled to Wilderness in July for a conference and was looking for a quiet place to stay for a few days. The Old Trading Post was the choice and I don't regret making it. It was very comfortable and the attention given by the hosts was excellent. Although a little out of the main centre, the drives each day around the lakes were genuinely pleasant and a great way to start and end the day."Show more

Dolphin Dunes Guesthouse
"We got a unit (I think suite 6) which allowed us access to a kitchen and lounge area. The kitchen didn't have an oven, only stove top. If you like plunger coffee take your own plunger. Everything else was absolutely great. Lovely size room, fridge and kitchenette to make coffee, electric blankets on the bed, heater in the room, lovely sized bath, good water pressure for shower. For breakfast you have a nice view from the main house, overlooking the sea. They have quite a wide range of options for breakfast including omelette, fruit salad and muesli, flapjacks with banana and bacon, plus three other options. You are not even 2 minutes drive from several restaurants, the spar, and shops. I would definitely stay here again."Show more

Haus am Strand - on the Beach
"We arrived late after a long car journey in the dark and engulfed in smoke from the forest fires in Wilderness. Rita informed us by phone our key was in the letter box. A misunderstanding occurred, unknown to us there were two keys and we had taken the first one we were able to feel for, visibility was so poor we it was impossible to see the key at the back of the letterbox. We ended up staying in a tiny room with none of the kitchen or sitting room arrangements. After discussing it with her the next day, again by phone , there was no apology on her behalf just blame.
I left feeling very aggrieved at her rude and unkind manner. To top it off the room we stayed in came with an empty beer can in the chandelier! The house is a great location but the decor is reminiscent of an old people’s home. Poor value and overrated."Show more

Defenitely the best guesthouse on our way! Furthermore it's probably the best stay for last 5 years we're traveling around the world! There're so many kind words was saying to describe this house that I have actually nothing to add except that this are all true. You'll fall in love the decor in the house which is tastefully chosen and the hosts have paid attention to every detail. Communicating with Albert you'll understand what the true South African hospitality is. Don't miss this diamond of Garden Route!!!"Show more

On the Beach
"I can honestly say we had two brilliant nights at this exquisite guest house. From the moment you enter the building you go with the wow factor. Simple designs and clear lines this is a very classy establishment. Everything is first class and a lot of thought, love, and care has gone into the fixtures and fittings. Our suite was stunning and the bathroom was a haven of peace and tranquillity. Beautiful candles and towels. The view over the beach at Wilderness was breath taking
Food delicious, staff were friendly and warm unobtrusive but attentive. If we could have stayed longer we would have, it was a superb experience and probably one of the nicest places I have stayed in Certainly the best on this trip to Africa."Show more

The Wilderness Hotel
"We had a great stay at the Wilderness hotel. Staff were friendly and helped carry our baggage on arrival. I booked our stay over a few different bookings and eventually got the rooms sorted and remained in one room. The hotel are recovering from a long period being closed and one cant expect that all facilities are 100%, but the thing that matters are that they are all trying very hard and their effort is noticable. One cant be too hard on them, especially because they are rated 3 star. Definately getting value for your money. Enjoyed the stay and looking forward staying there again... And hopefully notice some improvement!"Show more

Wilderness Beach
"This place has been a holiday destination for me as i was growing up and it still is now, with my own little family. The hotel isn't too modern but it has everything one needs for a comfortable stay. Greatest perk is that the cater for muslims. It is strictly halaal (yay!). The food was exceptional. Breakfasts were different each morning and there is a chef who makes your eggs as you wish. The view of the ocean as you enjoy your breakfast is spectacular! Even the walk to the private beach is so welcoming and refreshing. Being a private person, this was idyllic and perfect for me. The staff was so friendly and hospitable. This was truly one of the best holiday experiences. There's so much to offer and appreciate about this gem. I'm already working out when my family and i can escape to this little bit of paradise again. The 5 hour drive (with a busy baby) is most certainly worth it!"Show more

Fairy Knowe Hotel
"I spent an extra night here once I saw the view from my river facing room. So serene! The hotel is also far from the N2 highway where other hotel guests may hear the N2 traffic.
The hotel has its own canoes so you can use it for free. Eden Adventures is on site if you plan to do more adventurous activities.
Good wifi in the common areas. Friendly staff. Safe parking.
Just don't stay in room 10 (the first room I was given facing the parking - I found it a little mouldy). Without hesitation the receptionist moved me to room 28 on the river which was much better (so good that I extended the night).
If in Wilderness make sure you check out the Map of Africa Viewpoint which is a 10 minute drive up one of the mountains. That view is worth your trip there!"Show more

We were fortunate to sight the Knysna Lurie .JD phoned our room to tell us it was feeding on the breakfast patio. It is a magnificent bird. Gerald and JD provide an amazing breakfast starting with a cold spread of fruit,cheeses,cold meats,croissants,muffins,assorted breads and cereals and yogurts. All this is followed by an English Breakfast or a variety of egg dishes.

This coastal village is nestled against the Kaaimans River and Goukama Nature Reserve and is also bordered by the Outeniqua Mountains and Indian Ocean.

The beaches of the area create for true relaxation, and scenic drives can be made to explore outside the town.
