Chez Pierre

Our family of 4 had a fantastic couple of nights at Chez Pierre - wish we could have stayed longer. Pierre was the perfect host. The rooms were delightful, the breakfast delicious and the area so beautiful.

A little gem in Knysna! Right when you enter, a delightful vanilla smell enters your nose, and you know you’re in for a treat. Waffles are their breakfast specialty, and these are the greatest waffles we’ve ever had. So fluffy, crispy and yummy! We had the family room, a very nicely sized bedroom with living area, full bathroom with bath and separate shower, plus a separate toilet in a small room on the other side of the bed. Everything was sparkly clean and well maintained. We had a balcony overlooking the pool, where we spent time reading a book and discussing with a good bottle of wine, which can be bought from the kitchen area of the guest house (along with other non-alcoholic beverages). In the morning, the staff had prepared tables for all the guests specifically. It started with a buffet of fresh bread, cheeses, yogurt and homemade granola, with a jar of Belle Maman jam. Then, the staff could make some eggs and bacon to order. Finally, a plate of these wonderful waffles - good as-is without any toppings - concluded this wonderful moment. The host was very knowledgeable about the city and helped us plan our activities in the area. Him, his wife and dogs live in a separate part of the same building and are available daily. They were so nice! And our kids loved the dogs :) We were sad to leave and would have gladly extended our trip if we could.
