A fabulous, spacious, beautifully appointed apartment with great views over the ocean. There was a lovely garden to sit in with sun loungers as well as a table and chairs. The host sent us lots of useful information about the apartment and the area before we arrived. We wish we could have stayed longer.

    A small village on the east coast between George and Knysna.

    A small village on the east coast between George and Knysna. People are friendly and services adequate for basic needs. Plenty of restaurants catering for a variety of cuisines some of them highly recommended. Beautiful beaches close by and stunning drives into the countryside at your doorstep.

    Wilderness is central to big towns like Knysna and George but is away from the hustle and bustle. Calm, relaxed smaller town with everything you need. Nice restaurants, great beach and wildlife for nature lovers.

    On arrival around 9pm, all the restaurants where closed and there were also no food shops in the area. There were no porters available to bring the luggage in. The hot water settings in the bathtub could not be adjusted to an acceptable temperature. The room had a musky smell. The breakfast the following day was not a buffet as expected and served directly from the kitchen. Our stay was from the Friday to Monday. We booked out the next day and requested a refund as the facilities was not as what was advertised. No refund was given. I will definitely not be staying there again

    We loved that you feel, smell and see nature all around. So much beauty to continue exploring. Grocery shopping was a bit limited in Wilderness. With only the Spar and not a great variety in meat. Would be wonderful to have access to buy local produce - if that was promoted more eg local dairy, farmers etc.

    The Half Collared Kingfisher Trail was a great half-day hike - we hired canoes from the nature reserve camp site. At the farthest point was a waterfall! The beach at Wilderness is great - our kids loved the lagoon, specifically catching little fish with nets. The beach area around "Flat Rock" was also majestically beautiful.

    Excellent facilities and very friendly staff. Price a little too high when compared to other hotels that I have stayed in over the last week. Price the same as b&b at Dias hotel Mosselbay . I would rate Dias hotel 10 overall the same as I.would rate Arniston hotel, but Arniston hotel R300 cheaper per night. Also stayed in Holiday in in the city centre in Cape Town which was R100 per night more than Wilderness and your hotel 1 point higher than Holiday in.

    The most beautiful stay we enjoyed on our honeymoon. We selected the Beach room which had a beautiful beach view enjoyable from the bed. The unit includes a self catering kitchen and stunning bathroom facilities. Wilderness is a relaxed 2 minute walk away. Every aspect of Villa Sol is well thought out contributing to a serene home away from home atmosphere. The staff and owner (Manie) were extremely kind and helpful.

    It is the perfect hotel in the village with a really spectacular view of the lagoon. The room is really comfortable with a unique vibe. I totally recommend staying here for at least 3 nights for Wilderness exploring. The hotel is placed too close to a good restaurant, where you can get really delicious meal. Also, it is too close to the lagoon and ocean beaches. The owners are so kind and helped me with my trouble.
