Leisure Isle is a stylish and charming lodge ideally set in a beautiful and secluded location on a tiny island in Knysna Lagoon, right at the heart of the Garden Route. Leisure Isle itself is steeped in history with grand mansions sitting alongside cosy beach cottages, but this lodge is designed in a classic, stylish and warm style with a theme of greens and whites carried across by lilies, orchids and bamboo.

The elegant and bright restaurant overlooks the lagoon and the outside pool area is a great place to relax in the sun on a comfy chair or lounger. When you are not relaxing at the lodge or swimming in the lagoon, take some time to explore the island and the bustling town of Knysna. Spend an afternoon browsing Knysna’s art galleries and boutiques, take a boat trip to the Knysna Heads that guard the entrance to the lagoon or explore the small harbour, ensuring you sample fresh Knysna oysters. You are also well placed to access the long list of Garden Route activities that ranges from visits to animal sanctuaries and long deserted beaches to forest canopy tours and seasonal whale watching.
