Chez Pierre — it’s a slice of paradise where summers feel magical 

This summer, travellers seeking a destination for a quality holiday, to de-stress from long days at work, or a place to reconnect with nature will find it all and more at Chez Pierre. Tucked away on Knysna’s Leisure Isle where coastal scenes meet a tranquil atmosphere, this nautical-inspired guesthouse welcomes guests with warm smiles and the inviting aroma of homemade waffles. There, cosy rooms, generous breakfasts and access to a variety of nearby outdoor activities create more than just a getaway; it’s a slice of paradise where summer feels magical. 

Embrace the beauty of Knysna this summer at Chez Pierre 

From the moment guests step toward the front door, they feel at home at the double-storey guesthouse. With its beautiful, covered terrace and deck that stretches around to the swimming pool, owners Pierre Deckers and his wife, Lynn, welcome guests from near and far, each wishing that their summer stay could last forever.  

At Chez Pierre, guests can book their summer stay in one of the six double rooms. Each room, draped in white and dark blues, comes with an en-suite bathroom and can comfortably accommodate up to two adults. The connecting kids’ room additionally accommodates two to four children, making it an ideal place for a family holiday.   

Each room comes with features and amenities specially included to add a sense of comfort, such as a hairdryer, a ceiling fan for the warmer days and Wi-Fi. The smart flatscreen TV with satellite DSTV is perfect for a movie night, and the tea and coffee stations offer the best way to start each morning.   

Throughout the spring and summer, guests are welcome to dine outside while enjoying their complimentary breakfast freshly prepared each morning. The cold selection offers fresh fruits, yoghurt and croissants. They also serve hot, cooked-to-order dishes such as eggs, bacon, and mushrooms, along with their famous homemade Belgian waffles, loved for their light and fluffy texture. 

Embark on a summer adventure with nearby activities 

A summer holiday is the perfect time to embark on an outdoor adventure! At Chez Pierre, guests can spend the day relaxing at the swimming pool while sipping on refreshing drinks from the honesty bar. In the nearby areas, birdwatching enthusiasts will love the abundance of bird life, and with a bit of luck, whales may be spotted breaching along the coastline. Dine at the nearby restaurants or embark on a wine tasting experience. Guests can also maintain their fitness goals through mountain biking, cycling or a quick game of tennis.

About us

Actually, Home Food and Travel offers a lot more than just reviews of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities.  We also visit great destinations, receive advice from interior designers and stop to smell the roses and taste the coffee.

Our team of journalists are seasoned travels and love visiting the myriad of exciting places around South Africa.  Whether it is off the beaten track or in the heart of the top attractions of the country, we’ll be there,

Home Food and Travel advice on finding the right accommodation

So what is the right accommodation?  Well more often than not, it’s your travel budget that dictates the type of accommodation that you choose. 

Expensive is not always better.  Our team at Home Food and Travel will tell you that they have camped in areas with limited ablutions and had a wonderful holiday.  They have also spent a night in a five star hotel only to be disappointed because their expectations exceeded the experience.

The reason for your travels will also affect your choice.  A business trip requires different amenities to a beach holiday. 

Our articles, reviews and experiences can certainly help you make your decision.

Restaurants with a good mix of service, food and ambiance

To my mind a great restaurant offers three things – excellent service, great food and a wonderful ambiance.  Of these, service is the most important. 

No matter that the food is delicious and the setting delightful, poor service can ruin the occasion.  However, great service combined with mediocre meal and a plane jane restaurant can still be a pleasant night out.

We’ve eaten in restaurants that are really dirty but with incredible food and couldn’t help but give a rave review.  We’ve also hardly noticed what we ate because the setting was just amazing.

However, the best restaurants come with the best of service, food and ambiance.

Spas are the ultimate relaxation aid

How do you know when you have had a great spa experience?  The answer, of course, is when you doze off on the treatment table. 

Well that’s our theory anyway.  It also doesn’t take a grand location with enormous facilities for a spa to be really good

A small, personal spa that is owner run can result in the best massage you have ever experienced.  However, the grand spas in five star hotels offer unsurpassed facilities in an environment that just makes the stress in your shoulders and neck melt away before you even finish checking in.

Adventure!

You don’t have to be an adrenaline junky to enjoy an exciting experience.  In fact, what are commonly termed adventure activities usually have incredibly high safety standards and unblemished safety records.

Ziplining, bungy jumping and shark cage diving are all very safe.  It’s just that our mind tells us we are craaazzzzyyyy to be doing this.

On the road to great places of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities

If you’re driving, be safe and make use of all the wonderful farm stalls that populate South Africa’s open roads.

If you overhear somebody asking a lot of questions or see someone taking photos of empty bedrooms chances are it’s one of our Home Food and Travel team members.

We’re out looking or those great places of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities.

See you on the road!
