Houseboat Myrtle

 
 

Description

Houseboat Myrtle is a self-contained cottage on the water. Anchored in the Knysna Lagoon, it's just a two minute dinghy ride away from the Knysna Waterfront.

Myrtle is one of the original Knysna houseboats and has a lovely wood finish, both inside and out. With its two decks, it’s perfect for lazy days floating on the lagoon. From the deck you can enjoy views of the lagoon, the quays and the Knysna Heads. The decks are also perfect for relaxed sundowners, and if you’re up early you’ll find the sunrise quite rejuvenating.

The houseboat sleeps four guests on two double beds. The private main bedroom has its own deck. The boat has a kitchen nook with a stove and fridge and a hot shower and toilet. If you’re not keen on staying in, the restaurants at the Waterfront are easily accessible. Late nights are best spent around the fireplace inside.

Sooooo beautiful!
Silvia Jost, United Kingdom
26 May 2012
Myrtle is such a lovely boat (with a very friendly captain!). We enjoyed our stay very much and can only say: it was too short. There is so much to do around Knysna and we can recommend to plan some extra days if you stay here to spend just on the boat: relax and just be!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We had a braai on the deck and the sunset views make for unforgettable memories. the dingy rides to and from shore on the choppy water can be quite thrilling. The kitchen is more than adequately supplied. The fireplace looked very welcoming but it was not cold enough to make use of.
An awesome experience

Our family had the most amazing holiday aboard Houseboat Myrtle. I have never returned from a holiday feeling more relaxed and at peace than I feel now. This is a holiday that I would recommend to anyone. Thank you so much.

Great time had by all. Will be back! Perfect for a couple. A bit tight for more. Boat was perfectly rustic and we had a blast. Great memories. Thank you!

What a lovely stay - it is something like being at home but on a permanent holiday. It was fantastic and I would like to buy the Myrtle! It is not too posh but also not inferior; a place to put your feet up and just relax. There are some nice fish for the braai too.
