Our mostly indigenous gardens are well-maintained with an abundance of beautiful bird life. Sit on your deck and watch the kingfishers, spoonbills, egrets and cormorants while sipping on an ice cold glass of champagne. Let the call of the fish eagles thrill you.

Our chalets are equipped for self-catering but our off-site caterers can supply gourmet picnic hampers, breakfast and suppers.

-         Where Are We? 

 Situated six kilometres from Knysna central on the Phantom Pass Road at the White Bridge over the lagoon approaching Knysna from the west, we are within easy distance of the beaches at Brenton-on-Sea, Buffelsbay, the Outeniqua Mountains and the famous Knysna Forests where elephants still roam free.

The picturesque Phantom Pass road was built in 1862 and it was named after the elusive white Phantom moth found in the surrounding indigenous forests. The road links up with the stunning Seven Passes Road between Rhenendal and George, named after the seven passes negotiating the deep river valleys of the Outeniqua Mountains.

-         Cycling Heaven

The area around the resort is ideal for more energetic cycling on a mountain bike, and also for road cycling – the road into Knysna is perfectly flat and safe, and it is possible to cycle around Knysna town on mostly flat roads as well.

Phantom View Lodges is the ideal place to explore and enjoy all the beauty and adventure activities the Garden Route has to offer.
