Indulgent Spa Experience

During my recent stay in January 2024, I treated myself to a good spa session at the Turbine Hotel. The spa offered a variety of treatments that left me feeling completely pampered and rejuvenated. It was the perfect way to unwind after a long day of exploring. Highly recommend!

Fantastic Culinary Journey

I had an absolute culinary adventure while dining at the hotel in March 2024. Each meal was perfectly prepared, and the flavors were stunning! The New Year’s dinner was particularly lovely. The atmosphere added to the overall dining experience, making it nice.

Stunning Room with View

I stayed in a spacious room with a amazing view in May 2024. The decor was modern, and the room had a lovely balcony. I found it to be a cozy oasis to relax in after a busy day. It truly enhanced my stay, as I loved waking up to the stunning scenery!

Lovely Pool Experience

On my trip in July 2024, I enjoyed spending time at the hotel’s lovely pool. The view was absolutely amazing, and it was a great spot to relax and soak in the sun. It served as a perfect backdrop for relaxation amidst the beautiful setting of Knysna.
