TONQUANI LODGE AND SPA
Bed & Breakfast Accommodation
in Knysna on the Garden Route,
Western Cape, South Africa
Tonquani - "Beautiful Place". A more suitable name could not have been
chosen. The surrounding mountains, lush vegetation and the soothing sound of
flowing water, mirrors the promise Tonquani offers her guests: Peace,
tranquillity and total relaxation, reminding you that there are things more
important in everyday life. The comfort and luxury this beautiful resort has to
offer is immeasurable.
Most chalets accommodate two, and the family suites can comfortably accommodate
five people. Each log chalet is luxurious and individually decorated, have
private patios, air-conditioning, barbecues, and are serviced daily. Four of the
units each have a Jacuzzi bath and fireplace, three units have private splash
pools, and the executive chalet has a private spa for the ultimate in pampering.
Guests can look forward to a healthy breakfast which can, on request, be served
in your chalet. For our guests' convenience we offer an affordable on-site
laundry service. Sun loungers invite you to enjoy the welcoming coolness of the
main swimming pool which is set in tranquil gardens where you can also enjoy a
light lunch at the pool pavilion.
For a truly unique experience, come and stay for a week at Tonquani, and join us
in our annual oyster festival which draws thousands of people to our shores to
celebrate, and from a reliable source, devour more than two hundred thousand
oysters in 10 days! The cultivated Knysna Oyster is unique to this area, and is
famous for its fresh and nutty taste. The wild coastal oyster is also readily
available at local eateries, and are more salty in taste.
Knysna is one of the most beautiful quaint little towns along the Garden Route,
and nestles between the impressive Outeniqua Mountains, the Indian Ocean and
flanked by forests measuring some eighty thousand ha in size, which are managed
to strict conservation principles. These forests are also home to the only
forest elephants in South Africa. Knysna also has some unique but endangered
species such as the Knysna seahorse, the Brenton Blue Butterfly, the delicate
Pansy shell and the dwarf chameleon.
A wonderful experience for adults and children would be a visit to Monkeyland, a
multi-species sanctuary where primates roam freely through the forest. Guests
will be taken on a hour long guided forest walk where more insight is given on
the different primates which range from gibbons, lemurs, capuchins to squirrel
monkeys - all enjoying a natural environment. No physical contact is allowed
between humans and the primates. There are platforms where fruit and vegetables
are provided as the forest does not provide enough natural food. Monkeyland is
situated between Plettenberg Bay and Knysna.
Tonquani is the perfect base from which to experience everything that Knysna has
to offer, including an exclusive and intimate spa experience - ideal for couples
and friends wanting to spend quality time together while being pampered.
Tonquani, multi-award-winning Lodge & Spa - A better choice in accommodation you
cannot make.
