The Phantom Forest Eco Reserve whispers a special magic, from the cry of the Fish eagle to the flash of the elusive Knysna loerie, from the majesty of the timeless Afromontane forest to the glory of an African sunset. With endless views over the tranquil Knysna Lagoon, the Phantom Forest offers guests a rare environment of biodiversity, and by using only sustainable materials, man’s intrusion has ‘touched the Earth lightly’.
Redefining the meaning of privacy, the 14 Tree Suites each comprises a sitting room, bedroom, private deck, and sensual bathroom with lots of glass - only the Vervet monkeys can take a peek!
The Body Boma wellness centre provides a range of treatments, with elements from the wild Skeleton Coast, the fynbos kingdom and the primordial basalt stones of the Namib Desert. With names like ‘Mineral Mantle’ and ‘Forest Fusion’, this is indeed food for the soul.
The Forest Boma serves award-winning international ‘New-Age’ cuisine for the most discerning palate. End a memorable seven-course dining experience on the fire deck with liqueurs and African-blend coffee.
Alternatively, indulge in a sumptuous North African Baroque feast of tagines, dates, and Turkish Delights served in Chutzpah, a Moroccan-styled fantasy with a wrap-around pool.
Outdoor activities include canoeing up the river with a delicious picnic, exploring the forest and fynbos trails where guests can spot some of the 155 bird species, flora and fauna, while golf, sailing, and whale-watching are all within easy reach.
