The Place to Stay when in Stilbaai!!!
Everything was amazing from arrival to departure. Me and my husband only arrived at about 22:00 the evening but Kim waited for us to make sure we were settled in first. Michael was also always available for easy communication and directions without even asking. Parking was only a few steps away from our room. Everything was clean and modern. The attention to detail & friendly staff makes this place stand out from the rest. We even received a complimentary arrival box with some local snacks which was much appreciated after a long drive. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you Karee Manor!

Surprised by Stilbaai.
This was our first visit to Stilbaai and we were very pleasantly surprised. It was busier than we thought it would be although nothing like the tourist hotspots along the coast. Karee Manor is a gem, owned by Kim Boezaart and expertly managed by Michael. We stayed in the Premier Suite which was very spacious and extremely well equipped, with wonderful views down the river to the estuary and sea. There was plenty to do for a few days with lovely beach and coastal walks, and a nice golf course set in the milkwood trees. The town would benefit from the addition of some more good restaurants and cafes but the present facilities were adequate.

Must be the best BnB in Still Bay, South Africa

A truly magnificent B and B and possibly the best we have found in 20 years of travelling in South Africa. There is nothing we can fault. If you intend to visit Still Bay in South Africa you must check out this accommodation. You will not be disappointed!

Wonderful find
We just spent an amazing weekend in Still Bay at the Karee Manor. This was only my second visit to this chilled beach town and Kim's Karee Manor made the trip for us. It is a warm comfortable space where the owner thought of everything to make the stay as welcoming and relaxed as possible. Great suites, super comfy beds, yummy breakfast, beautiful views and really just a great vibe. Lovely and can definitely recommend.

Great host. Really nice breakfast. Accommodation is very comfortable. Nice view but quite a long way up from both the river and beech. This has both advantages and disadvantages. The rooms have easy access for people with disabilities.

"dreamlike"

It was supposed to be just a stopover, but we were just overwhelmed by so much beauty and taste! The thatched roof house itself is very beautiful and is located slightly above Stilbaai with a fantastic view over the river to the Indian Ocean. The decor is modern and cozy, selected pictures, a bathroom with tub and extra shower, thick, fluffy towels and shower gel etc. in luxury quality, everything perfect! And then breakfast on the tray, pretty and loving, everything your heart desires ... a stay that couldn't be nicer! Thank you, Michael !!!

Outstanding experience
A beautiful setting overlooking the mouth of the river at Stilbaai.

The room was 5 star. Every facility was available in the kitchen area and the bathroom was ultra modern.

The breakfast was delivered to the room and the cuisine, prepared by Michael himself, gourmet.

We managed to lose the key, but Michael was perfectly understanding and would not accept an offer to replace the key

Outstanding value and certainly not to be missed.

Quiet rooms · Thoughtful amenities · Spacious rooms

What a delightful surprise.... a world class guesthouse in quiet little Stillbay.
Very stylish decor and everything one needs to make your stay unforgettable is on hand.
The attention to detail is on point and the linen is ultra luxurious. The view from the balcony was spectacular and laying on the sun lounger with a G&T watching the world slowly go by was a highlight.
Kim and Michael made us feel so welcome and did everything to make us feel at home. It was very difficult to leave and have to head back home. We could have stayed much longer.
We’ll be back.
