This comfortable beach home was perfect for our family with lots of cozy beds for everyone. The view from the upper deck is fantastic; the perfect place to enjoy your dinner as a family or read a book as the sun is setting.

Lekkerbreek: Modern beach house & indoor fireplace

SarahRating, 5 stars3 months ago
This house is beyond expectations. Fabulous for a multigenerational family vacation. Virtually independent lower floor suite. 2 families, 1 couple, 1 single, all had their own bathrooms. Enough bedrooms for 3 kids each to have own. Excellent outdoor spaces - rooftop, balcony, brai area - all set up for outside meals. Well-equipped kitchen. Well set up for handling beach days with warm shower outside front door and clothes line right there. Spacious entry way gives room for all the paraphanalia of a big group. Very safe roads and easy walks to gorgeous beaches. Very quiet in the off-season. Two local restaurants & a beach shop for essentials in easy walking distance. Many different day trip options for all ages. Overall, our family described the place as "epic".

Watching the tide come in….watching it go out….so relaxing. Super weekend with baby, kids, grandparents and dog. Playing in the lagoon all day and enjoying the quiet splashes of the fish in the evenings. Thanks again Charles and Ryk

Lux Garden Cottage Beach Aloes @ Brenton on Sea

BenRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Our stay with Sonet was fantastic, our 5 border collies were accommodated due to the fenced garden in front. This was one of our main criteria. Thank you. The space was modern, well equipped and functional. Was great that the property had solar power backup should lead shedding have come our way. Well equipped kitchen with dishwasher and air fryer, microwave oven. Close to the beach although during our time there the walk way was under repair due to flood damage (municipal responsibility). Loved our stay and especially the peace and quiet and closeness to beach. Felt right at home. Great hosts will return

Had a great stay here, though it is just for a day. Beautiful location, great view of sea from Balcony. Huge Thanks to Maiette & Nadine - proactive with communication & with clear instructions. Able to locate the home easily and check-in was smooth, though it was bit late at night. Would love to come back here for a longer stay.

Dolphin View Beach Villa

TillRating, 5 stars2 months ago
The house is simply amazing. It’s incredible to sit on the balcony, listen to the ocean and look at the raw beach with its amazing sunset. We also saw twice dolphins, so the name of the house definitely holds what it promises. The interior is so thought through and the house provides everything you wish for and even more. The bed h can be accessed with just a few steps and also the area around offers lots of cafes, restaurants, hiking trails and beautiful nature. Marli is also a great host who was accessible and reacted super fast. Everybody who looks for a stop at the garden route, I can only recommend to stay here

Beautiful cottage in the heart of Brenton. Lush garden with wildlife and birds in abundance. A short walk to the most pristine beach and a stone throw from the local shop and restaurants. Lovely outdoor area, perfect for a sunset braai. From the complementary Bottle of chilled wine to the fresh rusks for our morning coffee we had the perfect stay and will most certainly be back!

A little patch of heaven. Very well equipped kitchen for indoor & outdoor cooking. Lovely beds - good mattresses and beautiful linen. Gorgeous cabin for the 6 of us - just great having a little private beach and use of a canoe. The Loerie and Hoopoe visited us. Alison was very helpful in every way. We would love to come back one day.
