Family-friendly holiday rentals in Melkbosstrand

We had a lovely stay at Imraan's! The house and the view were so stunning and that made one almost not want to leave the house at all. We also got great recommendations and communication was also very easy. Thank you!

What a wonderful time we had in Alex’s beautiful Higgovale House with its special atmosphere. A home from home we felt immediately at ease. The tropical gardens give the feeling of being in the midst of the jungle - despite being only minutes from the lively Kloof Street with its many restaurants and coffee shops (wine bar/coffee shop/deli Tamboerswinkel deserves a special mention). We felt very safe at night and enjoyed being able to access Cape Town‘s sights quickly. A highlight was our hike to Lions Head - again only a stone throw away from the house. Alex’s great communication throughout our stay was not surprising, given his friendly welcome and advice and whilst we didn’t stay long enough to get to know her, housekeeper Barbara also seemed very friendly and attentive. We will be back!

The location for the Tree House is simply fab!!! Views of the mountain from the house and quite centrally located to move around near hout bay, and even V&A was not too far! We’d go back in a heartbeat!

Fantastic experience! The place was spotless, stylish, and exactly as described. Super safe and in a great location. Highly recommend.

Spacious apartment with everything we needed. Waking up, opening the curtains and watching the sun rise over the sea, whilst sipping a morning coffee was truly special. He best start to the day. A fantastic base to explore from and it was lovely to come back to and relax at the end of the day, felt very homely.

We had an absolutely fantastic stay at The Mountain House. You will not regret booking it! Peaceful and tranquil while still being close to restaurants and shopping at Kalk Bay. Hiking literally on your doorstep and Fishhoek and Muizenburg beaches easily accessible. The views are amazing and the hot tub is something special. The kind of place you never want to leave. Carin and Miles are excellent hosts. We hope to be back soon.

We had an amazing time at Jochen's House in Cape Town! This was our second visit, and once again, everything was perfect. We especially enjoyed the stunning rooftop view and the relaxing jacuzzi. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a peaceful and beautiful stay!

Very beautiful place to stay, felt at home right away. Has loads of space. Very peaceful and quiet. Didier was very helpful and responsive. Awesome property!

Probably the best Air BnB experience we’ve had. Wonderful place. Wonderful hosts. Wonderful views. Close to what the village has to offer. Don’t scroll or look any further! Book with Jason and Candy.

I have been to many hotels and appartments all over the world: This one is the winner in the category "Unusual and spectacular"! The view is unbeatable and the place has a very relaxed atmosphere. Keep in mind, two of the beds are upstairs with a very steep ladder, we decided to not use them and sleep downstairs in the main living room. Also bring some earplugs, the sea can be very noisy, the appartment is just a stone-throw away. All in all: 5*****

Always a pleasure to stay at Stuart’s place. Thank you kind Sir

Admittedly - the photos in the listing look too nice to be true, but if you are in the apartment, then everything is even better !!! This incredibly breathtaking view of Table Mountain and the bay - you don't really want to leave the apartment again. But that would also be a shame, because the close to the beach invites you to extensive walks and various restaurants and bars are within walking distance. The apartment itself is functional, smart and nicely furnished. Everything is very clean. The quality of the mattresses ensures a good night's sleep after intensive vacation days. The rental car can be safely parked on the premises. In short, I was there for four days and would have loved to spend a few days, but unfortunately the holiday was over. What a great end to the vacation! Thank you Liz !!!

We had a wonderful stay at Philip's place. The house is very spacious and the location is great. It was easy to communicate with Philip and he was very flexible. We stayed for a bit over a week at the beginning of our South Africa trip, and booked again for our last night as we liked the place so much.

I stayed in Dorette's flat for 5 months, and it really did feel like home. The neighbors in the apartment building were very friendly, the flat managed to remain cool during very hot days, the courtyard was very peaceful and private, and Dorette herself was very friendly and very responsive to my questions. I have fallen in love with the Vredehoek area, it is very peaceful (when it isn't windy!) and it was an enjoyable walk to the local grocery store and coffee shop.

Daleen's cottage is an absolute gem! Loved it!

We have just had a month's stay here and could not have been happier with everything - host, accommodation and location. The accommodation was spacious and extremely comfortable and we really felt at home. Spencer is an amazing host - he is on things straight away and is super friendly. The location was excellent - close to Constantia Village with shops and supermarkets and a short walk/drive to the wine farm Uitsig with its many restaurants which have lovely views and a really pretty rose garden. There is also a river walk a short way down the road from Spencer's house ( right turn past the horses) that is very pretty. We loved our long stay here and can highly recommend it to locals and visitors to Cape Town. Ticks all the boxes

Perfect location for city vibes. The patio with Mountain View was to die for and hosted memorable family reunion braais. Kitchen had everything we needed. My sons took a quick uber to table mountain early for a sunrise hike.. while we did the cableway. Washer and dryer was great to have. We felt right at home. Secure. Two parking bays. We ubered all over the place, Uber was always quick to respond. We walked Bree and Kloof street for shopping; and had lunch at “Our Local” which was recommended by Johan and we second this emotion! The food was incredible. No complaints. Beds comfy with electric blankets if needed. Close to everything. Wonderful stay. Debbie who came in to clean on the last day was a gem. Thank you for everything!

Very nice place, spacious. Appreciated the rooftop pool and views. Generally pretty well located, but on a busy street.

Easy access to some spectacular scenery- Noordhoek Beach and Chapmans Peak Drive. Very close to good brewery and restaurants. Carolyn’s a friendly and responsive host with helpful local knowledge. We would stay again.

Location is brilliant with easy access. Spacious and having the single bed in the lounge is a winner. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This is a lovely house, perfect for our big family group. The views were spectacular, standing out on the balcony watching the sunrise was quite something. The house was well situated, a bit of a walk down to the town (and a more painful walk back up the hill!) Yvette was very responsive to a couple of teething niggles, which was helpful, as were her recommendations for local spots to visit.

Freda is a very kind and responsive host. We enjoyed staying in her beautiful space. Would highly recommend.

Pierre’s 1 bedroom apartment in Cape Town is comfortable and has a great view of Table Mountain and Lion’s Head. You can watch the light change from dawn to sunset from the big livingroom windows. The apartment was surprisingly quiet given that it is in high rise building with many other apartments surrounding it. The people who work at the reception were friendly and helpful and we felt safe inside the building. The bed is comfortable and overall the apartment is clean and functional. We were there at the start of summer and the space can get hot and stuffy in the afternoon when the sun pours in. There are two standing fans but they don’t do much to help cool the air temperature. The kitchen is sufficiently well outfitted for making basic meals and we appreciated that oil, vinegar and other pantry basics were provided. Dominique, who welcomed us and gave us our orientation, was very sweet and communicated well with us. This is a good place for a couple to stay when visiting Cape Town.

From the moment I made contact with Elschen - nothing was too much for her. She even accommodated the agreed upon check -in as my flight was delayed. Pristine conditions and also the surprise goodies in the fridge. I wish you many more accommodating guests for the future!
