Modern Victorian Apartment off Kloof St
What a beautiful home away from home! I absolutely loved everything in Justine & Terence’s place, so tastefully designed. It is extremely spacious and thoughtfully equipped with everything you could possibly need. The personal guide is detailed and has great tips for exploring the area. It’s not often you find such a calming oasis within walking distance to great restaurants, shops and the company gardens or parks. Justine is a fantastic host, very quick to communicate and provide all the info I needed for a seamless self check-in. I highly recommend a stay here!

Chic & Luxury City Stay | Aircon | No Loadshedding
Exactly what I was hoping for🤙🏼🤙🏼 10/10

The Soulty Nook: 2 bed in the heart of Cape Town
This spot was awesome!! Such a cute apartment. It’s in a corner so has great views of Obs and surrounding areas. Kim was a super host. Safe parking. Great walkability to delicious restaurants and cafes. Highly recommend!!

Studio in trendy Woodstock
This stay was one of the most incredible experiences ever!! From even before we checked in, our host was kind, communicating well, and accommodating. The check-in was painless and easy! Craig was there to receive us, see us off, help with anything we needed at a moments notice, overall he is an absolute pleasure to interact with. The pictures do NOT do this accommodation any justice. It is beautiful, clean, well furnished, and has all the amenities you could think to need! The fridge and pantry were stocked with all kinds of goodies and snacks. We had some of the best tasting tea and coffee there too, the rusks were phenomenal! I would go back again and again, and recommend this Airbnb to anyone who would listen.

Sun-kissed apartment with harbor & mountain views
I loved every moment at this place. It was clean and beautifully arranged. The views were amazing, and it was centrally enough located for us. And we had an amazing time. I loved this place. Will definitely recommend it to others as well. Easy to go around with Uber. Have shops around in walking distance. Andrew was a great co-host. Always ready to assist with all we needed.

Lovely, chic 1-bedroom apartment
Had a great stay for 3 weeks in Avu's place. The apartment is in a modern, safe block of apartments, with a basic gym room on the ground floor (dumbbells, bench, treadmill, cycling machine, rowing machine), and 24h security desk. The flat is spacious and clean, with a small balcony which overlooks a petrol station, but has views of Devil's Peak. The shower is excellent and the bedroom is comfortable. There is a washing machine/ dryer which works well. The cleaner comes on Wednesdays, leaving the place spotless. I was based in Groote Schuur, and for this the location was ideal, just 10 mins walk to the main entrance of the hospital. 5 mins walk on the other direction to Obs. There is secure parking within the building, and I found driving round Cape Town straightforward, although Uber is cheap and readily available at all times of day and night. Avu was a responsive host, and he even provided a netflix password as I couldn't get mine to work (there are no regular channels on the TV).

A Comfortable Hideout for Extended Stays
Stefan’s appartement is conveniently situated, near restaurants, a shopping mall, the freeway, and the university. It has breathtaking views and is comfortable. Stefan is a great host who goes the extra mile in making your stay comfortable.

Vredehoek Bliss: City Oasis
I had a fantastic stay at this apartment in Cape Town! The place was exactly as described, very clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. It had everything I needed for a relaxing stay, and the location was perfect for exploring the city. Communication with the host was smooth and easy, which made check-in and check-out hassle-free. I’d definitely recommend this apartment to anyone visiting Cape Town and would happily stay here again!

1 Bed, Rooftop Apt in Cape Town City Centre
Amelio was a very responsive host. He was quick to answer any questions and offer help when needed. The wine was a lovely touch. The endless views were amazing. Would happily stay again.

Unique and cozy Woodstock apartment
I loved the interior design of the place and having a little patio area. The space is optimal for 2 people. The area has sufficient infrastructure — supermarkets, pharmacies, some cafes in walking distance, but also easy to commute to the city center and other points of attraction. Suzanne is a wonderful host — very friendly, helpful and easy to communicate with.

Trendy Woodstock Apartment
What a gracious host! Her place was clean and really lovely. Loved the antique decor throughout the unit. We’ll definitely be back 😊

Sunset beachside penthouse
We stayed at this apartment in Cape Town for two nights and, as always, the experience was fantastic. The views are absolutely amazing — a peaceful and private setting without much foot traffic, which made it feel like a true retreat. The apartment itself is clean, neat, and compact, with a very modern kitchen and bathroom unit that had everything we needed. A great spot for a quiet, comfortable stay in the city. Highly recommended!

Modern and cosy 1-bedroom apartment in Rondebosch
The place was spotless, and security excellent. If you want to get to restaurants and amenities they are a short drive away. As a woman travelling alone, I felt very safe and the apartment had everything I needed for a a pleasant stay. The owner lives around the corner which put my mind at ease in terms of assistance being close by.

Executive Oasis (Marine Tank) - City Apartment
Had a great stay. Wonderful host, loved the tank feature. It’s a great location, safe parking, clean accommodation. I would highly recommend.

Modern Apartment in Salt River
Great place to stay. Felt at home. Everything you need is provided. Very central if you planning on being out and about and exploring Cape Town.
Apartment rentals with a hot tub

Crown Comfort - Lux -Private Heated Pool & Hot Tub
The stay at the villa was very wonderful and the owner of the villa, Catherine, was very kind and helpful. The villa is private and has everything you need.

Balnamoon self-catering apartment
We loved staying here. The weather was a hot mess over our stay and the plunge pool was a dream (it's shaded all day) and there is great AC in the bedroom. The photos don't do the balcony justice – a neat little place to eat dinner each night. The apartment is a laughably short walk from supermarkets, Vida and Prashad's (vegetarian Indian food 10/10), super safe, well-supplied kitchen. Alleyne was very welcoming and kind enough to provide us with milk, bread and fruit on arrival – a nice touch when you're staying for a few days. In a few words: homey and a bit like staying with family (in a good way).

Exceptional Condo with Jacuzzi
its a place I would recommend to others as the host made us feel welcome*

Seaside Studio Camps Bay
Great apartment in the perfect location! Cara was super responsive and flexible! Would 100% stay again!

Exquisite Penthouse |De Waterkant| Jacuzzi+Rooftop
The apartment exceeded our expectations. Even tho we booked the apartment in the evening of arrival, the host answered quickly and super friendly with all information needed. We absolutely enjoyed the (sadly just) two days we had there. Especially highlighting at this point the whirlpool with stunning view of the Table Mountain. Would definitely choose this for my next trip again.

Stunning 2-Bed Apartment with Table Mountain views
A refreshing space to be in, the surrounding was perfect everything is nearby. It is literally in the canal walk mall so convinient.
Beachfront Penthouse - Cape Town - Nautica 704
