Villa Ondine: Cape Town Beach House
Tolle Unterkunft, die unsere Erwartungen absolut übertroffen hat. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Leon ist ein Top Gastgeber, der sofort erreichbar u sehr hilfsbereit war. Wir hatten eine sehr schöne Woche in der Villa!!!

Blackwood Log Cabin
Colettes place was exactly what we needed to get away from the city's hustle and bustle. It was so peaceful. There were so many toys my daughter could play with and very child friendly which I appreciate. The place was clean and very neat. The kitchen had everything you could possibly need. We thoroughly enjoyed our short stay.

Chic Boutique-Hotel Feel at a Seafront Pad, Clifton
We loved our stay here while we were visiting Cape Town. It has an amazing view of the ocean and a wonderful outdoor space to enjoy it. The house was extremely clean and well-stocked for our stay, and Naomi was very kind and attentive. There is plenty of space for anywhere from a couple to a large family to stay. We will definitely book this Airbnb again on our next trip to Cape Town!

Bush Baby Haven | Self-Catering House | HWE
Bush baby haven is echt de perfecte vakantie villa. Erg privé gelegen en ontzettend veilig. Wij kwamen hier helemaal tot rust! De ruimtes zijn schoon en ruim. Fijn ook om een douche, bad én buitendouche te hebben. De braai en het zwembad zijn een fijne aanvulling. Maar wat het voor ons echt fantastisch maakte waren de diertjes (met name de Bush baby’s maar ook zeker de duiker, stekelvarken, nyala’s, eekhoorns), zo lief en gezellig (en dus geen vervelende insecten). Tanya is zo hartelijk en vriendelijk! Twijfel niet en ga hier heen om lekker tot rust te komen!

Dassieshoek - Ou Skool
Amazing accommodation. We highly recommend this to anyone looking for a breakaway. Location is in the mountains, but still very accessible to Robertson town and surrounds. Hosts went above and beyond. Especially since we had a bit of a baboon incident, which they handled very well. Cleaned up, offered to replace our food, and even brought us a bottle of rosé.

Keeurbooms Beach House - near Plettenberg Bay
Our stay of five days in the beach house was too short! It was such a great experience to stay at the beach and have the most beautiful views and walks!. The house was very well equipped and although staying at the house in early autumn we even had a day or two to chill at the pool and enjoy shrimps and steaks on the braai. At some point there was a power interruption and Clifford immediately came to action and solved the problem. I would highly recommend the house butat the same time this hidden gem should be kept a secret 😊

Lindi Lodge. Your home, in the Greater Kruger!
The house is very beautiful, exceptionally clean, well equipped, we literally had everything we needed. The view is so amazing with lot of game to see. The host was also very helpful and assisted us with an amazing private game drive. It’s literally a home away from home. Me and my family had a great stay !

A-Frame Cabin in Marloth Park
I had such a wonderful experience at Johan’s beautiful A-framed cabin! From the moment I arrived, everything was just as described, if not better.

Mountain Views at a Smart Hilltop Home with Solar Power
The place was very well kept, spotless and very beautifully decorated. The beds were comfy and loved the electric blankets and hot water bottles. Fabulous WiFi! Spices, sugar and coffee and tea and a heap of extras were also included !! This was fantastic as I had left a few things at home. Would definitely return !!

Veld Villa
I would definitely recommend this place! Absolutely stunning, the pictures don’t do it justice it’s so beautiful! The hosts are so lovely. I can’t wait to come back in October

Ocean Retreat, Romansbaai Beach & Fynbos Estate
We had the most incredible stay and cannot recommend this place highly enough! From the moment we arrived, Rozanne made us feel completely at home — she’s a truly exceptional host: warm, thoughtful, and always available if we needed anything. The home itself is stunning, with stylish and beautifully curated interior décor that strikes the perfect balance between luxury and comfort. The indoor fireplace was a cozy highlight, and we spent unforgettable dinners at the indoor Braai (bbq) enjoying great food. And the view — absolutely to die for. Waking up to the sight of Springboks and Zebras roaming in the distance felt like something out of a dream. Despite its elegant design, the house was surprisingly child-friendly, making it an ideal getaway for our whole family. Every detail was considered. We’re already thinking of our return — next time, to catch the whales! Thank you again, Rozanne, for everything.

Immerson-Luxury Villa with Ocean Vistas
We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this Airbnb! The view was simply breathtaking waking up each morning to such a serene and beautiful landscape was a highlight of our trip. The area is incredibly peaceful and quiet, which made it the perfect place to relax and unwind. Inside, the home is just as impressive. The interior was beautifully designed, with thoughtful touches and tasteful decor that made the space feel warm, comfortable, and inviting. Everything was spotless and well-maintained, and it was clear that a lot of care went into creating such a lovely atmosphere. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would happily stay here again. Highly recommended!

Rust en Vrede Stone Cottages
We had an incredible few nights at Michaels stone cabin, beautifully furnished, super cosy, amazing views, cold plunge pool, hot outdoor bathtubs - everything was perfect! Can highly recommend.

Sapphire Sunset. Panoramic Views. Solar backup
Fantastic stay that exceeded all our expectations! Incredible hosts. I will miss that view!!

Sparkling Modern Ocean Home - The Nolte’s
What a wonderful stay at Sarah's place. We had everything we needed and more. We had 2 todlers and a baby with us and the house was equipped for them. Although there were stairs, there was a security gate for them. We will be back next year for our annual winter getaway.

Seaview & Sunset Haven
Amazing house in a very quiet area of Noordhoek. Everything is as described and even better. Lots of attention to details like qualitative beds, linen, toiletries and a super equipped kitchen. I can only recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing stay with the most amazing sunset views. Thank you! Anthony

Tranquil waterside retreat
Wir hatten eine tolle Unterkunft in Südafrika als Ausgangspunkt für unsere Unternehmungen. Simon war ein toller Gastgeber, immer freundlich und gut zu erreichen. Die Wohnung war sehr sauber, gut ausgestattet und mit Blick auf das Wasser, was will man mehr. Auch Einkaufsmöglichkeiten für den täglichen Bedarf sind gleich um die Ecke. Daher können wir diese Wohnung nur empfehlen. Vielen Dank :)

Bungalow 21 - On Clifton 3rd by Steadfast Africa
A hidden gem! Amazing views out to the ocean and easy access to the beach. We loved our stay and will book again. Not an issue for us but there are lots of steps from the road down to the property which might be trouble if you are less mobile.

bushpod @kruger
The house is absolutely beautiful! We felt right at home. It had everything we needed and more. Very thoughtful. The views were breathtaking with some animals coming right to the doorstep. We loved this place and enjoyed our stay! Definitely recommend.

Xairu at Le Domaine Eco-Reserve (Country living)
We hebben 5 nachten gelogeerd op de prachtige plek Xairu. Het was een waar paradijs! Heeeel veel prachtige vogels gezien. Een schitterende omgeving, comfortabel huis met alles wat je nodig hebt en de communicatie met Yvette was heel prettig. Ze reageerde snel en geen vraag was teveel. Voor wie rust, comfort en schitterende natuur wil ervaren is Xairu DE plek om te verblijven! Ik en mijn 4 reisgenoten kunnen de plek van harte aanbevelen!

Ocean Song | Seafront Escape with Epic Views!
Der Maßstab ist immer, mindestens genauso, wie Zuhause und das haben wir mit diesem Haus gefunden, zu 100%. Selten erlebt, dass jemand die Realität so gut in Fotos festhalten konnte, wie bei diesem Objekt. Ich bin schweren Herzens abgereist, aber ich weiß, dass ich wiederkommen werde, zum Auftanken, die Aussicht zu genießen. Für mich/uns war die Lage ideal, Ruhe, Entspannung, eine so schöne Aussicht. Morgens die Augen aufzuschlagen und aufs Meer zu schauen, einfach unbezahlbar! Das Haus ist mit sovivel Liebe zum Detail eingerichtet und die Küche ist schon eher für Profis ausgestattet. Es ist soviel Wert, wenn man auf seinen Reisen Orte findet, zu denen man doch immer mal wieder zurückkehren möchte. Ich sage bis bald und ganz lieben Dank für die herzliche Betreuung in all der Zeit.

Birdsong Marloth Park
Was für ein wunderbarer Ort! Birdsong ist einfach perfekt und ein ganz besonderes Haus im schönen Marloth Park! Danke Joan für den herzlichen Empfang! Es könnte sehr gut sein, dass wir wiederkommen werden…..:-)

Sea View | Sunset | Secure Designer Country House
We had a fantastic stay at Oliver's place. The house is very spacious, very well equipped and extremely pleasant inside and outside. The location is great, the view is awesome, it gives a feeling of remoteness though very well connected to everything. Perfect to work, to relax or to go hiking around. Oliver was always reachable and helpful. We loved the place and will definitely come back.

Soutpan & Ontspan
Wow! What an amazing experience staying at Johannita’s home! The property is extremely well located. It provides great access to the ocean and is very private. The home is beautiful and well equipped. The communication was amazing. Can’t say enough about this listing. Thanks so much!!!
