Out Of Kruger
This place is amazing especially when you want to leave the city and release There is soo much privacy

Glen Beach Penthouse A on Glen Beach in Camps Bay
If you’re reading this review, it means you’re considering this rental. If this beach-front property is available, don’t waste any more time and simply rent it! My wife and I have rented AirBnB properties around the world and this rental was spectacular. One of the best places, if not the best place, we’ve ever rented. Mary-Louise is a very responsive host, her place is spotless clean, large with 2 bedrooms and has a multi-million dollar view. Only steps away from the ocean, falling asleep to the ocean was so relaxing and the only thing we wish was to have been able to stay longer than just 3 nights. My work colleagues was raised in Cape Town and recommended Camps Bay over the V&A area and we were so happy we listened to him and stayed on Glen Beach. Thanks so much Mary-Louise for an amazing stay!!!!! Should we ever return to Cape Town, we will definitely be a repeat guest.

Casa Karoo
We absolutely loved our stay. Everything in the house was thoughtfully decorated. A mix between high end appliances and retro and rustic decor. Amazing backyard to braai, tasteful decor outside with abundance succulents. Wish we could stay longer. Absolute gem of a place!

Private path to beach, back-up solar power
We enjoyed our stay very, very much! The view is just mesmerising and waking up to that was wonderful. The house is super well equipped. There was even dishsoap, dishwasher tablets, handsoap etc. provided. I found that exceptional. ♥️ The furniture and interior design is very modern. We loved that! And the house was clean. The house looked bigger in the pictures, but it’s just our impression. And we definitely still had everything we needed (and more). It was the right number of bedrooms as in the description and this is the most important thing for us. And there was even an entertainment room in the garage. It was awesome! Thank you 😊

Oceanfront Villa 4br/4ba pool wifi, solar power
I honestly cannot put into words how wonderful Bruce’s home is! It has everything you could possibly need, loads of space, comfort, a fabulous pool and absolutely awesome view. The area is unmatched with lots to do all around. Bruce is highly responsive and incredibly proactive and kind. This house is incredibly special and my family and I are already thinking of when we can get back to stay for longer! Thank you!

Luxury Safari Lodge in Kruger Park Nature Reserve
We loved our short stay here. The kids spent hours in the two beautiful swimming pools and the adults soent hours watching the different wild life pass through the area. Staffan and the staff team were extremely responsive and nothing was ever a problem.

Seaside Mountain Retreat in Misty Cliffs w/ Sauna
Justin's house is absolutely beautiful. Decorated with great taste, well-equipped, with this breathtaking view of the ocean you almost feel like you're in an old boat with all the modern comforts. The sauna with a sea view is magical. The multi-level garden is incredible. And Justin was available every time we had a question. One regret: not being able to stay longer.

Mountain and Sea view apartment 1
Thank you to Candy Ann and Jason for a wonderful stay. We appreciated the beautiful clean apartment with absolutely everything we needed , very comfortable bed and pouffes and couches to enjoy the few. What a wonderful experience to sit in bed and watch the sea at sunrise hear the waves crashing at night. The Apartment is pet friendly completely fenced and private. Walking distance to a variety of coffee shops and restaurants for yummy take aways and the local beach is beautiful clean and a lovely walk with pets. A quick and beautiful drive to Kalkbay and Houtbay for the best dim sums at Yesca's Teahouse and amazing churros at Olympia Café was an added bonus. Jason was such a lovely considerate host and gave us a wonderful experience of Kommetjie and we are already planning when we can go back .

The Knysna Garden Apartment - No Loadshedding!
We had a wonderful stay at this lovely Airbnb! From the moment we walked in, it felt like home. The electric blankets and wall heater were a huge bonus, keeping us nice and toasty during our stay. The room itself was a perfect blend of charm and coziness. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and would definitely recommend it to others. Thanks to the host for creating such a warm and welcoming space!

High quality studio in modern building.
Another wonderful stay ! I hope to return soon.

Sky Light Apt 4
What a beautiful lady! What a beautiful place! Stunning finished ( may not be to everyone’s pallet but it was perfect for me!) and just the quiet was loud at first but only because I am from JHB and all I know is noise… but she was so kind to me and totally understood and helped me settle beautifully in the silence.✨✨✨ Love love love this place! I’ll try come through in summer when the weather is more accommodating for outdoor activities but to be honest all I wanted was to be in peace and quiet and I got exactly that!❤️❤️ Thank you Yvonne💐 Really appreciate your hospitality ❤️✨

Savor Uninterrupted Views at Spacious Green Point Apartment
What a amazing Airbnb experience with Tacha! She welcomed me and we immediately felt like old friends. She gave me a ton of great tips. The house is just amazing, beautiful decor, comfy bed and bedsheets, the view is amazing some days I could smell the sea water! You can walk everywhere or get a uber it always like 5$ for a 10-15 min drive. You should definitely book it 👍🏽

2br luxury Waterkant village apartment
Our stay at Philipp’s place was fantastic. From the moment we booked, we could tell Philipp was an exceptional host. His communication and care were outstanding. When we arrived, he welcomed us personally, helped with our bags, and gave us a mini tour along with much-appreciated coffee recommendations. One detail I especially loved was the beautiful handbook he’s put together with thoughtful restaurant recommendations and personal notes. It was such a lovely touch and really shows how much care he puts into creating a wonderful experience for his guests. Once we settled in, I have to say: impressed is an understatement. I can be quite particular, and this was truly an excellent stay. The apartment is tastefully decorated, with high-quality appliances and thoughtful complimentary touches throughout. I’d seen the other glowing reviews, and they’re absolutely well earned, as is the feature in Condé Nast Traveller! Thank you so much, Philipp!

Ultra Modern, Spacious 2-floor Flat in City Centre
Joshua is the kindest host we’ve ever met. Our preceding Airbnb apartment was uninhabitable as there was NO running water available. We asked Joshua whether we could move in one day earlier and he immediately accepted our request without hesitation. He went above and beyond to liaise with the co-hosts to prepare the apartment for our family of 5, even though my booking was for a family of 3. He didn’t even want to accept my offer of compensation for the extra night! Joshua and Seraj welcomed us personally to the apartment despite our last minute imposition on them. Joshua was very emphatic to our situation and accommodated us out of the kindness of his heart. We enjoyed our stay at Cape Town thanks to Joshua and the team. Much appreciated!

The Hidden Lookout (Yellow Room)
An absolutely great experience. Perfect location for a peaceful stay, away from the rush. Great and friendly host- constantly communicating and checking in. Views are breathtaking and don’t get me started on the serenity and peaceful aura of the place Worth every cent.

City Center Penthouse with private rooftop terrace
5-star stay. Nothing could prepare me for the spectacular views of Table Mountain reserved just for us on the rooftop. Very central in a great location. Brandon went above and beyond to ensure that we had all that we needed and we were able to leave our luggage before flying out. I wish we could have booked more days to stay here!

Absolute Beachfront Apartment-Direct beach access.
We had the most wonderful stay in Langebaan this past weekend! The unit is perfectly situated right on the beach, offering the most breathtaking views, we could have spent all day just soaking them in. Our hostess was incredibly thoughtful and went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable, especially with our 11-week-old baby. She had a camping cot set up for us and even provided a changing pad in the room next to the main bedroom, which made things so much easier for us as new parents. The unit itself was clean, well-equipped, and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. We felt so welcome and at home. Highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for a peaceful beach escape, especially families with little ones!

Kalk Bay Hamster House
The most amazing, cosy but spacious airbnb. I really enjoyed my time here. The space is beautifully decorated and has all the comforts of a fully functional home. And with the Ocean to great you right as you step out the door- what more could one ask for.

Modern Cape Town City Apartment & amazing views
Anna's apartment is located in the vibrant complex of 16 on Bree, surrounded by lively cafes and offering a great atmosphere. Security in the building is top notch, which made me feel safe and comfortable throughout my stay. Inside, the apartment is spacious with separate living and bedroom areas, beautifully decorated to create a warm and inviting environment. The standout feature, however, is the breathtaking panoramic view of Table Mountain, which you can fully appreciate from the large balcony, truly unforgettable. The host Anna, was very responsive, and the apartment was impeccably clean. There were plenty of thoughtful amenities, making my stay even more comfortable. Overall, 2902 is a real gem and I highly recommend it!

Hot Tub, Pizza Oven & Sea views. No cleaning fee
BEAUTIFUL!! We both said the for value for money, location and the actual apartment this is our favourite air bnb we have stayed in. Felt very safe, great host, literally no complaints! Town is a few mins walk, great restaurants and Seakrit was our favourite coffee spot (10/10) Thank you!

Chez la Mer with 180 degree Seaview
A nice break away from the city. Sitting outside on the patio and listening to the ocean is magical. We had a great stay and René was super quick to sort out a small hiccup we had. Highly recommend this place.
