Blackwood Log Cabin

NabeelahRating, 5 stars1 week ago
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.

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!

Luxury in nature. Solar Powered. Endless sea views

MohamedRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
One of the best places I’ve ever stayed! The home is beautifully designed, spotlessly clean, and equipped with everything you could possibly need for a relaxing getaway. The stunning ocean view and peaceful surroundings made it feel like a true escape. The location in George is perfect, quiet, yet close to everything you need. The host was incredibly welcoming and attentive, ensuring every detail was just right. I can’t recommend this place enough, a true gem that I would return to in a heartbeat!

Chic Boutique-Hotel Feel at a Seafront Pad, Clifton

ErikaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
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!

Modern open plan living - Gravity House

Billy And MirandaRating, 5 stars3 days ago
James' house located in a very safe neighborhood, considering this is our first time in South Africa, this is necessary to make us feel good, plus we're travelling with 3 small kids. The house is spacey, have everything we need, comfortable, though a little cold during wintertime as it doesn't have central heating, but for adults it's manageable. Distance is also great if you have a car, which is mandatory for Joburg in my opinion. James is also very friendly and responsive, answers to questions whenever he is available, so this was a great find :)

Bush Baby Haven | Self-Catering House | HWE

MariekeRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Bush baby haven is really the perfect holiday villa. Very private and incredibly safe. We completely unwinded here! The rooms are clean and spacious. It is also nice to have a shower, bath and outdoor shower. The braai and the swimming pool are a nice addition. But what made it really fantastic for us were the animals (especially the Bush babies but also the diver, porcupine, nyala, squirrels), so sweet and cozy (and therefore no annoying insects). Tanya is so warm and friendly! Don't hesitate and go here to relax!

Keeurbooms Beach House - near Plettenberg Bay

MariekeRating, 5 stars1 month ago
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 😊

Immerson-Luxury Villa with Ocean Vistas

MignonRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
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!

The Unbound - Escape the Ordinary

DirkRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Wonderful soul-renewal stay. Well designed home with perfect views from every angle. We enjoyed morning sunrise from the stoep and loved watching the surroundings evolve as the sun moves… most amazing colours. Switch off the lights and enjoy the stars from the hot-tub. Well equipped home and many extra surprises (thank you for the welcoming gift). Thank you Willem for the efficient and friendly communication. We’d love to be back!

Luxury living, stellar views, total gem

RuthRating, 5 stars8 months ago
Bert was an incredible host. Not only was the house everything promised and more, they were very helpful and accommodating for our esports team. When we ran into electricity issues they came to our assistance immediately and went above and beyond. I would recommend this stay to anyone and fully intend to return every time I have business in Johannesburg

This was our second stay at Henning’s place and we just cannot get enough. It’s such an amazing serene getaway in the most stunning location and beautiful home. We had a wonderful bday weekend playing games, cooking food and the fireplace was a great accompaniment with the cold weather. The home has such an incredible view of the ocean and can be seen from almost anywhere. Truly a special stay one of a kind stay. Hazel is always so friendly and hospitable. Thank you Henning and Hazel, we will surely be back.

cocoa villa in brousse

Karin Elise & ThomasRating, 5 stars1 week ago
How can you put into words how great Liane and Jack's accommodation is? I don't know, I can hardly find the right words. I'll try: there are several buildings on the property. All in a beautiful, green, lush, palm and succulent overgrown, dreamlike garden. We were able to use two houses: our house, clean, cozy, large kitchen open to large, covered terrace with beautiful sundowner barbecue area and a dream of a POOL HOUSE, with pool and loungers, and tables and chairs... EVERYTHING super clean. Jack and Liane were so generous. Everything was perfectly equipped with wood to make a fire, fruit and water for us,..... The bedrooms both have an adjoining room with single beds for additional guests or children. The mattresses were good and comfortable. Firm and good for sleeping. We felt incredibly comfortable. The host family was very friendly, always available to us. We felt very, very comfortable. Recommended!

Kingfisher House Livingstone

TanaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
The Kingfisher house was perfect for our family trip, and is actually as stunning as it looks in the listing photos! We had a family of 6 staying in the house, and it felt perfect for our size. The living room was open and spacious that was perfect for game nights, and we really enjoyed the pool, even if it was very chilly. The kitchen came stocked with all the things you need to make a home cooked meal and was very clean. The only thing to watch out for is the difficulty in finding the house. If you follow the written instructions that Muftau provides, you should find the place with no trouble, but we still found that others had a difficult time in finding the house. We actually missed a sunset cruise because the tour company could not find the house at all. Otherwise, it was an absolutely amazing stay, and we’ve already recommended the space to others who are traveling in the area soon!

NicolasRating, 5 stars1 month ago
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.

Churchaven, Thorn Tree Cottage

BridgetRating, 5 stars2 months ago
We had an amazing stay at Penny's beautiful cottage in Churchhaven! The house was perfectly simple, yet met all our needs, and was spotlessly clean. The location was stunning, and Churchhaven is truly one of the most special places we've visited. The kids absolutely loved the swing on the verandah, and Penny's thoughtful tips and recommendations were super helpful - especially the advice on which beaches to visit depending on the weather. Communication with Penny was seamless, and she made sure we had everything we needed. We'd absolutely love to come back and stay again. Highly recommend!
