Leisure Bay
When we arrived, we went to the wrong place and Graham came to collect us - he even helped and carried some of the bags. The apartment is stunning. Overlooking the sea - what a view! I can't wait to go back because I was not disappointed. By the way - the security lady was so helpful.. Graham is a gem as he kept on checking how we were doing..

Florentia, Bantry Bay-Saunders - The place to stay
Aidan was a great host, of this fantastic apartment, with a breathtaking view, immense sun exposure, in a premium location, very well furnished with excellent taste. All excellent, second-to-none experience in Capetown and one to repeat.

All that you need in an open plan APT * Sea Point
It was a lovely stay, but please change the bathroom window. It is completly see-throgh and not very privat. Everything else was perfect and i will come back.

Portside Miramar, Bantry Bay
Great stay, place was even better in person , had a relaxing stay with amazing view , lots of places near that are walking distance . Very secure building with helpful and friendly caretaker.

Amazing Ocean Views from Every Room! Backup Power!
Views... unbelievable. Better than what the photos suggest. The apartment is spacious and comfortable and safe. Check in was stress free. Information about the apartment is plentiful and makes for a stay where you are not guessing about anything. We didn't really explore the local area - there is a supermarket about 200m up the street. You can also walk safely along the beach near Milnerton Lighthouse. We found the area to be an easy distance to drive in an out of the CBD/Waterfront area daily.

Stylish Beachfront apartment
Pam's place was incredible—we recommend it to anyone headed to Capetown! It is just across from the Promenade with a spectacular view of the ocean and hang-gliders. There was easy Ubering to everywhere in the city, and was walkable to Woolworth's for groceries. The bed was really comfortable, the building was quiet, there was an elevator, the kitchen had tea and coffee and sugar and milk, and the heated towels from the rack in the bathroom were a treat! Pam was amazing. We were delayed by two days in getting to Capetown, and she graciously offered to slide the timing of our stay. She met us at the apartment and showed us all the details of getting in, and then fixed a minor problem with the dryer immediately. We have stayed at a lot of AirBnBs, and this experience was one of the very best.

Sea Front, Load Shedding FREE, Artsy Apartment
Loved the flat, lots of great light and a view of the beach - super spacious and exactly as the pictures. The bath is super nice. Eloise was great a communication and gave us a flexible check out which was much appreciated. Will miss this gem :)

Roomy Art Deco flat, Fresnaye/Sea Point, Cape Town
Location was great, a couple blocks from the ocean and very quiet neighborhood, and so amazing to be close to Mojo Market for drinks and every type of food you could want. Apartment is super cute with lots of art, books and cute touches. Having outdoor space is nice for morning coffee and evening wine with a lovely view of the Lions head. Kitchen has everything you need for cooking, shower is lovely and beds very comfortable.

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.

Entire house 2-bedroom, garden and backup power
This is my second time staying here and it still is the best place to stay in capetown so safe and with the sweetest most responsive hosts amazing to stay for an amazing get away or to relax super clean comfy beds gorgeous outside area just perfect

4 Bed Townhouse At The Top Of Kloof St!
We had an amazing time staying at Colin’s place. He was a great host that was attentive and always helpful whenever we had a question or needed something. Communication was seamless throughout our stay. The place was beautifully furnished with a modern, stylish touch and had all the essentials we could ask for. It felt like home away from home. The location was absolutely perfect - right near the top of Kloof Street, with easy access to some of Cape Town’s best cafes, restaurants and attractions.

Big Family & Friends Holiday Home for Summer
The second time we have booked this house, and it was just as great as it was the first time. The house is huge, with all the things you need for a week or two. The outside area is lovely the whole day, and the rooms are tastefully furnished, and has great art. Very efficient and friendly communication with Roelof, including many good tips on restaurant and things to do.

Luxury townhouse in vibrant De Waterkant
Zebra house exceeded our expectations in every way. This lovely, old and characterful house is beautifully decorated with art pieces; the kitchen was cosy and the beds were wonderfully comfortable with high quality linens. The Bo Kaap neighbourhood is central for many activities and has some great cafes and restaurants. Helet greeted us on arrival and give us lots of information about the area and Cape Town generally. We had a fabulous stay and would love to return.

Stylish Renovated Beach Home with UPS
Lovely property with view of sea and mountains. The private pool deck was great and the sauna a novel bonus. The table on terrace and braai were sheltered despite a howling wind during our stay. Kitchen fully equipped. Rooms were very comfortable with gorgeous views. A lovely place to wake up for a big birthday thanks

Stroll To Beach, 3 Bedroom Villa & Private Pool
Our stay was perfect. The house was close to the beach and local restaurants and grocery. Everything we needed was provided. We were happy to have a w/d and soap was provided. If we come back to Cape Town we would definitely stay again.

"The Palm" Unique Beach Retreat
This house is a magical place. The views are spectacular. The owner is amazing and responsive. His property manager was available and understanding. The house itself is in pristine condition, caters to your every need. The bathrooms, linen and crockery was exceptionally clean. Overall, just a wonderful experience. Highly recommended.

Greek Apartment in Clifton + Sea & Mountain Views
I had a fantastic stay in this apartment! The apartment was spotlessly clean, well furnished and had everything you need for a comfortable stay. The bed was very comfortable, the kitchen was fully equipped and the WiFi was fast and reliable. The apartment was located in a quiet, safe area. The host was very kind and helpful which made our stay a great one. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend this apartment to anyone visiting Capetown. Special mention that the BBQ on the balcony with such an incredible view was just something!

Casa Vista - Luxe designer apartment in Camps Bay
We had a wonderful host and found the location truly amazing. This is definitely a place I'll be returning to!

(509) Stylish Apartment with Stunning Bay Views
My parents and I enjoyed our stay at Brett & Henry's apartment in Milnerton. The apartment was SPOTLESS and looked exactly like the pictures. The sunset views of Table Mountain were breathtaking. The location was close to Canal Walk. The apartment had everything we needed, we enjoyed the access to Netflix & DSTv, the fans in both rooms, and appreciated the thoughtfulness of providing body wash and shampoo for both bathrooms. The only minor downsides were related to the surroundings which are entirely out of the hosts' control - we noticed a few homeless people around the tennis courts at the front of the building (they didn't bother anyone though) and Koeberg Road was very busy with lots of Taxis and busses which tend to abruptly stop in front of you (we had a minor accident because of this). Despite this, I would highly recommend this place. Brett & Henry were super responsive and we loved that we could text them directly with queries.

Waterfront Living
Zama’s apartment is lovely. It was spotlessly clean on our arrival. We felt safe and made use of the secure parking. The kitchen is generally well equipped, but the pots and pans are not in usable condition. Others have mentioned the long walk to the waterfront. It’s about a 20-30 minute walk if you follow the pedestrian path along the canal. Continue with the canal path opposite the city lodge hotel all the way to the waterfront and it is quite a lovely walk that didn’t feel taxing for us. The canal walk is open between 6am and 8pm. It’s about a 7 minute drive to the furthest waterfront parking. It was a bit noisy. We stayed over a weekend. The restaurant downstairs played loud music from their outside speakers. There was also some traffic noise. We still slept well though and the bed was comfortable. All-in-all it is great accommodation, good value, and excellent location for exploring Cape Town with a car or uber.

Wake up to the waves. Modern, spacious, ocean view
Beautiful house,Lesley was responsive...so much to do in Capetown.We enjoyed our stay..The bed was comfortable.

Parker’s Park Lagoon
Rene's place is nothing short of spectacular. It's perfectly situated with beautiful views of the ocean and the mountain. Very comfortable, modern and clean. if you forgot something, be sure that she might have it.
