Artspace Guest Suite (Solar powered)
Have stayed here at ArtSpace before, and just like the last time, the place was absolutely perfect. It is clean, spacious, organized, functional and free of clutter. There is a patio outside where one can sit down and relax - read a book, or work on the computer. The WiFi connection is strong and reliable. There is solar power so no load shedding anxiety. Hot water is available and plentiful, and the pressure is strong. The area is safe and secure, and not only is there off street parking, you actually get to park in the garage. The garden is amazing, and you can lounge here or at the gazebo, or by the pool. Most of all the place is beautifully dotted by contemporary art that mesmerize. The place is near all the services and facilities you will need - malls, shops, restaurants, service stations, hospitals and clinics - making it a very convenient base for those special errands. This is the home you always have a reason to come back to. And the host, Teresa, is just wonderful.

Serene Family Cottage, Uncapped Wi-Fi
I came with my 3 kids and hubby from CT. This was very peaceful and relaxing. I love clean bed..white linen and comfort. My kids could also play in the garden for hours. We spend lots of time on the patio even at night. In between we could also focus and do some work. The kitchen was very clean. The host was amazing and helped us with anythig we needed. It felt like home. Thank you so much.

Stunning cottage with Sandton skyline vista
Alex was a very friendly, helpful host! The cottage is in a beautiful space and very secluded, set apart from the rest of the property. We enjoyed our stay and have already made plans to return!

Cottage@45A Parktown North Central to Rosebank
Martin’s cottage in Parktown North is a great place to stay in Joburg. It’s located in one of my favorite neighborhoods, and is walkable to coffee shops and restaurants, etc. It’s located on a quiet, tree-lined street. Martin was a fantastic host, proactive and responsive and making sure I was comfortable and had everything I needed. I’d highly recommend the cottage and Martin as a host for visitors to Joburg!

Melrose Jacaranda; modern, quiet, work space.
Great place! Highly recommended. Safe, clean and comfortable.

Heron Cottage in Sandton. Self catering & secure.
Return visitor — consistently comfortable, stylish, and friendly place to stay. Private and peaceful, but very centrally located to explore JHB.

Sophisticated Elegance at "Allo Allo" in Sandton
I had a comfortable stay at Louise's property. The place was sparkling clean and you get to have your own space. The host is very responsive at all times and she allowed me to check out at any time since it was a public holiday that day, I appreciated that gesture as I was not in too much of a hurry to leave the place. She also offered to have my laundry done since I was there for a couple of days, I unfortunately saw the message on the last day of my stay but luckily I didn't need any clothes to be washed. Thank you Louise for being an amazing host. I got to enjoy a walk around the area as well, it is very peaceful and secure.

VEGAN HOME - Barn in Linden, privately all yours
It is a hidden gem—an Airbnb that felt like a proper escape in the heart of the city. The separated barn-like unit was a spacious retreat adorned with a private garden, perfect for moments of tranquility. What made this stay truly special, however, was Kim, the host. Her warmth and attentiveness transformed a simple visit into a memorable experience, as she catered to every need with genuine care. For anyone seeking a blend of comfort and charm, I wholeheartedly recommend this enchanting haven. A perfect sanctuary awaits, where the city’s hustle fades away, leaving only peace and beauty in its place. Damir

This was my second visit to Lesley's place. Its such a lovely, peaceful and secure place. Lesley is such a cheerful person, very helpful and responsive host. Thank you once again Lesley. Will definitely be back again and again 😊.

The Ginger Oak Cottage
It was our third time at Heleens' and Charls'. And we will keep bouncing back for good reasons! Location, atmosphere, equipment and all the extras. So many tastely arranged details. First of all, though, Heleen and Charl were our unrivalled hosts. Thank you!

Lemon Tree Cottage
Beautifully decorated cottage in lovely location next to the park, coffee shop and shops. Spent a lovely Christmas there, had an amazing kitchen with everything you could need.

Red Panda @TheZoo
Beautifully laid out and very clean and comfortable. I only had the pleasure of the one night but will definitely be back. Parkview is very pretty and the local village centre still has a lot of character with some really cool restaurants and pubs.

Hotel Apartment with pool view in Randburg
Amazing and clean

Cottage of Eden
We've stayed here twice now, and each time has exceeded our expectations! The space is comfortable, spotlessly clean, and perfectly private. We loved it even more than our first visit! Highly recommend for a relaxing getaway!

Modern Sandton guest house in a secure residential
This was an amazing stay! 😊 Keitu & her team were wonderful hosts! The place is clean, secure and close to all the Sandton hotspots! I’m going to miss them dearly! ❤️

The Cabin at Davidson Place
Lesley was very flexible and provided everything we asked for without hesitation. She made our stay comfortable. The bed and sofa were very very comfortable, there were a lot of extra blankets. The view is very beautiful and everything was very clean. It was quiet and pleasant. This place is like a home, we didn’t feel that there was something missing. Lesley also provided a lof of choices for coffee which is very appreciable. Everything was very organized and we found a lot of towels. I highly recommend her place, the only thing is to confirm the right address with the host before coming as Airbnb mentioned an other address nearby. Thank you Lesley for everything! Best cottage ever:)

The Stylish Suite (Self Catering). No Loadshedding
We really enjoyed our stay here. It was very cosy and comfortable and suited our family well. Nicole was very accommodating and Thando was a superstar. Thanks guys

The Humble Abode
The Short stay here made me feel very at home and although i left halfway for other things,i would definitely choose this place Again if i needed to return to Johannesburg😄

Kestrel Loft
If it was possible to rate 100 I would, this has been by far the most relaxing and clean Airbnb I used for working. It was a perfect spot, closer to all beautiful shopping malls. I was able to do all my errands around Johannesburg. The cleaner Thobi was the sweetest esp when I was not feeling well. I am surely coming back here for my month or 2 months off. Thank you Larissa, you were amazing. Wishing you all the best and blessings.
