House vacation rentals in Johannesburg

Great stay, friendly host. Lots to do inside and nearby

We had a wonderful stay at this unique home in Kyalami. The place felt like a private lodge, with quirky decor that added so much charm and character. We especially loved spotting the deer and tortoises roaming around—it gave the whole experience a peaceful, nature-filled vibe. The garden, pool, and outdoor area were perfect for relaxing and enjoying the stunning African sunsets. The 4-bedroom house was spacious, comfortable, and well-equipped for a group. Gary, the host, was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout our stay. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a tranquil, one-of-a-kind getaway close to nature.

Our reservation for the size of our group stay was super! The rooms were huge, private and super neat and clean. The ample bathrooms in the house eases the load and no waiting for others to finish. The entertainment and dining areas were so well planned which makes this house an ideal place for a huge family reunion, group or corporate outing or even a workshop for a small executive group. The kitchen is huge and had lovely amenities. Even the cottage was clean and neat, as our big group of 15 utilized all the facilities. We had a power failure in the house but was quickly attended to and there were daylight alternatives. Housekeeping is right up there.

The property was simply amazing. The rooms were big each with lovely ensuite bathrooms. It has a well appointed kitchen and a large dining room table that would sit 10 people very comfortably. An added bonus is the dining room table converts to a pool table. The area is extremely quiet away from the hussle and bustle of Johannesburg and superbly situated to get to the various golf courses we were playing as well as some great restaurants. It has all the facilities for entertaining outside including a swimming pool which would be amazing in the summer months, as well as a large garden. The house is kept spotless by housekeeping who came in every day (except Sunday) to clean and make up the rooms. Finally, I cannot say enough about our host Charmaine. Very friendly and responsive throughout the whole process. Thank you Charmaine, you were brilliant and we all thank you for letting us feel so at home!

The place was amazing, very spacious as well and peaceful. I would like to go back again in summer!

We had an absolute dream stay at Vee's beautiful home. The hot tub was a definite highlight - made our stay even more special. Vee was a pleasure to work with - super responsive, and accommodating. Her hospitality was top-notch. Highly recommend this home for anyone looking for a lovely place to relax.

Awesome place! Super host! Great/safe area. Plenty of room to spread out. Peaceful river in the back. Everything was absolutely great during our stay. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend.

A lovely, large and well equipped house with garden and pool within walking distance of Parkhurst restaurants and shops. A great place to stay if visiting Joburg - felt very comfortable. Hannah was very professional and friendly and we felt very at home.

I had an excellent stay at this apartment in Sandton. It was exactly what I needed for my business trip. Comfortable, well-equipped, and in a superb location. The apartment came with everything: quality utensils, cookware, fresh filtered water, clean towels, and thoughtful touches that made it feel like a home away from home. What truly made the stay stand out was Rebecca and her team. They were incredibly attentive, responsive, and genuinely committed to ensuring comfort throughout. Their hospitality made a real difference in all honesty. The location is a short and convenient walk to Sandton city mall, which has everything you’d need including a Woolworths for groceries. While the area has some typical city energy during the day, it didn’t affect my experience at all, as I was mostly using the apartment in the evenings and mornings. For anyone traveling to Sandton for business or a short-term stay, I can absolutely recommend this place.

Outstanding house. Great location, very quiet, and great amenities. Loved the fast wifi, smart TV, and well stocked kitchen. The beds were comfortable, with great bedding. It was easy to get in and out of the house as we had lots of business to attend to -- would love to stay again.

I had a lovely stay at Lauren's home. As other reviewers have noted, it is such a peaceful, warm place in the middle of the city, with easy uber/car access to everything that you need (I rarely waited more than 2-3 minutes for an uber). The garden area is so peaceful, the home is very well equipped, and Lauren is very responsive and helpful.

One of the nicest places we have stayed in. Tessa is a great host

Victor’s place was amazing! Private and had everything that was needed. The staff were friendly and assisted us with everything. The place is very clean and beautiful! I highly recommend his place to anyone.

We had a lovely stay at Agnes and Francois' place. The house is modern and decorated tastefully with a touch of old, it has everything that is needed for an overnight or a longer stay. We will definitely be back.

We had a lovely stay, no complaints. Anita and her husband were very responsive. We had a barbecue and us ladies couldn’t figure out how to turn on the BBQ stand and Anita’s husband arrived within 5mins to help us out! There was a moment of load shedding and he showed up immediately to turn on the solar before we eben called. The responsiveness made it feel so safe. We felt safe during the entirety of our stay at all hours which we appreciate as we were visiting from Australia so we were super worried before arriving. The house was pristine. The kitchen utensils were thoughtfully selected. Using everything felt so comfortable. We felt right at home and so so so hope that this Airbnb will be available next time we’re back because we will definitely book again! Thank you so much Anita and husband

Michael is very committed, friendly, extremely helpful and easily accessible! The house offers a lot of space for a large group, free space to enjoy and relax. The garden and the braai area invite you to linger for hours. The furnishings throughout the house leave nothing to be desired, everything is in impeccable condition, the rooms are very spacious, it just has a lot of space! The kitchen is very spacious and has all the appliances needed for cooking, baking, sizzling! The house has a lady who takes care of the rooms, the cleanliness and the care of the house twice a week, more on request. She is a very warm and kind person, always happy to help. The gardeners are very committed, keep the beautiful garden very clean and very well maintained. In short: a little paradise. For us as golfers all the more because the house allows the view of the Parkview GC…always exciting to watch how other golfers interpret the game for themselves.

Had a wonderful stay here - beautiful space, clean, cozy, and exactly as described in the listing. It had everything we needed, the house didn’t have a hairdryer and once requested for it Pabi made sure to get one for us which was really appreciated! What really made the experience stand out was our host’s warm hospitality, we felt right at home from arrival. Thank you so much for such a lovely stay! I would absolutely return and highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the area.

We had an awesome stay at Tristan's place, the home is very secure, super clean and comfortable. Tristan is very a responsive and helpful host. Will definitely look at staying here again.

A truly wonderful place to spend a few days (or longer) in the heart of Sandton. I will certainly be back.

Safe and peaceful place, exactly as advertised. Gavin is a lovely host who is very responsive and pleasant to engage with. I definitely recommend this place and give it a 5/5 rating

awesome place, great location, home away from home

Absolutely wonderful stay!! Michelle was incredibly responsive & helpful. Nothing was ever too much trouble. My son and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay and while the neighborhood itself feels a bit rundown, Martin& Michelle’s house is an absolute gem. Thank you Martin & Michelle, we’ll be back!

Tge place was just perfect, had a litle inconvenience and Chad handled it like a pro, definitely a place to come back to

I am a automobile and lifestyle content creator - i visit different countries and visit many guesthouses hotels etc , so i get to experience a variety of different people and places - but i absolutely LOVED Jacobs accomodation for the warm, homely feel. He was accomodating, friendly and so helpful from conception,- I needed to check in an hour earlier because of international guest arrival and Jacob pulled out all the stops to have the place ready to accomodate me at very short notice. The house itself is beautiful and suits any occasions, so should you be looking for your engement parties venues, big milestone birthdays , or even just a photo shoot for an important reason this is it . Thank you Jacob for being the best in the crew.
