Light and Bright in Bantry Bay
My family and I had an amazing stay at Christa’s.. the location and views were incredible - we ended up staying in and sitting at the balcony to enjoy undisturbed views of the sea and sunset almost everyday..the house was very cozy and made really well.. we would definitely stay here again whenever we’re in cape town next

Thesen Island Luxury Penthouse
It is our second time staying here and we most definitely come back again. Centrally located with the most beautiful views over the lagoon. Surrounded by restaurants and shops but apartment is private and quiet at night. Kitchen is well equipped with all necessary to cook any meal. Extras like purified water and cookies. Open plan lounge and dining area. Netflix and You Tube available. Lovely bedroom with lots of cupboards. Bathroom with shower and bath. We can recommend this accommodation if you love nature and also like to be centrally located.

Beachfront 201 Witsand
Gerhard was an amazing host. Gave us a tour of the apartment block as well as the apartment on arrival. One of the best, most modern and elegant apartments we have stayed in. It's always great when a host stresses the small stuff for example milk & water in the fridge, bean coffee machine with supplies, aircon. Beautiful view to top it off! Can highly recommend if you are looking for a luxurious home away from home. Thanks for a great stay!

217 On The Beach, Cape Town
This house is special because it has one of my favorite memories I’ve made yet! Also-The host’s amenities are very useful and the decor is lovely!

Upmarket Sea Point Sunny & Central
We had a fantastic stay at Lisa’s home which is very hospitable and very close to the coffee shops and restaurants. Lisa is responsive and very friendly - she was also very flexible with a special request we asked of her. This is a recommended stay and host and would love to stay again!!

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!

Ocean Breakaway-Back up power, 2 Adults & 3 Kids
Great place. Absolutely loved it. Fantastically equipped - kitchen, bedrooms, bathrooms. Balcony amazing as it connects the bedrooms. Great host. Only comment is if you travelling with 70+ kg of luggage it's a lot of stairs to lug all suitcases. Having said that it is worthwhile. Thank you 🧚

We had a lovely stay at Imraan's! The house and the view were so stunning and that made one almost not want to leave the house at all. We also got great recommendations and communication was also very easy. Thank you!

71 Yellowwood, Zimbali Coastal Resort
What a Truly 5 Star experience than my wife, daughter and I had at Kerry's place. The house is truly 5 Start yet the pricing is actually very reasonable for the value One receives. Kerry is proactive in her communication, very responsive to the guests requests and is very flexible. The house is always spotless due to the very helpful and diligent cleaning team. Definitely going back there soon!

Chic Boutique-Hotel Feel at a Seafront Pad, Clifton
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!

Plettenberg Bay beach house
Right on the ocean, beautiful views and direct access to the beach. A great location and a very well kitted out house. We’ll definitely be back!

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!

Bronwyn was a brilliant host. I would highly recommend.

Lagoon View Apartment
A huge thank you to Peter and Chery! From the moment I arrived, I felt completely at home. The apartment is beautiful and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The highlight for me was the stunning view from the balcony — both in the morning and at sunset, it was absolutely breathtaking. The place is spotless, fully equipped, and thoughtfully maintained. Nothing was missing in the kitchen or bathroom. I truly enjoyed every moment, and if I come back, I’d love to stay here again without a doubt!

Sea Point Beach Front Gorgeous Apartment
Fantastic views. Comfortable bedrooms and great ablutions. Close to many restaurants and for sports mad world class promenade to run awesome swimming pool to train and great cycling routes. Happy space for the fat triathletes and people who love sea sunsets

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.

Sweeping Ocean Views, Large Deluxe Condo
I couldn’t have asked for a better location, it was conveniently close to safe walking areas, shops, a beautiful park & restaurants yet was in a relatively quiet road. The apartment is beautifully appointed with absolutely everything you need, especially in the kitchen. It’s light & airy with stunning views. You feel secure & totally at ease there. Very obliging staff, in all, everything to recommend it.

Prime Location right by the beach and much more!!!
A great little place to stay, with everything we needed in excellent condition. Fresh and airy with lots of open ventilation, a little balcony and good space inside too. Our host was lovely and checking in was easy. Thanks Yvonne.

Backup-Powered Camps Bay Beach Condo
I’d book this again in a heart beat

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.
