The Lookout
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!

Ocean Retreat, Romansbaai Beach & Fynbos Estate
We had the most incredible stay and cannot recommend this place highly enough! From the moment we arrived, Rozanne made us feel completely at home — she’s a truly exceptional host: warm, thoughtful, and always available if we needed anything. The home itself is stunning, with stylish and beautifully curated interior décor that strikes the perfect balance between luxury and comfort. The indoor fireplace was a cozy highlight, and we spent unforgettable dinners at the indoor Braai (bbq) enjoying great food. And the view — absolutely to die for. Waking up to the sight of Springboks and Zebras roaming in the distance felt like something out of a dream. Despite its elegant design, the house was surprisingly child-friendly, making it an ideal getaway for our whole family. Every detail was considered. We’re already thinking of our return — next time, to catch the whales! Thank you again, Rozanne, for everything.

Rust en Vrede Stone Cottages
We had an incredible few nights at Michaels stone cabin, beautifully furnished, super cosy, amazing views, cold plunge pool, hot outdoor bathtubs - everything was perfect! Can highly recommend.

Sapphire Sunset. Panoramic Views. Solar backup
Fantastic stay that exceeded all our expectations! Incredible hosts. I will miss that view!!

Lover of the Sea - Thalassophile
This place is a dream! Your own private beach with all the modern furnishings you might need. Luxury kitchen equipment, beautiful decks and balcony, plenty of outdoor furniture and activities. We went to Paternoster for meals, but you will need to book in advance as restaurants fill quickly. An amazing getaway, we would go back in a heartbeat!

Windmill Cottage, Tankwa Karoo
Thank you for such a lovely spot, a little slice of serene quietness. House had everything we needed, well equipped and a well thought out layout, James was a welcoming host. We spent our time hiking, stargazing, bonding as a family and getting to know Mango the Mongoose. We loved every minute and will definitely be back!

Table Mountain Home with Ocean View
Our family of 6 stayed at Sally’s home for a family reunion- we had a fabulous time! The home is so clean and spacious. The kitchen was wonderful and Brenda is so kind and helpful. The views of the ocean and mountain are stunning! We hope to stay here again in the future!

the house at the beach, designer West Coast escape
A great family breakaway in a perfect location. Seeing dolphins from the house added to the spectacular views. Thank you!

Immerson-Luxury Villa with Ocean Vistas
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!

Beach house in stunning sea front setting
Our weekend getaway was meant to be an off the grid break from the world. This listing gave us exactly what we needed. It was private and offered beautiful walking routes. The kitchen was fully equipped, exactly what we needed to be able to prepare our meals. The lounge fireplace is the perfect distance from the couch which allowed for cozy evening reading time. The patio overlooks the ocean, perfect for afternoon lunch and wine. Communication regarding check-in was clear. Overall, I would be keen to stay here again.

Heuningkloof Eco Cottage Greyton
What a beautiful spot! The view is exquisite, it is very quiet and private. So peaceful. The pictures don’t do it justice. Unit is comfortable and we utilised the much needed indoor fireplace. The kitchen has pretty much all you need to make meals. The one bathroom only has a bath, so bear that in mind if you are sharing with others. A magic spot in an awesome location! Susanna was very responsive to requests. We had a wonderful time. Thanks Susanna!!

Bontebok House - Three Kuilen
Lovely place in the mountains. Great to spot animals on drives and walks you can do by your own. Nice playground at the office. Thanks for welcoming and hosting us.

Squirrels Garden House
What a wonderful property. It immediately felt like home. Both my wife and I were also remote working so the little office space was perfect. The kitchen was very well equipped and we enjoyed cooking there. The outside space was just beautiful and all conveniences were a short drive away. We didn't want to leave! It was also spotlessly clean. Sharon was amazing in answering all our questions promptly. We highly recommend this gorgeous hidden gem in Hout Bay.

The Unbound - Escape the Ordinary
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!

Misty Cliffs Work and Surf
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.

Private three-bedroom country house
This farm is at the end of a valley, there are no passing roads and visitors are encouraged not to drive the farm roads. Thanks to this, the quiet was striking; there was no noise pollution from either cars, farm vehicles or aircraft. The birds and animal sounds reign here. We heard zebra, blesbok, springbok and so many bird calls. At night, owls called. The accommodation is charming; loved the colour palette—greens, white, deep red, a warm sand—and the simplicity of the rooms and lovely art (not only prints). The stoep is the perfect place to drink morning coffee and watch the sun rise and the mountain range in front glow, and we had all our meals at the table there too. So beautiful. Best of all was the dam with crystal-clear water where we swam after our hikes. This is a real find!

Tranquil waterside retreat
We had a fantastic two-night stay at Simon’s place. The house was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. Simon was always responsive, available, and very helpful, which made the experience even better. I would definitely recommend staying here!

Hytte Riverview
Best airbnb experience of my life. World class location. A hidden gem. Warm and helpful host.

Stunning Westcliff Hermanus Home
Perfect getaway! The place was absolutely stunning, you could see the thoughtfulness that went into the place, the decor and even the small details such as swimming towels, blankets on the sofa, logs by the fire place, diffusers and scents around the house, etc. Our stay was short but blissful. Definitely would stay longer a next time to enjoy the wood fire hot tub some more and the BBQ area in the back. The place is close to many wonderful restaurants and activities yet when you get home it's completely private and peaceful. Mark was an extremely responsive host and very easy to communicate with. Thanks for a wonderful stay.

Villa Vista Mar
BEAUTIFUL AND LUXURIOUS! Our family was very impressed with this home. Very modern, beautifully decorated, and well equipped. We can’t wait to return. Love all the en-suite bathrooms, beds are comfortable, great space to accommodate larger travel groups. The ocean view from the upper deck was stunning. We almost didn’t want to explore around because we enjoyed the home so much! Walkable to many places, safe, secure, and Odette and Bella were very kind!

Kloof House, Betty's Bay
I am writing this review while we are still at the property. We have stayed in many AirBnB's, but never have we encountered a place as fascinating as Kloof House. Nestled into the trees, at the bottom of the mountains, is this haven of peace. Due to the way it is built we feel one with nature. The interior is thoughtfully dominated by wood and endless floor to ceiling glass, it is warm and intriguing. We constantly stop to gaze at the forest. It almost feels a bit like being part of Jurassic Park, just without the dinosaurs. Inside it is pure luxury, no expenses have been spared, top notch appliances and so generously stocked, incredibly beautiful and stylish furniture, insanely comfortable beds. The nature pool, large hot tub and braai area are a real treat. All of this coupled with the friendliness and immediate responsiveness of the hosts makes this getaway one we will never forget. Thank you so much Keri and Louise!!

Seaview & Sunset Haven
Amazing house in a very quiet area of Noordhoek. Everything is as described and even better. Lots of attention to details like qualitative beds, linen, toiletries and a super equipped kitchen. I can only recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing stay with the most amazing sunset views. Thank you! Anthony

Huckleberry House
Beautiful spot! Perfect for our family weekend for Mother's Day. Wonderful that the dogs could join too! Stunning, spacious bedrooms and beautifully decorated - very cosy and peaceful.

Churchaven, Thorn Tree Cottage
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!
