Family-friendly vacation rentals in Akasia

This is not a typical airbnb. Stephanie goes above and beyond and in the end is more of a friend than a "host." For me, this is a home away from home. You must love dogs if you are to enjoy staying here.

Steve's was just like being at home. Steve himself was very responsive, friendly, proactive and even gave us hints on places to go to. I would definitely recommend such a host.

Amazing place- would definitely go back

Easy check in, great location for business meetings, clean and spacious property… would book again

This was our first time in Johannesburg and Anita helped it to be very special. She was a great hostess. Anytime we needed anything she had no problem assisting us. She gave us information about sightseeing in the area, restaurants, great farmer's markets and much more. My sister was visiting from Rome, Italy and Anita speaks Italian, so that was a special surprise for my sister. Anita also has a basketball hoop, which my 10 year old granddaughter loved, she also gave her games and drawing supplies. My granddaughter had a great time. We highly recommend Anita's beautiful cottage and great hospitality, and would surely book it again.

Mandisa's place is very beautiful, well furnished and certainly great value for money. I will definitely stay there again.

Amazing stay , lovely place and ample space. Tinahe was helpful with all the questions and queries during our stay.

Stewart met us upon our arrival and went out of his way to make us feel right at home. We were left to enjoy the privacy and peacefulness of the beautiful quaint cottage and the animals that lived on the premises. It was absolutely perfect for what we needed for our 2 day stay in Johannesburg, with the location also perfect as everything we needed was within a 10 minute drive. We will definitely return!

Review for Mooiplaats: What a lovely, little farm getaway. Bea and her husband, Wim, are amazing hosts and great people. The BnB is fitted with all you need to enjoy a peaceful and lovely time. Surrounded by the sounds of the farm at night, the little farm house is private and perfect. They also have their own butchery with the best bacon ever! I would highly recommend this gem to anyone with an appreciation of farmstyle living. The surrounding area also has an amazing "Melkery". So between lovely cheeses and great meat, you are sorted. And for R75pp, lovely Bea might organise a tasty farmhouse breakfast... 5/5.

The pictures do not do it justice. What a beautiful home with stunning views of the dam. Multiple seating areas inside and outside. Electric blankets and air conditioning provided which really made our stay more comfortable. Spacious bedrooms with enough bathrooms. Would recommend getting more serving dishes and food storage containers especially because the house caters for a large number of guests. Otherwise , no complaints. Responsive host and caretaker. Highly recommend.

If you're looking for a quiet safe place in the middle of joburg look no further... great air bnb and will be back soon

I had an amazing stay, I will certainly be back, excellent hospitality, I’d recommend this host to any of my friends & family.

We absolutely loved our stay here! Riaan and Malia were so hospitable and always responsive when we reached out to them. They even greeted us when we first arrived and gave us fresh baked bread. The outdoor area is very nice and fun for children to play. The kitchen is well stocked with plenty of supplies to cook/bake. The house is very safe and secure and just as shown in the pictures. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone.

It's a very nice safe and peacful place. The owners are very kind and enthusiastic.

I stayed at Stoney Brooke for 3 months, all my needs where met, they are very accomodating, I loved staying there, the peace and quiet is very good for the soul. I will stay there again next year.

Great stay, beautiful garden and great hospitality. What a clean place in such a beautiful area. Definitely worth it!

Really loved the property, well advertised and accurate descriptive pictures and excellent service, with a charming friendly host, I would definitely recommend this property for anyone looking for a clean warm safe space to stay either short or long term.

We had an absolute blast! The place was clean, cozy, and exceeded our expectations in every way. The host was super responsive and welcoming, making us feel right at home. The amenities were top-notch, and the location was perfect for exploring the surrounding area. The neighborhood was quiet and safe. We'd highly recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and relaxing stay. The value for the price was excellent, and we felt like we got so much more than what we paid for. Thanks for providing such a wonderful experience! We can't wait to come back.

We had a fabulous stay. Merwelene was a fantastic host, very flexible with check-in, made sure we were taken care of and checked-in frequently to ensure we have everything we need, and we are comfortable. Stay was absolutely fabulous and we enjoyed every minute. Definitely recommend Merwelene's for a fabulous break-away.

This apartment was just what I needed. Quite safe everything was nearby like shops and restaurants. I was able to relax and rest. Will definitely book again in near future.

We had an absolutely wonderful time at this place, would recommend 100%

Our stay at Rose’s place was exceptional. Rose was extremely communicative and responsive. The pictures truly do not do it justice. The house is huge and perfect for a large group. Every room was extremely spacious and well appointed. The kitchen was fully stocked with the best crockery, cutlery and cookware including an entire set of Le Creuset. The place was spotless and beautifully furnished. The attention to detail was unbelievable including embroidered gowns for all guests with slippers. The cherry on top was the incredible assistance we received from the staff who live onsite who ensured the house was always spotless and attended to. In addition, they also set the table every morning and evening comparable to a boutique hotel. We will definitely be back.

An oasis in the city. The apartment was very comfortable, clean and with lovely characterful touches. We especially loved the beautiful gardens with magical paths, birds, eco pool and abundant greenery. Another highlight for us was the community dog park at the bottom of the property with lots of friendly dogs and more wildlife. Wendy, Maria and Jake were all super kind, helpful and friendly!

What a superhost ,Toy you are great .Will definitely come back .All expectations were met ,I asked for extra parking she made a plan and asked for a big favour in one of the rooms and she came through for us .The cleanliness of the house 10/10 .You are exceptional dear ,keep up the good work .
