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!

Leisure Bay
When we arrived, we went to the wrong place and Graham came to collect us - he even helped and carried some of the bags. The apartment is stunning. Overlooking the sea - what a view! I can't wait to go back because I was not disappointed. By the way - the security lady was so helpful.. Graham is a gem as he kept on checking how we were doing..

Barley Beach Luxury Penthouse - Camps Bay
Perfect location and beautiful house, pictures don’t do it justice. Easy check in and host was very accommodating.

Beachscape Waves, Views & Wi-Fi -Nordhoek's best
This place was a wonderful getaway! Incredible views over the ocean and the most charming cabin to stay in. The check in was a little challenging in the dark, but Utas instructions and pictures helped us find our way. Would love to stay here again in the future!

Cottage by the Sea, Solar System, King Bed, Safe
We had a wonderful week at Saul’s cottage in Sea Point. So much thought has been put into all the little like a nutri bullet, coffee machine and air fryer in the kitchen and deck chairs, beach towels, cooler box, games, beach umbrella for the beach, to name a few! The cottage is in easy walking distance to amazing restaurants and grocery stores and also very easy to get to surrounding places of interest like the V and A and Camps Bay. We didn’t have a chance to meet Saul but Bella and Tigger checked in on us regularly and we enjoyed our cuddle sessions with them!

3 Bed Beachfront Paradise!
Wow, this place. We loved everything from the communication with Colin to the entire place and view. Colin is such a good host. Kept checking on us. The place is spotless. Will definitely stay there again .

Kalliste an exclusive retreat (Solar Power)
Will definitely visit again! This cottage is the perfect coastal escape, surrounded by breathing taking flora and landscapes. The ocean view is spectacular! We felt right at home here and out hosts were just wonderful.

Sea Point at its best | gym, deli, bath, parking
Perfect spot in the heart of Seapoint. Walking distance to lots of cafes and restaurants and the awesome waterfront walk. The apartment was clean and well thought out. It had everything I needed. Plus as a female travelling alone I felt very safe in the space and the building. Highly recommend.

Bliss on the Bay - Beach Road Condo Surf Spot
We loved our stay here! The ocean views were amazing and a perfect spot outside of Cape Town but not too far. Easy to drive to neighboring towns.

Newly refurbed 2-bed penthouse
We had an absolutely unforgettable stay at this incredible Airbnb. From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. The space was spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we could possibly need – from local snacks to fresh linens. The location was ideal – quiet and peaceful yet just a short walk from amazing restaurants, shops, and attractions. We especially loved watching the sunset each evening over the ocean. Our host was communicative, welcoming, and genuinely invested in making sure we had a wonderful experience. Every little detail – from the ambient lighting to the cozy bedding – showed how much care and love went into the home.

Commuters Haven (with solar)
Absolutely loved our stay! Will without a doubt be back again , honestly a wonderful peaceful spot . Host went as far as pushing the car out the drive way in order to not wake us up in the morning! Blew our minds 👌 will 100% be back.

The Lobster Pot - Simons Town Holiday Cottage
Rustic beach house. Not much to the accommodation, simple and comfortable. exceptional location. Loved our stay. Feels like you’re in a David Attenborough documentary. Would definitely return

Ocean Loft self catering directly on the beach
Ocean loft is fantastic, the location is right on the beach, you will get sunshine all day, it’s massive and clean, you will get whatever you want. I bring my dogs for long weekend, me and my dogs all enjoyed the place, garden is big enough for them to play as well, you can easily walk them at the beach. I really love this place and highly recommend dog lovers come and stay.

Cape Town city apartment-beautiful mountain views.
Had a great stay andy host was absolutely amazing. Beautiful place great for 1 person and walking distance from the V&A

Ocean Sky Retreat Villa, Misty Cliffs
The pictures are beautiful, but you really have to be there to appreciate it. The views are breathtaking, and the sunsets are absolutely majestic. The house is perfectly designed — whether you want to chill out on your own or enjoy the middle-floor entertainment area for a dinner, a braai, and sundowners on the deck. It has everything you could need — inverters for power, balconies on every level, and even a beautiful little private trail in the backyard if you’re keen for a stroll. I just wish we could have stayed longer! Also, Tim is a fantastic host — incredibly helpful and welcoming.

Cairnside Studio Apartment
Great view! Very quiet neighbourhood with great restaurants nearby. Best surprise was an "extra length" bed, for all the tall people.

Sea views & Sunsets Haven-Clifton at its best!
This villa made our trip more enjoyable, everything was wonderful, the owner Mr wim was very helpful and also the maid Ms Julie was wonderful in everything. I highly recommend this villa for anyone. I can’t wait to stay there again.

Stunning ocean view house with indoor pool
Nice place in a very peaceful neighborhood.

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!

Scenic Amalfi Apartment in Prime Location
An absolutely marvelous stay at Stephanie’s apartment listing. Easy checking in process, & had great help from her assistant Calvin. He gave an amazing tour of the rental property, and made sure we were well taken care of!! From top to bottom everything was clean and organized. Every detail about the listing was spot on as well, beautiful panoramic views to see both the city and ocean. Location is perfect, you’re close to almost all activities and key points of interest. Highly recommendable 5 stars in my book!!

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

3 Bed Penthouse / Infinity Pool / No Loadshedding
Great place, well worth the money would highly recommend.

Oceanscape Beachfront Penthouse
Absolutely loved our stay! Every room in this place offers a view, but the living room view is truly unbeatable—you can see Table Mountain, Lion's Head, Robben Island, and the ocean all at once. The top-floor room shares the same stunning panorama. Staying here made me want to move to Cape Town! The neighborhood is both secure and peaceful, exactly as it appears on the website. The home itself is even more beautiful in person. I would 100% recommend this place to anyone visiting Cape Town. An unforgettable experience!

Mountain View Penthouse
We stayed for almost 2 weeks and felt right at home. Wish we could have stayed longer. We were close to family and felt safe and secure. The views were breathtaking and changed all the time. It was quiet and we felt like we were living in a tree house. Thank you for hosting us.
