Waterfront vacation rentals in Cape Town

We had a fantastic time staying at Andrew's place! The apartment was beautifully, and the kitchen was fully stocked with everything I needed. I did encounter a few issues on arrival but they were resolved swiftly and the communication throughout was perfect. Andrew and Lauren were very accommodating. Thank you so much for an amazing stay! Your apartment was spotless and the location was perfect for exploring the city. I really appreciated your quick responses. You clearly put a lot of thought into making your guests feel welcome, and it showed. I'd highly recommend you to anyone looking for a fantastic Airbnb experience. We can't wait to come back.

Loved this stay! Highly recommended. It is greatly located, the hosts are very helpful and trying to be proactive to support your travel needs, friendly, and also the apartment is beautiful. You can see and hear the ocean from the apartment, and it is also in a good distance for both the city center and other touristic spots.

This home has absolutely stunning views. The sunrises from the space were unparalleled. The space is clean, comfortable, and has everything you need to enjoy your stay. Aissa, the host, was an absolute pleasure. She is extremely responsive and flexible. I had an incident where I left my phone in an Uber. Aissa assisted me for hours (well into the next morning) until my phone was recovered. She lives in the property next door which was convenient as she is able to attend to any issues you may have. The view from the bedroom is stunning. I am not a morning person but let me tell you- I intentionally woke up early every morning to catch that sunrise. Beautiful space and absolutely lovely host. Thank you Aissa for a beautiful stay.

Great hosts, very responsive. Slight issue with WiFi which they worked hard to fix. Would definitely book again.

The condo was just like the pictures. Spacious and well stocked. The location was good, easy walk to the waterfront and felt very safe. Glad we stayed here.

I really really enjoyed my stay. It was extremely peaceful and the views were really refreshing and beautiful. The hosts were extra gracious and responded very fast. The mall around was also convenient to get food, drinks and supplies. I would definitely book it over and over again. 1000/10 I promise you.

What an incredible place to stay. Security around this neighborhood is excellent. Perfect location - minutes walk to everything in the V&A Waterfront. The condo itself is also perfect. Huge master bedroom with king size bed and enormous en-suite bath. Second bedroom has two twin beds and a large hall bath. Kitchen has everything you need including a washer and dryer, and the open living room / dining room combo is awesome. The best feature of this place, by far, is the back patio. The condo is on the lowest level, so just above the canal, and there is a comfy seating area (chairs and couch) to have your coffee and watch the water. Also, Matthew (Jeremy's assistant) is fantastic. He met us outside on arrival, made sure we had cards and keys, and then gave us a tour of the condo and answered all questions. He was also available by text throughout our stay in case we needed anything. Really a fantastic place. We will not stay anywhere else while in Cape Town.

My partner and I stayed here for a few days whilst working remotely. The surrounding area was great for a pre-work walk and coffee, and there was plenty of restaurants and bars for post-work. The house was lovely, very clean and with good facilities. I would definitely stay here again.

Nicholas’s place was an absolute dream to stay at! The view and sound of the beach was breathtaking and exactly what my family and I needed. The place was clean and neat and beautifully decorated, the beds are really comfortable. We enjoyed our stay there and would do it again. Special shoutout to Pam and Talent, so accommodating and lovely. Pam is an absolute gem of a person♥️

It is a second time we stayed at this specific place and will definitely return! It is an overwhelmingly positive experience in many-many ways.

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!

Nice place in a very peaceful neighborhood.

the house is like an art gallery so artistic & neat it is .. everything you need you will find ready for you to use .. loved it 🥰

The second you step into the house you feel like home and back into your childhood. Fells like your grandparents house, in a more than positive way! The terrace is unbelievable, the views, the waves and the access to the beach! The bbq, the kitchen, you have everything you need and more! Francis is awesome and helps you with anything you might need! We loved everything!!!!

Such wonderful hosts. The house has everything you need for a short or extended stay. Jessica responds quickly and was very helpful with any queries. I'm definately staying there again.

We had truly wonderful stay, the house is absolutely beautiful and the views are amazing - we will definitely be back!!

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.

Shaun's place is perched on the cliff overlooking one of the most stunning sea views in Cape Town. The sound of the waves crashing on the rocks & the smell of the sea air is magical. The apartment is beautifully decorated with every amenity we could have wanted. My favourite spot was sitting on the open balcony, taking in the beautiful view. The welcome bottle of wine & chocolates was a treat. We didn't bother using the secure parking, as there was always easy street parking right outside the building. There's good security, with 2 layers of secure access. The pool & deck is so perfectly set to enjoy the views described earlier. The roof deck, with 360° mountain & sea views is accessed from stairs right outside Shaun's front door. There are amazing scenic walks in both directions, either towards Sea Point, or towards Clifton, Camps Bay etc. We highly recommend Shaun's place & we will definitely be back when next in Cape Town.

Una is an incredible host, helped us a lot and she's so nice and kind. Thank you Una

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great Experience! Fantastic apartment at Canal Quays—clean, modern, and very comfortable. The location is ideal, close to everything yet peaceful. The host was responsive and helpful throughout. Would gladly book again!

We really enjoyed our stay. Brett was very helpful and assisted with our stay extension, even though it was late at night. We felt safe with 24 hour security, and even though we didn't walk around the area, it felt as though it would be safe to do so. We highly recommend it and will go back anytime we're in Cape Town again.

Zama’s apartment is lovely. It was spotlessly clean on our arrival. We felt safe and made use of the secure parking. The kitchen is generally well equipped, but the pots and pans are not in usable condition. Others have mentioned the long walk to the waterfront. It’s about a 20-30 minute walk if you follow the pedestrian path along the canal. Continue with the canal path opposite the city lodge hotel all the way to the waterfront and it is quite a lovely walk that didn’t feel taxing for us. The canal walk is open between 6am and 8pm. It’s about a 7 minute drive to the furthest waterfront parking. It was a bit noisy. We stayed over a weekend. The restaurant downstairs played loud music from their outside speakers. There was also some traffic noise. We still slept well though and the bed was comfortable. All-in-all it is great accommodation, good value, and excellent location for exploring Cape Town with a car or uber.

Really enjoy staying in Glens Airbnbs around Strand. A super host indeed. See you again next time.

Beautiful house,Lesley was responsive...so much to do in Capetown.We enjoyed our stay..The bed was comfortable.
