Pet-friendly places to stay in Eastern Cape

Amazing to find a place as peaceful and unspoilt as this. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay on this beautiful farm. Even though the weather did not play along, we were still able to enjoy the jacuzzi, go for a few short walks around the farm and just enjoy the view across the lake. The cottage itself is beautiful and has been set up with everything you need. Perfect place to disconnect and reset.

I went away with my mother as a birthday trip for her, needing somewhere serene and peaceful. Stephan and Anna’s place was exactly that. It was a step away from the chaos and we were able to so easily relax in their beautiful setting. The cottage was cosy, had all we needed and that fire place was incredible! Anna was so attentive, checking in on us, helping us with anything we needed that it felt like you were staying with someone you knew. We will definitely be back and have already told plenty of family and friends.

as always lovely to stay in the penthouse in Knysna

When you need to push pause on everyday life this is the perfect place to relax and be rejuvenated. The cabin is so well thought out and every detail is just right. Jaco and Dayle are so welcoming and are extremely kind. Dayle has a wellness centre and her massages were so therapeutic. Jaco is a chef and whipped up a feast of a dinner for us, taking note of our personal favourite food choices and then delivered the meal to our cabin. It doesn’t get any better than that! The breakfast basket of goodies was incredible. The best bread I have ever had, delivered warm straight out of the oven. My husband and I went for walks down country lanes and experienced the beauty of hogsback. We will visit again for sure. Thank you Dayle and Jaco.

Liesl is an incredible host! Her place is even more beautiful in person — spotless, stylish, and thoughtfully put together. But what really made our stay special was her warmth and hospitality. She went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and at home. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend staying here — you won’t be disappointed!

We spent three days with my son and daughter-in-law visiting us from the UK at Maynie's fantastic apartment in St Francis Bay. The apartment is on the top floor with the most breathtaking views of the sea on the one side and the small private harbour on the other side. The apartment and views are even better than the photos on the website. The apartment was very clean and well stocked with everything that we needed. Maynie is an excellent host and when my other son suprised us with a visit from London, she immediately made a plan to accommodate him. It made the few days very special for us as a family. Everything is of high standard and quality, we even found a bottle of very nice wine in the fridge, milk, rusks and fresh strawberries. The apartment is equipped with a washing machine, timble dryer and a dishwasher. Communication was excelllent. We will definitely be back for another stay. I can recommend having dinner at Chokka Block on the harbour.

The glass pyramid was a unique experience. The staff is very friendly and the food is very good. In detail, there are a few things that we liked less, the water in the hot tub outside was heated but disgusting. The bathtubs inside were all the better for it. It was all very clean. Overall, we didn't find the value for money to be quite optimal.

This was our favorit AirBnB during our trip in South Africa. We had an amazing time! Beautiful morings with a breathtaking view and cozy evenings in th hot tub. Ingrid was super friendly and flexible for our check-in as we did our trip more spontanously. Thank you ☺️

The house right on the beach is a real tresure. Everything was as published on the website. Christa gave us a lot of helpful information and was super fast in responding. We had the most wonderful time in the house. Met very warm and nice people on the beach. I can recommend the house to guests who love the sea, the calm and good friends to join it🫶.

A beautiful, peaceful place, surrounded by untouched Karoo. Alme and her husband were so warm and welcoming, they felt like family - bringing over some home-baked goods and facilitating my stargazing. Will stay here again!

Gorgeous house with many comfortable and spacious living areas both inside and out. Beautifully decorated so was a real treat to stay there and had everything we needed.

Beautiful little cabin in the middle of nowhere, extremely peaceful with amazing walks through the old river beds and mountains definitely will book again.

The location is ideal with the big windows looking out on the beach and ocean. There is a small path and gate leading directly into the beach. We had a braai and a campfire outside on the deck which was very nice with a full moon shining on the ocean. Communication was excellent and check-in very easy.

A brilliant quiet weekend spent here. The location is perfectly tranquil - walking out onto that deck with that incredible vista feels immediately like an escape. How awesome to have this so close to the city! Very comfortable with everything you need for self-catering. Thank you Tess! This is an easy recommend to anyone - I'll almost certainly be back!

First of all I would like to thank The humble gentlemen “Taps” for everything from the start…. "...What an amazing place! Every need is catered for. It's an absolute oasis. Thank you for the most amazingly comfortable stay..."

We’d stayed here last year and it was brilliant to be back. The home is beautiful, spacious and has the most incredible views. It is also very tastefully decorated! We had teenagers, adults and grandparents staying and the home had enough space and areas that everyone could be together or go off and do their own thing. The proximity to the beach and shops was perfect too. The housekeeper was also incredibly helpful. Thank you to our hosts and we cannot wait to return again next year!
