House vacation rentals in Franschhoek

We had the most wonderful stay at The Lookout. A well equipped, beautiful space with amazing views. St James itself is also a lovely spot. We loved looking in the unique shops, having coffees, and feeling so free, we would definitely like go back. Imraan and his family were so friendly and welcoming. Just what we needed after a long stressful journey.

Great place! Loved the pedal boat option. Perhaps not so ideal if you have toddlers because the staircase does not have rails. Minor issue really and other than that we had a good stay.

First off, Belinda is a fantastic host—extremely responsive and clear in her instructions. In addition to Belinda’s great hosting, there’s a housekeeper and a gardener who are both incredibly kind and maintain the house in top form. The house itself is very spacious and even more impressive than the photos suggest. It features three large indoor kitchen areas and an outdoor Braai. If you love cooking, this place is a dream come true! The pool is wonderful, though it does occasionally collect pollen and leaves from the neighbors’ trees. The house can comfortably accommodate six adults, but we stayed with just two adults and a baby for most of our stay. It’s located in a very quiet neighborhood, just a five-minute drive from Stellenbosch. There’s plenty to do nearby, offering the perfect balance of being close to Stellenbosch’s lively city center while still enjoying the peace and quiet. Definitely a place we would love to come back to!

Our family had a fantastic 3-night stay at Yvette's place. The house is stylish and comfortable - perfect for a family getaway. The kitchen was very well stocked and organized. We loved all the board and yard games, and there's even a little mud kitchen in the backyard where our son happily mixed up "potions". The outdoor space really makes this property stand out. The back garden is a little oasis - just a lovely spot to sit with a morning coffee or a glass of wine in the evening. The parking garage was really handy and the property is in a quiet residential neighbourhood, but close to several great beaches and only a 20 minute drive from the Durbanville wine region. We also really appreciated the list of local restaurant recommendations the hosts shared. We would definitely stay here again.

Heel mooi verblijf. Veel ruimte en privacy. Supermarkt en wijn tram op loopafstand ca. 5 min. Ontbijten kan bij o.a. wijnhuizen als La Motte (aanrader), in de hoofdstraat bij Smitten of bij een van de bakkerijtjes op enkele minuten afstand. Zelf ontbijt maken is ook geen probleem. Restaurants iets verder maar beloopbaar of enkele minuten met de auto. Veilige omgeving op een bewaakt terrein. Locatie kan bijna niet beter voor deze prijs kwaliteit.

This is an AirBnB with a little something extra! Every detail is thought out and it really is a perfect place to unwind and spend some time away from the city. We kayaked, walked around the nature reserve, fished (badly), drank amazing coffee on their jetty and wandered around Muizenberg. There's even a hot tub :) The hosts, David and Maya, are super helpful with tons of recommendations, flexible and quick to respond. Also check out Truth Coffee Roasting, David's place, for a really unique experience. Thank you!

We had a great stay. Close enough to Worcester and restaurants to visit, far enough away to have peace. The hot tub was great fun. Splash pool was welcome as it was quite hot. Nice view from the stoep.

Extremely well-equipped space with great attention to detail - comfortable, spacious, and thoughtfully designed. We stayed and filmed here, and the owner was incredibly accommodating. We’ll definitely be back!

Wir waren fast 8 Wochen in der Villa Stellendal und haben uns wie zu Hause gefühlt: Tommy hat uns herzlichst begrüßt, uns eingewiesen und täglich nach unserem Wohlbefinden gefragt. Auch unsere gute Fee Miriam hat stets für frische Wäsche, Blumen und Sauberkeit in unserem schönen Heim gesorgt. Die Villa ist gemütlich, es ist alles vorhanden, die Küche ist gut ausgestattet, es gibt einen Smart TV mit Netflix und der Pool sorgt für regelmäßige Erfrischungen und ein Jacuzzi für Entspannung. Die Villa ist uneinsehbar und somit sehr privat. Die Lage ist zentral, aber dennoch ruhig. Für alle Wünsche und Fragen ist auch die Rezeption mit Anneke, Cindy und Hannah täglich besetzt und für alle Wünsche und Fragen offen und hilfsbereit. Auch wenn es kleine Defizite oder Reparaturen gab, stand Tommy täglich zur Verfügung und hat schnell und unkompliziert die Mängel behoben. Es fiel uns sehr schwer good bye zu sagen, aber wir werden alle lieben Menschen im Oktobee 2025 wieder sehen.

We had a great time at this place. There was plenty of space for our 3 families. We enjoyed the entertainment area. Great facilities too. Would book again.

Tanya was thee absolute best ,a perfect host ,very helpful aswell as her helper ,the place was easy to find and I must say the pictures don’t do it any justice it’s a beautiful place clean and the kitchen has everything we needed for our stay ,the pool kept the kids busy as it was so hot ,she even gave us an extra day 🌸I must say she was one of the kindest individuals that have ever hosted me ,I appreciate all she did for myself and my family ..

We had a great stay at the place. A beautiful view on the table Mountain, perfect with the breakfast, and when it's too hot the swimming pool help to cool off. Also got some good recommendation about where to eat and swim.

We enjoyed our stay. Beautiful view of the mountains from the garden. Was super easy to walk to start of Two Oceans race. Be careful when pulling in as drive is narrow. Overall great!

Can’t speak highly enough of our 4-night stay. Exceptional property, fully equipped with everything you’d need, wonderfully big outdoor garden with pool and loungers. 5 min walk to wine tram, 2 min walk to Franschhoek main road, yet extremely peaceful neighbourhood/st the house is located on, could hardly have picked a better location. Upstairs bedroom above kitchen/living area could certainly do with a fan, the only constructive feedback we have. The property manager/cleaners were extremely helpful throughout our stay and helped with flexible check-in/out which was greatly appreciated. Massive thanks for making our time in Franschhoek so special!

Elzanne‘s place was perfect for our family of three visiting Cape Town for 5 nights. Our 2 year old enjoyed playing with all the toys available, plus the trampoline and swing set outside. We enjoyed the bbq grill and eating dinner outside most nights with a view of the sunset and pool. The property is very quiet and beds very comfortable. There‘s a huge fridge and freezer and everything you need to cook meals. The house is also beautifully designed so it was a very pleasant stay for us!

Die Unterkunft war wunderschön. Sehr stylisch, individuell eingerichtet. Wir haben uns super wohl gefühlt. Perfekt für einer große Familie. Lulu ( die nette Hilfe) hat sogar jeden Tag sauber gemacht. Tolle Wohngegend, man kann zu Fuß zum Weingut Lanzerac laufen, aber auch in die Innenstadt. Wir würden gerne wiederkommen.

Staying here felt like having a second home! The place has everything you need for an unforgettable stay. It is exceptionally clean, beautifully maintained, and located in a truly breathtaking area. The complex is one of the most stunning and secure places in all of South Africa. Our host was beyond amazing—so kind, helpful, and always available whenever we needed anything. He made sure everything was perfect and went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The house itself is perfect for families, with comfortable beds and a fully equipped kitchen that has everything you could possibly need. Every little detail is thoughtfully taken care of. From the seamless check-in process to the lovely welcome basket waiting for us, every moment was a delight. The host continuously checked in to ensure we were having a great time. We truly cherished every minute of our stay and will definitely be coming back. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for such a wonderful experience!

Very clean, neat and tidy. Everything you would need and more is there. Anene is a fantastic host and always helpful. We had an absolute wonderful stay and would Definitely recommend anyone to stay there. Although we asked to take pets we ended up not taking our pets but you can take your pets with, there is also dog bowls provided. Lovely place and very peaceful 😊

This house will not disappoint! I cannot say enough about how much we enjoyed our stay. The home is spacious, sparkling, an organizer's and entertainer's dream, comfortable yet with high-end finishings. You can expect to find that this home will easily match your expectations based on the photos. We are Canadian South Africans who lived in Cape Town 20 years ago. We wanted a space to bring family together. Taryn's home provided that and more! Even though it wasn't quite warm enough to enjoy the pool, it was well maintained. We certainly enjoyed the outdoor space by the pool, sipping our morning cappuccinos. We had so much fun playing table tennis, enjoying a braai and chatting in the spacious living room. The home is centrally located for seeing all the sights but neighbourhood dogs barking sometimes disturbed the sleep for light-sleepers. Even though all bedrooms are upstairs, we appreciated having a full bathroom on the main level for the less mobile family members in our group.

The house is in a super convenient location and presents really well. An ensuite for each bedroom makes it the perfect executive stay or family holiday. Easily accommodated our party of four and we look forward to returning again soon. Thanks Chris for a great stay.

We had a wonderful time, thank you. Elana and the cleaning company were fantastic to take care of any small need..

This was our first visit to South Africa and Birgit and Eugene made it extremely easy for us particularly during our first few days when we were pretty clueless. But not just that - they continued with welcome and helpful suggestions throughout our time here. The well equipped apartment itself is spotlessly clean set in a really nice garden with a swimming pool and sun loungers. It’s an easy ten minute walk to the seafront where there are a selection of good restaurants offering menus to suit everyone’s taste. The area itself feels very safe and we had no problem walking back at night in the dark. All in all I have no hesitation in recommending Birgit’s apartments.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Denis’s in De Waterkant! The apartment was stylish, spotless, and perfectly located in a charming and vibrant neighborhood. Denis was an exceptional host—friendly and responsive. The space was comfortable, well-equipped, and felt like a home away from home. We truly enjoyed every moment of our stay and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Cape Town. Thank you, Denis, for a great experience!

nous avons passé un excellent séjour au Cap Town et la villa de Ken a su répondre parfaitement à nos attentes. Nous avons profité de la piscine chauffée et du barbecue quel bonheur. Ken a été pro actif et toujours à l'écoute. Nous sommes impatients de revenir.
