Natures Green Resort and Spa - Cottage Classic
A gorgeous location on a nature reserve with amazing sunrises and sunsets and the occasional spotting of game like Baboons and Zebra. Spacious accommodation with plenty of room to relax inside or out. Though rather spartan, it provides ample space and a great stove/oven for self-catering. Very quiet and relaxing and a great place for contemplation. Would be excellent for a family or group. I felt quite safe and relaxed. I would definitely come again.

“Eagle Cottage @ Just-a-Breeze” Constantia Kloof
Beautiful apartment with great views. Spacious and comfortable. tastefully decorated. Will definitely be my choice for accommodation in Constantia Kloof. Thank you Louise for being so accommodating and helpful. You are a wonderful host and an amazing person...Megan and I are eternally greatly for your warm hospitality.

The Waterfront Thatched old Farm Cottage
Truly a lovely and peaceful cottage! It's got everything you need + a nice yard. I like how the place is close to the mall, the dam, restaurants, and Aerial Cableway. Pieter is a wonderful host and there when you need him; very nice and wants to share all he knows about the area. Will definitely book again soon. We had a lovely stay!

Jo's Eden
Comfortable and private space was exactly what we were after. Location was perfect for our family visit and Josephine ensured we had everything we needed for our stay. Will definitely stay again and Jo’s Eden has become a home away from home for us.

Comfy cottage for a small family in Big 5 Reserve.
We really enjoyed our weekend. It was so relaxing to chill in the hammock and watch all the birds and squirrels. Place was well equipped with no less than 3 places to braai. Great location in the quieter part of the reserve but still close enough to the shops and restaurants. Was a bit cold for us to use the pool but we'll be back!

This Airbnb stay was truly exceptional. The host was thoughtful, supportive, and quick to respond, making the entire process seamless. The property was serene, beautifully maintained, and perfect for relaxing, with every detail carefully curated. The host’s attentiveness and helpful local tips enhanced the experience. Highly recommend for a peaceful retreat!

Elm Tree Cottage
I would definitely recommend Elm Tree Cottage. The cottage is absolutely beautiful—tastefully decorated with so much attention to detail. Delicious coffee and even a welcoming drink—what a treat! The farm offers a serene and peaceful environment that's great for unwinding. Verity is the perfect hostess— thank you for a lovely stay.

Saxonwold Book Cottage
Glen and Paul are friendly, present, low key and responsive. Their cottage is peaceful, secure and restful. I loved the homey feel and the obvious attention to detail - there are little luxuries like amazing water pressure in the shower, a fan in the bedroom for hot mozzie nights, a coffee machine, and quality decor. I appreciated their generous & thoughtful kitchen supplies (which made self catering a breeze for a busy professional on a work trip). The location is also convenient - situated in a central, grand part of old Johannesburg. Thank you - I'll be back.

Serenity on Dias
Good central location in secure neighborhood. Spacious comfortable and uncluttered. Lauren was responsive.

Craighall Gardens, WiFi, Netflix, Boomed Area
Wonderful accommodation in a tranquil setting. The owners are hands-on and the staff truly wonderful. Highly recommended and not surprised that it is so highly rated by guests on Airbnb.

Mpho's place was a great find for our trip. The location was beautiful, peaceful and accommodated our getaway. Mpho is an amazing communicator and went extra mile in ensuring that our stay was enjoyable. I would definitely recommend it.

A lovely Chalet close enough to the river to hear water running. Very Happy!

Hogs Guesthouse Family Unit
The pictures don’t do this serene beauty justice! This was an awesome getaway for me and my family , I even saw a Rhino during my self drive. Worth it! Elliot made sure we were well taken off at all times

Cosy private cottage in Parktown West
Just my favorite airbnb in all of South Africa - and that's all thanks to Petro being an amazing host! The cottage is spotless and homey - has everything you could ever need for a stay. It's quiet and private but Petro is always available and just next door if you need anything. Third time staying here and won't be my last - so glad to have found a home away from home in Johannesburg!
