Spacious Family beach cottage - Plettenbergbay
We had a fantastic stay at this Airbnb! The home was spotless, well-situated, and incredibly peaceful—perfect for a family getaway. Every detail was thoughtfully considered, and the house was equipped with everything we could possibly need. The attention to detail truly made our stay even more enjoyable. It was also very convenient, making our trip seamless and stress-free. We would absolutely recommend this place and would love to return in the future!

Tranquil GEM - lush garden view + solar energy!
Great deal, did the job!

Comfortable, Spacious, Beach Home
Wow!!! what a beautiful spacious home! The house is so well set out and they literally have everything you need. Perfect for families or groups of friends. The swimming pool and jacuzzi are such a treat after a long hot day on the beach. The front patio and braai area is where we relaxed later in the evenings. Gillian was amazing from booking to checkout. This will definitely be saved as a favourite for next time we are in plett. Thank you for everything Gillian and Thobeka.

Battery Inverter, well-equipped home,24hr security
If you're looking for a place in Plett for a family holiday with young kids (ours are 9 & 6) then this is a superb house. Nice safe and peaceful complex, communal areas are clean, the pools are great, and the house has everything you need. BUT please note the 3rd outside bedroom is actually tiny. It's a double bed, right up against the wall. My parents (Granny and Granddad) also joined us and no way they could use that as a bedroom. They can't climb over each other to get out of bed! So they moved into the 2nd bedroom and our kids slept on mattresses on the floor for 10 nights. The outside room is perfect for 1 teenager/adult. The house is well equipped, and lots to do on rainy days. It definitely needs some TLC and in need of a modernization but overall a good family holiday house in Plett.

Villa Seaview, Knysna Heads, Luxury Villa
Very luxurious residence, charming view, stunning beach and restaurant and very close café. Highly recommended!

We stayed at Sue's in our way up the garden route and it was just what we needed! The hot tub was warm and ready when we arrived, the property fit our family of 4 perfectly and it really was a lovely quant little flat. The surroundings were amazing - so beautiful. Would happily come back!

Phillip Villa: Short/Monthly Stays - Beach & Pool
Large nice house with lots of space. Close to the water and restaurant and walking distance to cafe with delicious breakfast.

Leisure Isle Retreat, Knysna, South Africa
Maria made us feel right at home. The place is incredible, and the furniture is equally impressive. We mostly followed the recommendations they gave us. The house is situated in a very safe area, just a 5-minute walk from a restaurant and a coffee shop. The beach is just a 10-minute walk away. It’s the perfect place to stay with a baby. We used the barbecue and beach chairs. Knysna is an ideal break on the Garden Route. We would have stayed longer if we could have!

Garden Suite, beautifully appointed, self catering
The apartment was spotless and a great location to explore plett from. The bed was incredibly comfortable and had fantastic linens. We had a lovely time here and even walked to the beach to enjoy the lovely weather! Would definitely stay here again.

MASESCHA COUNTRY ESTATE-BIRDSONG HOUSE
We had a shot stay, we wish we could have stayed for more days.

Red Box Villa – Contemporary home near beach
Our stay at this beautiful property was absolutely wonderful! The accommodation was not only comfortable but also exceeded our expectations in terms of ambiance—it was truly breathtaking. Kim was an exceptional host; she welcomed us warmly and took the time to give us a full tour of the house, which made us feel right at home from the very beginning. We had a truly memorable experience and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful and beautiful getaway. Thank you, Kim, for your hospitality!

Bonsai House at 29 Plato Road, Plettenberg Bay
Spacious family home in a residential and quiet neigbourhood. We had a great stay and communication was easy.

Knysna Houseboat Myrtle
We loved everything, the house is equipped with everything you need, our stay coincided with my birthday, there is a restaurant on the waterfront where we were able to get oysters and champagne. At night the house offers a very beautiful view of the mountains and the coastline and of course the starry sky. Julia was very kind and it was a pleasure to talk to her. Definitely recommend for an unusual experience.

Leisure Isle Cottage
We really enjoyed our stay here, it was peaceful and quiet with gorgeous views. Tendai was very responsive to all queries and always available. It was clean, spacious, comfortable and well stocked with everything we needed for cooking and braaing. The lagoon is literally across the road, the kids loved exploring and finding items like rays, crabs, expired jellyfish etc. It was definitely a memory making holiday and would highly recommend this option.

We spent a lovely 12 days in Lesley's cottage. Lesley was a thoughtful, caring host who went out of her way to ensure we were comfortable and happy. The cottage was lovely and the surroundings peaceful. Would definitely stay again.

The River Treehouse
We had a wonderful time in our private log cabin. Everything was just as described and we felt right at home. We will definitely return.

Lagoon View Apartment
A huge thank you to Peter and Chery! From the moment I arrived, I felt completely at home. The apartment is beautiful and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The highlight for me was the stunning view from the balcony — both in the morning and at sunset, it was absolutely breathtaking. The place is spotless, fully equipped, and thoughtfully maintained. Nothing was missing in the kitchen or bathroom. I truly enjoyed every moment, and if I come back, I’d love to stay here again without a doubt!

Lovely flat that’s much bigger than expected so perfect for families. We stayed with our 7 month old and a cot and high chair were provided which was super helpful!

C&M Knysna Luxury Self Catering Home
We spent 4 nights as a family of 4. The property is exquisite and has all the luxury amenities. The views are breathtaking! The house is massive but feels cosy and homely. The hosts are friendly, helpful and accommodating. I’ve now found my new favourite place to stay in Knysna!

Centrally located
Excellent Airbnb and Gemma was a very thoughtful host! Would definitely recommend this place to everyone!!

Stableford close to Robberg 5
Lovely experience in Plett. Thank you so much. So convenient and organised

Keeurbooms Beach House - near Plettenberg Bay
The House is fantastic, there is almost everything you need! The bedrooms as well as the kitchen are fantastic, the pool area is great however you need to check the age of your kids! Both fireplaces are perfect, inside and outside, both used during our stay! The gas grill was so perfect having bought steaks etc at Checkers before! Load shed happens but not so often and lights etc are still working! Only check the main remote control, this is the alarm do not use it as we did by accident! Enid was helpful for the first laundry and such a friendly lady! I cannot say anything bad about the house it is a perfect match for everyone and perfectly central for any activities around! Thanks Clifford for everything!
