The Lookout
Highly Recommended! We had an great stay at this beautiful home nestled along the scenic coastline of St. James. The views of the ocean were absolutely breathtaking, especially at sunrise, and being just a short walk from some tidal pools and Muizenberg Beach was a huge bonus. The host was exceptionally welcoming and attentive, offering great recommendations for restaurants, things to do, and hidden gems in the area. We would love to go back!

Sunset at Granula
Mark and Alisa were amazing! They went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. We broke down a few minutes away and Mark was quick to aid us by fetching my family and luggage while I waited for the tow truck. I have to give a huge shout for this act of kindness. Thank you once again. We enjoyed our stay immensely and will be back God willing.

Beach, Mountain & Pool side home - no loadshedding
Our stay was absolutely lovely! The house offers a beautiful view of Hout bay Harbour and Beach. You can easily and safely walk down the street to the beach, to the main road. We stayed as a family with a 2 year old child and had a wonderful stay. The equipment in the house was sufficient. The location is quite windy but that is Cape Town and Hout bay. Carrie was a great host and offered all the help You need. Thanks again!

Holiday Home
We had a fantastic longer-term stay at this Airbnb. The location was truly excellent, providing easy access to everything we needed. One of the highlights was undoubtedly the incredible view of Table Mountain – the sunsets were absolutely breathtaking and a real treat to witness daily. Despite some initial travel delays, the host was incredibly accommodating and allowed us a slightly later check-out, which we greatly appreciated. Communication throughout our stay was seamless, thanks to Deon. He was always quick to respond to any questions or needs that arose, making our extended visit smooth and stress-free. We highly recommend this property for anyone looking for a comfortable and well-located base with stunning views!

Seventh Heaven Sea Point 2-Bed
Katie was a great host! Super accommodating and helpful! We had a great stay in their accommodation and would recommend them for sure. 10/10.

The Lobster Pot - Simons Town Holiday Cottage
Incredible views! Thank you Sue for sharing your little piece of paradise with us :) A cosy cottage with everything you need. We had such a fun + relaxing weekend - loved the peace + quiet, and exploring along the rocky shoreline... even saw an octopus! Can't wait to stay again.

Blouberg Luxury Beach House Steps from the Beach
The place was more beautiful than in the photos. We had a great time staying here. Will definitely book again when next I’m visiting

Ballygale 547 - Family Beach Cottage
We absolutely loved our stay at Sebastian’s seaside cottage! Falling asleep to the sound of the waves, waking up to mountain views, and being just a short walk from Scarborough’s restaurants and town centre made for a truly special experience. The house had everything we could have asked for—braai facilities, inviting outdoor seating areas, and a wonderfully equipped kitchen (coffee plungers included, which is a rare Airbnb bonus!). Even my partner, who’s usually indifferent to interiors, was charmed by the farmhouse-style kitchen. It was the perfect peaceful and restorative escape—close enough to Cape Town for an easy trip, yet it felt a world away. We’d happily return and highly recommend it to others.

Stunning Townhouse 100m walk from Beach
Beach at the front door ! The place was a wonderful end to our South Africa trip. Only winery meters Away from the beach, so you can go to the beach at any time! For those who attach great importance to safety: here you can be completely reassured! Sam was super fast and flexible with communication and it was a joy to be with her. The house is really incredibly convenient and has a washer, dryer and several bathrooms - really great! Thanks Sam for everything !

Beach Forest Hideaway
My family and I absolutely loved staying in TJ's pristine and quirky house. Everything was clean, comfortable and inviting. The beautiful beach is within walking distance and the greater Kommetjie area is worth exploring.

The Barefoot Beach Hut - Beachfront, Cape Town
A quaint little spot in a lovely location with super easy beach access. Although bed the bed can accomodate 2 persons, the space is more suited to a single traveller. Safe, with 24hr guarding at entrance. Enroute access to North Coast and easy access south towards V&A Watefront and main city. Very clean and well maintained.

Llandudno Walk to Beach Lock up and Go
My little family had a lovely time at Mandy's and Dean's place, exactly what we needed , we enjoyed the quick access to Llandudno beach after the long winter months in Norway and yet very quite neighborhood and very close to other nice beaches around like Camps Bay, Clifton, Seapoint and Hout Bay, we were also able to enjoy a nice summer braai . The beach was just one street below, just 5 minutes walk from the accommodation, the shops and restaurants are not far away, you have the options of going to Camps Bay or Sea Point, or Hout Bay shopping centre. Kirstenbosch Gardens is not far either for those who enjoy nature and summer concerts, which were also able to squeeze in.The Owner Craig was very welcoming , hospitable and accommodative. The scenic coastal drive to and from the accommodation everyday was breath taking as well. Thank you so much Mandy, Dean and Craig for making our summer vacation worth every penny. We look forward to coming back next time.

Villa by the sea
We had a fabulous week and a bit in Maureen's lovely Woodbridge Island home. The house is spacious yet homely and we were very comfortable and had everything we needed. The outdoor area is very pretty and secluded and we enjoyed sitting out there in the evenings. Maureen is a warm and friendly host and always happy to help with any queries. We hope to visit again in the future!

Mangata, panoramic terrace on the ocean &power.
Lisa was the most amazing host and her team was absolutely fantastic. Super responsive, always at hand to help. Thanks Vee for recommendations, help, check-ins and the responses to make sure that we had all we needed for a memorable experience. We had such a fantastic time in Cape Town and the property made it much more excellent. From the most fabulous views, with the property on the water, to the wonderful amenities, the property ticked all the boxes for luxury - 5 star hotel standard super clean (thanks to Irene, our excellent housekeeper), the gorgeous pool and outdoor area, where you can relax and enjoy the most amazing sunset. The property is nicely located, close to an array of fantastic restaurants, we were so spoilt for choice! Then the beautiful Camps Bay beach! Literally a 5 minute stroll from the property. Great stay, comfortable, safe and just breathtaking! Really wish I could give more stars because this gorgeous home is well worth it!!!
Beach House
It’s impossible to speak highly enough of this place and the service we received. Angie and Martha were an absolute pleasure throughout and made our stay a truly unforgettable one - even providing a bottle of champagne for our engagement which happened a few days prior to arriving! Such a personable and special touch. The property itself is in the perfect location on Camps Bay, is incredibly clean and the interior decor is amazing. Additionally, the outside area and views are something which is almost impossible to match. Would absolutely recommend and would love to return.

Stylish villa on ocean's edge, unique outdoor area
Idyllic spot. House is beautifully and fully equipped. Communication perfect. A beautiful home with a view to one of the most spectacular places on earth.

28 Break-Away, Castle Rock Cape Town Luxury Villa
Simone is a wonderful and thoughtful host. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at 28 Break Away - absolutely breathtaking views and peaceful. We definitely would recommend this place to all family and friends!
