Cabin in Hilton

4.93 out of 5 average rating, 14 reviews

Cosy cabin with views, aircon and inverter

This property is central, yet out of the hustle and bustle, with a backup inverter and a small pool to cool off in on those hot days. The property is fenced, with loads of space to sit outside and enjoy the views. Hilton is a lovely, upmarket and peaceful town to live in, but I have installed burglar guards and safety doors, with AET armed response for peace of mind. Please note there are stairs to the balcony that lead to the front door. Dog owners please read additional rules.

Flamingo View

Marleen's home is situated in a lovely residential neighbourhood right by the highlights of Kommetjie and Noordhoek. We immediately felt at home and loved the souvenirs from previous travels that dotted the room. We didn't get to meet Marleen, but she was very responsive and flexible to our needs. We hope to in future because based on the guidebook and little touches (the wifi name hahaha) she sounds hilarious. Would happily stay again.

1 Bedroom House with garden

5 out of 5 average rating, 10 reviews3 weeks ago

I use Airbnb A LOT. I book 3 or 4 places a month & I must say, this is definitely top 5 for me! We felt right at home from the moment we checked in! Jay was a ray of sunshine. Her lovely energy makes you feel like you are meeting an old friend. She took the time to read my profile & seeing that I love plants, she gave me permission to play in her garden the whole week. This was the highlight of my stay. These 2 wholesome beings are such a lovely couple that goes above & beyond to make their guests feel welcome & taken care of! Their caretaker Mr Darlington was friendly, helpful & there whenever l needed his assistance! This home is very comfortable, safe, clean & had everything we needed. It looks even better than the pictures! The outdoor garden is so cosy. You can braai or just chill & enjoy a quiet evening! check out was ofcoz sad, l wish l could’ve stayed longer. Our whole stay was exactly what my little family needed. Would definitely recommend & we plan on staying here again!

Once upon a Tide 2

4.94 out of 5 average rating, 17 reviews3 weeks ago

Waking up to a sea view was a treat, but the real surprise was discovering a cupboard full of old board games and puzzles I remembered from my childhood. We had such fun playing together as a family. Long beach walks, friendly chats with locals — it all added to the charm. It’s not fancy, but it’s full of heart. A magical spot by the sea, perfect for making memories with the kids.

Hermitage Huisies: Guinea Fowl Cottage

4.96 out of 5 average rating, 26 reviews5 months ago

What a gem! Perfect location offering the best of both worlds - the serenity of a countryside setting and natural surroundings, yet a 5 minute drive into town for restaurants, shopping and sightseeing. With breathtaking views of the mountains and farm (complete with horses, sheep, donkeys and more) from your patio, ample birdsong, a spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated, well-equipped, cozy cottage with an incredibly comfortable bed and enormous shower - one couldn't ask for more! Nadia is a kind, thoughtful and attentive host...I cannot wait to stay here again :)

We had a great weekend. Very comfortable home from home getaway. Well equipped and not cluttered! Beautiful, quiet location where you can relax and enjoy listening to the night sounds. Close to all amenities and restaurants in town. Our weekend was the epitomey of perfect South African weather making our duvets too warm. A light duvet for summer would be a good idea. Definitely going back !

Rina is so friendly and accommodating. I messaged her about my daughter’s engagement and she offered to get champagne and a cheese board to surprise them. What a nice touch. Plus she had flowers and chocolates as a surprise from her. Such a beautiful view and loved having Nadine the horse come visit us. Thank you for sharing your cottage.
