Cottage rentals with a hot tub

Meerendal Cottage-Affordable Luxury-Pool & Hot Tub
Exceptional Place with exceptional hosts. There is not one thing lacking with this stay, everthing you can think of is there. Such a spacious safe space to relax and enjoy your stay. We stayed with our kids (4 & 1 years old) Hazel and Christo made sure we had everything we needed and more. We will definitely recommend this accommodation to anyone and we will be back for another visit soon. Thank you Hazel and Christo for everything.

Romantic Garden Cottage
Highly recommend this spot to anyone wanting to get the full Franschhoek experience. Marlicia, and her husband are gracious hosts, more than accommodating when we needed a spot to park, their place is gorgeous, especially their backyard. The only downside about our stay is that we didn’t have enough time to enough the garden and the pool more. The location is also just a 6 min drive from the Franschhoek wine tram/bus station!

Orchard House - Winter Getaway @ Jackal River Farm
What a Gem of a place on the most beautiful apple farm. The cottage is perfectly positioned to access the most amazing mountain bike trails in the surrounding area. The rooms are spacious and modern, giving you the feeling of luxury, yet still on a farm enjoying the smells and feelings of not being in town. Dwayne and the team were extremely good at communications too and allowed for a seamless stay. Keep it up team, amazing work.

Stellenbosch Farm Cottage with Mountain Views
This is a lovely cottage with a peaceful atmosphere and fantastic mountain views. There were a couple of snags during our stay, but the hosts were quick to respond to any needs

The Garden Cottage 1
What a stunning airbnb. Everything is pristine, designed beautifully, and thoughtful. The garden is so relaxing to sit in and the outdoor patio by the braai is also lovely for nighttime dinners. My husband and I absolutely loved this place and plan to return in the future. It was so peaceful and lovely. The large bath tub and equipped kitchen were also highlights. It is located on the vineyards of a few wine farms and so it was great to walk to Stellenbosch Reserve for a tasting & dinner and also nice to walk along the vines. It felt very peaceful and relaxing.

La Vue River Cottage – A Country Retreat
Very good and central location, beautiful property with a great view of the surrounding mountains, cozy accommodation and helpful hosts. Definitely recommend.

SAGE cottage | Bloubergstrand | Cape Town
We absolutely loved our stay! Every second of it was incredible. The place felt so homey and cozy—it instantly made us feel comfortable and relaxed. The outdoor area was especially beautiful and added such a peaceful vibe to the whole experience. You can tell a lot of care has gone into making this space special. Highly recommend and would definitely come back!

South Hill Vineyards - Pumphouse Honeymoon Cottage
The cottage was fantastic, beautiful setting with great privacy. You have a whole dam to yourself, walk in the vineyards, relax in the wood fire hot tub under the stars. No complaints, but do not plan to cook a lot of meals, the kitchen is small and washup area, we lit a braai outside and that was perfect. Definitely would recommend and return.

The Lookout at Froggy Farm
The place look exactly like the photos. The surroundung are beautifull and peacefull, perfect for vacation.

1 Bedroom House with garden
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!

Bellingham Homestead - Garden Cottage
Beautiful tranquil location with friendly hosts. Will definitely want to stay here again.

78 Beach Road - Seafront luxury bliss
78 Beach Road is an absolutely beautiful place to stay. We stayed for 4 nights (2 adults and 1 teenager). It’s spacious, calm and has everything you need. We visited after a week in Cape Town so we’re ready to relax, with the ocean views and sound of the waves it was perfect. We enjoyed using the indoor Braai, the plunge pool in the garden and evening walks along the rock paths. There is so much to do in the area especially if you have a car including zip lines, shark/whale watching, hiking, beach days, penguins, botanical gardens, local wildlife and much more, it’s a beautiful landscape. The owner was very responsive when we had questions we all felt safe and comfortable. We would love to stay here again it was perfect.

Ruby Sun Farm Cottage
Lovely and peaceful with interior space even better than in the photographs. The unit had everything we needed and communication was clear an quick. Good location close to town but away from the crowds. As is clear from the pictures these unites are side-by-side, but they are still very private. (I guess you could have bad luck and a noisy neighbour.) Would definitely recommend.

Rooiels Dream Cottage
We spent 3 blissful days Ilah's place. An idyllic location with stunning views of the ocean and the mountain. The house was well maintained and very well equipped. Ilah was responsive and accommodating when we needed to change dates. We do not hesitate in recommending Ilah's place, if you are looking for peace, beauty, ease and a homey feeling.

Guava Cottage -Dunstone wine estate - private pool
Its absolutely beautiful! Wish we could've stayed for a week!

Mon Repos, free standing cottage, Paarl, Cape Town
We really enjoyed our stay! It had everything we needed and is very neat and tidy. It’s also ideally situated in the center of town, but yet very peaceful and quiet. We highly recommend Eckhard’s place.

Vineyard Family Cottage at San Gabriel Homestead
Beautiful place with a very warm welcome!

Rest Collection | Country Cottage
Very clean and modern peaceful accommodation. Check in and out was very easy. Having Springboks free roaming in the gardens is also a big plus if you love animals. definately recommended.

Peaceful and spacious Garden Cottage in Constantia
I loved my stay at Jane and Harry's place. It's spacious and beautiful and the private patio at the back a real bonus. The bed is comfy, ample cupboard space. I appreciated the walk-in shower. And the kitchen. It's close to shops and it's a beautiful area to go for a walk in. Jane and Harry were attentive hosts and I'm looking forward to staying there again.

William's Cottage
Lovely little farm cottage with access to a beautiful swimming pool. Basic amenities but perfect for a couple on a budget and close to the town centre.

Beautifully renovated cottage in Upper Kenilworth
Highly recommend. Beautiful, airy and light cottage located in a safe area. Plus points - Able to go for walks/runs 🏃♀️ - Central (easy access to Highway to drive to the CBD/SeaPoint/ Hout bay etc) - 2min away from Cavendish - Near to a Africa Padel 🏓 Rob was super helpful and so accommodating.

Thirty three Strawberry Lane Cottage
We couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful stay at Jenny’s. The cottage is a little slice of heaven - beautifully furnished with meticulous attention to detail. We loved waking up to the sound of birds and the view of lush greenery as the morning sunlight streamed. Jenny was the perfect host and made us feel right at home. We already miss her highly addictive weekly cinnamon buns :-) Thank you so much Jenny for being so wonderful and the best holiday, we can’t wait to be back!

Bargain! Clean, cheap and charming
Wonderful hosts who were able to help me out on extremely short notice. The accommodations is beautiful and there's a bonus beautiful and friendly puppy
