Thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The apartment was immaculate and very comfortable. Beautiful views of the promenade and the park. Jayson and his team were helpful and responsive. We also found the security guards in the complex very friendly and helpful.

MehmoodRating, 5 stars4 days ago
Fantastic stay in Sea Point! The location was unbeatable- right across from the beach and promenade, close to Green Point, shops, and restaurants. The apartment was clean, modern, and well-equipped. Our host was friendly, responsive, and even went out of her way to arrange a cot for our baby, which we really appreciated. The only suggestion would be to add a microwave or air fryer for quick heating. Parking is easy in the evenings and mornings, but can be a bit tricky during peak times. Overall, a secure, peaceful, and thoroughly enjoyable stay. Highly recommended!

Stylish sea-facing apartment - underground parking

WRating, 5 stars2 months ago
This apartment is of a high standard with quality items throughout. The kitchen is well equipped, bedrooms have lots of cupboards and storage space to layout your clothes, the beds are very comfortable and of a high quality and the living/dining room is very comfortable. The terrace is comfortable and overlooks the ocean and promenade. The apartment is bright and offers a pleasant atmosphere to stay. The building Reception is active and secure. There are some homeless characters who hang out at the corner but they rarely bother guests walking down the street. This apartment is so well located, you are very close to everything you could need. This is a high-quality airbnb apartment, well maintained, very clean, with an exceptional host who is very attentive and reliable. I highly recommend this airbnb for a wonderful stay.

Waterfront, canals, CTICC: gorgeous 2-bedrm apart

GodsonRating, 5 stars2 days ago
A Wonderful Stay That Felt Like Home Most often when you book via Airbnb, the actual place can differ from what’s shown in the pictures. That wasn’t the case here. I came with my family, and we instantly felt at home—the kids absolutely loved it! The view from the apartment is stunning. You can clearly see Table Mountain, the port side, the canal, and the overall beautiful surroundings. If we get a chance to come back, we will definitely book this apartment again. Thank you for hosting us and making our stay so memorable!

Canal Quays 704 - One bedroom. Waterfront CT.

StarRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
We stayed here for more than a week. It was spacious and clean. It had a working kitchen and washer/dryer. The water pressure was strong, and the hot water for the shower worked well. It was located just a stone's throw away from the AC Marriot and a short walk to the V&A. The host was very easy to talk to. They met us in person when we arrived and saw us off when we left. This listing looks better in real life than in their pictures! Will book again when we come back! Thank you for such a wonderful time!

Luxury Beach Cottage

CarolRating, 5 stars3 months ago
Beautiful beach house, perfect location. Since we traveled from abroad it would have been helpful to have beach chairs and beach towels and a laundry line. But we had a wonderful time anyway. Thank you

Villa Vista Mar

SueRating, 5 stars1 week ago
A lovely place offering both homely and luxurious surroundings. The egg chairs on the balcony were a delight on sunny days to watch the world go by. Large smart tv in the lounge was good with huge comfy sofas to relax on. Each bedroom was ensuite which was perfect for our family needs. There is a supermarket 2 minutes walk away with everything you could need, restaurants plentiful also within walking distance. Also around the corner was a Thai massage place which we tried, authentic treatments were offered but not for the feint hearted, they really work your muscles loose! Overall a lovely property in a very safe area, perfectly placed to get to the attractions. We are UK visitors and will definitely go again since our family live nearby.

Glen Beach Penthouse A on Glen Beach in Camps Bay

KenRating, 5 stars7 months ago
Mary Louise's place is awesome. It is right on the beach, on a section that is quiet from the rest of Camp's Bay beach. Very nice. The view is great and the sound of the waves is very refreshing! The location is down the hill from the road. ML's instructions were very clear and there was no problem with them. Parking is on the street. As an american driving on the opposite side of the street, it took a little manuvering to get right. There are narrow stairs down the hillside, so this place would not be for the elderly or those that struggle with stairs. The beds were comfortable and the showers worked well. The kitchen is well stocked and amenities were good. There is a small grocery in Camp's Bay which is easy to find. It is on the far end of the main commercial area. About a 10 minute walk, located next to the Starbucks. We really liked the robes provided. The whole area was comfortable and relaxing and we had a great stay!

Luxury beach house an hour from Cape Town

CorliaRating, 5 stars3 months ago
Eva’s house is right on the rocks where you can even hear the local seals calling. The house is decorated to the highest standard by someone with a great love of art. Unfortunately, during our stay it was quite windy and we were not able to utilise the outside areas as much as we wanted, but I do think that this house would be very cosy and beautiful even in winter.

Luxury townhouse in vibrant De Waterkant

ElizabethRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Zebra house exceeded our expectations in every way. This lovely, old and characterful house is beautifully decorated with art pieces; the kitchen was cosy and the beds were wonderfully comfortable with high quality linens. The Bo Kaap neighbourhood is central for many activities and has some great cafes and restaurants. Helet greeted us on arrival and give us lots of information about the area and Cape Town generally. We had a fabulous stay and would love to return.

RoryRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Place was super clean, neighbour's were super quiet and everything in the flat worked. bath was super awesome and then falling asleep listening to the ocean was amazing. Even though it is right next to the main road, only really heard traffic in rush hour. Definitely will stay again when needed.

On the Rocks in Bantry Bay

AndrewRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We had a wonderful stay in Bantry Bay, the pictures on the site are an exact match. A great property, with all the amenities, and a great location. Ubers would arrive within 2mins, and were very cheap. £2.50 to Camps Bay and the V&A waterfront. Shaun was very responsive and helpful. We’d highly recommend this property. Cheers Andy & Gemma

A magical home on the Cape Town Waterfront Canals

NickRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Don't stay anywhere else in Cape Town! Wonderful, safe location within walking distance of so many great great restaurants and sites at the marina. We got very very cheap Bolt or Ubers everywhere else. It is a wonderful location. lovely outdoor area to relax with little pool to cool off, perfect and comfortable outdoor furniture. inside is spacious, clean, tastefully decorated with everything you need. Bed and bedding are very comfortable. Laurene was so helpful and communicative. Truly a great place to stay and so much better than a hotel room. We wouldn't come back to Cape Town without being able to stay here. Thank you.

Sweeping Ocean Views, Large Deluxe Condo

StephanieRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Our family had a lovely stay at Esta-Marita's gorgeous apartment, directly facing the ocean. The apartment is incredibly conveniently located for the weekend market, for events at the stadium, and for exploring the Waterfront area of Cape Town. The building staff were extremely responsive and helpful, letting us into the parking garage, explaining the kes and apartment amenities to us. The apartment was glorious -- panoramic views of both sunrise and sunset over the ocean!! The kitchen is vast, allowing us to cook meals as a family. There are also a lot of local restaurants and cafés in the neighborhood; but cooking at home is always nice for a family. Everything worked perfectly in the apartment. We are so grateful for such a lovely, gorgeous place to base our family in, as we explored Cape Town! THANK YOU so much, Esta-Marita!

Wake up to the waves. Modern, spacious, ocean view

VishaanRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Wonderful stay with a beautiful view and great location in terms of convenience to attractions. Security was very friendly, helpful and we had peace of mind regarding our safety during our stay. Communication was clear and instructions was easy to follow. Apartment was clean, spacious and we felt like we were home. Bed was comfortable, shower pressure was good. The cool ocean breeze and the fan provided was perfect so no issues with the lack of aircon. Will definitely book again!
