Cheerful 4 bedroom home with pool.
What a wonderful place Hanno & Nico have! The house has all comforts and sparkling clean! The pool is beautiful with lovely water. Furthermore, the hosts are incredibly friendly, respond quickly to messages and have all kinds of fun tips for restaurants and the surrounding area! Highly recommended!

Modern Contemporary Zen Tree House Sparkling Pool
What a wonderful time we had in Alex’s beautiful Higgovale House with its special atmosphere. A home from home we felt immediately at ease. The tropical gardens give the feeling of being in the midst of the jungle - despite being only minutes from the lively Kloof Street with its many restaurants and coffee shops (wine bar/coffee shop/deli Tamboerswinkel deserves a special mention). We felt very safe at night and enjoyed being able to access Cape Town‘s sights quickly. A highlight was our hike to Lions Head - again only a stone throw away from the house. Alex’s great communication throughout our stay was not surprising, given his friendly welcome and advice and whilst we didn’t stay long enough to get to know her, housekeeper Barbara also seemed very friendly and attentive. We will be back!

Spacious Home - Mountain Views,Pool,Firepit & BBQ
Superb place with a genuine ‘home’ feel to it. Lots of communal space inside and out and a gorgeous garden to enjoy. Tracy is a super host - responsive and shared loads of advice what to do locally. Hout Bay is a 10 min drive.

Large SUMMER FAMILY house with pool and lapa
Elzanne‘s place was perfect for our family of three visiting Cape Town for 5 nights. Our 2 year old enjoyed playing with all the toys available, plus the trampoline and swing set outside. We enjoyed the bbq grill and eating dinner outside most nights with a view of the sunset and pool. The property is very quiet and beds very comfortable. There‘s a huge fridge and freezer and everything you need to cook meals. The house is also beautifully designed so it was a very pleasant stay for us!
Rooftop Pool | Views | 24h power
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Denis’s in De Waterkant! The apartment was stylish, spotless, and perfectly located in a charming and vibrant neighborhood. Denis was an exceptional host—friendly and responsive. The space was comfortable, well-equipped, and felt like a home away from home. We truly enjoyed every moment of our stay and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Cape Town. Thank you, Denis, for a great experience!

Greenpoint Coastal Cottage
We enjoyed our 4 nights here. Plenty of room for the 5 of us. Kitchen had all the essentials, bathrooms were clean, beds were comfortable too. The security gate and bars on the windows made us feel very safe. Leigh was very responsive to some requests we had and a pleasure to chat with. The upstairs bedroom with en-suite is the only room that has air conditioning, and it was quite warm when we visited. So the 2 bedrooms on the main floor were warm, even with a fan running all night. Leigh did buy an evaporative air cooler to try to cool down the main floor bedrooms, but unfortunately it didn’t help. But it was so nice of her to go out of her way to try to make us more comfortable. Fortunately the weather cooled a little bit after a couple of days, which made sleeping easier. Also, the upstairs bedroom has very sloped ceilings, which makes it difficult to stand up in some areas and easy to bump your head (which happened frequently). But overall we really enjoyed our 4 nights.

Marina Beach House
Great place! Loved the pedal boat option. Perhaps not so ideal if you have toddlers because the staircase does not have rails. Minor issue really and other than that we had a good stay.

Family home sleeps 8 in central Green Point
Lianne is a very thoughtful and organised host who is willing to make a plan to help to meat her guests needs. The house is lovely furnished and very good maintained and ideally positioned to walk to the water front, restaurants or other points of interests. Definitely recommendable.

Historical Farmhouse In Cape Town
Gorgeously decorated and styled place . Really at level of artistic and interior design magazine level and yet cosy home. Very sweet and warm home feeling place with lots of green in central location.

Luxury Open Plan Family Home |8 Sleeper|4 Bedroom
This house will not disappoint! I cannot say enough about how much we enjoyed our stay. The home is spacious, sparkling, an organizer's and entertainer's dream, comfortable yet with high-end finishings. You can expect to find that this home will easily match your expectations based on the photos. We are Canadian South Africans who lived in Cape Town 20 years ago. We wanted a space to bring family together. Taryn's home provided that and more! Even though it wasn't quite warm enough to enjoy the pool, it was well maintained. We certainly enjoyed the outdoor space by the pool, sipping our morning cappuccinos. We had so much fun playing table tennis, enjoying a braai and chatting in the spacious living room. The home is centrally located for seeing all the sights but neighbourhood dogs barking sometimes disturbed the sleep for light-sleepers. Even though all bedrooms are upstairs, we appreciated having a full bathroom on the main level for the less mobile family members in our group.

Wessels House - Central Calm Oasis - garden & pool
The house is in a super convenient location and presents really well. An ensuite for each bedroom makes it the perfect executive stay or family holiday. Easily accommodated our party of four and we look forward to returning again soon. Thanks Chris for a great stay.

„Out of Africa“bordering Nature Reserve with view!
We’ve had an amazing stay at Vanessa’s home. She was a warm and welcoming host who made sure everything was catered for, including toys, a tipi tent, bath time equipment, a baby pool and cot for our baby. The house is beautiful, right next to the dunes, so we enjoyed a fews walks to Sandy bay and Llandudno beach.

Salty Breeze Boutique Escape: Sunny Garden Cottage
This was our first visit to South Africa and Birgit and Eugene made it extremely easy for us particularly during our first few days when we were pretty clueless. But not just that - they continued with welcome and helpful suggestions throughout our time here. The well equipped apartment itself is spotlessly clean set in a really nice garden with a swimming pool and sun loungers. It’s an easy ten minute walk to the seafront where there are a selection of good restaurants offering menus to suit everyone’s taste. The area itself feels very safe and we had no problem walking back at night in the dark. All in all I have no hesitation in recommending Birgit’s apartments.

Full Power Backup 6-Bedroom House with Heated Pool
We loved our stay! Ken runs a tight ship to ensure his guests have the best experience in Cape Town. The house was perfect for our group of five, offering plenty of space, a well-maintained heated pool, and a fantastic outdoor area with a braai and large dining table - ideal for group dinners. Everyone had their own room with essentials like a private bathroom, refrigerator and a safe, while the shared spaces were spacious and welcoming. The place was spotless on arrival, with regular cleaning and fresh linens making it feel like a hotel - only better, thanks to Ken’s personal touch. Location? Perfect. Secure area close to Kite Beach, surf spots, and great restaurants - right in the action but just far enough for peace and quiet. Ken was always available and made sure everything ran smoothly. Highly recommend!

Hout Bay Restio - Near sea, mountains & vineyards
Paddy and Chris are exceptional host, they are very friendly and accommodating. The house is very well kept and perfectly located. It is in a very secure area in Hout Bay. It’s close to local amenities. I would definitely recommend this place and will also book this accommodation next time I am in Cape Town. The house feels like home away from home.

Chez Nthabi
Nthabi's place was everything we had hoped for but never knew we would be able to get - a quiet, peaceful, spacious, beautiful and well-provisioned family accommodation at a good price. Nthabi even welcomed us with a bottle of wine. wow! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will certainly return, as we plan to come visit our son at UCT from time to time. hope to stay there whenever we are in CT. Thanks for your amazing hospitality.

Modern House Set Within Beautiful Gardens
Tim’s house in Hout Bay is absolutely beautiful. We loved every minute of our stay and Tim was the perfect host - responsive, helpful and no request was too much. We will always have such wonderful memories as Tim was happy for our son to have a very small private wedding ceremony in the garden. It was the most beautiful setting and we will never forget that day. Anyone staying in Tim’s house can’t fail to enjoy it. Very special!

Welcome to Maison
The place is incredible value for money, with comfortably sized rooms, a great little yard for kids to play in. We will definitely be back again.

Boutique Style Villa
An exceptional experience, thanks to the incredibly welcoming hosts who went above and beyond to ensure our stay was memorable. The property, a stunning family house, boasted a fantastic pool area that became a centerpiece of relaxation and fun. Additionally, the inclusion of a garage added a layer of convenience and security for our vehicle, making our entire visit not just enjoyable but also hassle-free. This stay was truly amazing, combining comfort, style, and excellent hospitality. Would stay again.
