Designers Cottage on Table Mountain
I had the most delightful stay! The family were all lovely, including Blue🐶. Mark gave me an excellent tour of the place. He, Cathy and Jarad have me such a warm welcome . The place was peaceful and felt just like home. I was very comfortable and slept well!! I’d been travelling for a while and this was the perfect spot to spent a week recouping and working remotely. I will definitely be back! Thank you all so much.✨

Luxury serviced cottage + heated pool Constantia
We absolutely loved our stay and definitely hope to go back next time we are in Cape Town. The home exceeded our expectations and the heated pool was the cherry on top. Best pool we have ever swam in, which we spent all day in. Appreciated the easy electronic kid friendly pool cover. The staff were incredibly kind and went the extra mile to make the stay very fun for our boys. Highly recommended!

Quiet Cape Town cottage: kitchen, wifi, solarpower
This cottage was exactly what I hoped for: a quiet space in a central location, with all the comforts of home, a dedicated workspace and reliable internet. Megan and Stewart were responsive and went the extra mile to make sure I was looked after, even ordering a baking tray when I requested one.

Cozy Beach Cottage with private garden
I had a really great time at Lindsey and Bjorn’s place. The cottage is cozy with a lovely back garden, view of the mountain and you can hear the waves crashing. The area is awesome with beautiful beaches to walk and swim at, and places to eat nearby. Bjorn and Lindsey were helpful hosts when I needed anything. Thank you very much, I hope to come again!

Relax, Unwind, Recharge in a Stunning, Secluded, Quiet Guesthouse in Bishops Court, Cape Town
We escaped the city for Rose Cottage early on in our holiday, I was in need of the quiet serenity of the suburbs and Anthea’s home met all my needs and expectations. A slice of heaven in leafy floral Bischopscourt - just off from the Botanicsl Gardens. The perfect peaceful home to get away from the hustle and bustle, gorgeous pool area - and we LOVED Jordy the little dog coming to see us on a morning. We felt totally at home. Thank you so much Anthea.

Beautiful Garden Cottage in Pinelands
Wow!! , what a nice place. Thank you sally and Grant, we loved your place. We will certainly come back next year. Great deal and i can safely recommend anyone visiting Capetown to try Sally's Place.

Private Garden Cottage
It was an amazing place, with an amazing view. The only issue was the strong winds of Cape Town. But you can not let that take away from the good time we had. Angela is a great host I would definitely return.

Sunbird Cottage - Somerset West

Risa's place looks exactly like the pictures. So beautiful & clean. She came to meet me at check in and communicated extremely well. The location was also perfect - so private & peaceful. Will definitely be returning!

Tokai Garden Cottage
We had a wonderful time at Laura and Markus' garden cottage! Already upon arrival we felt immediately welcome - the two are incredibly warm and open hosts without imposing themselves. Here you can see how much love and commitment is in this special place. The cottage itself is fantastically beautiful. Everything is sparkling clean, newly renovated and furnished with a lot of love for detail. The atmosphere is quiet, warm and very welcoming - just the place to unwind and feel completely comfortable. We particularly liked the lovingly designed garden, which makes it even more idyllic. Laura and Markus were responsive and super helpful at all times. You just feel like they're really happy to host their guests. We would have loved to stay longer - and will definitely be back!

Spectacular ocean views @ 38 on Penguin Studio
Amazing views of the mountains and sea. you can take easy walks from the apartment. The apartment was clean, spacious and the kitchen was well kitted out. Close to the village centre which has excellent restaurants. Brendon and Lucienne were extremely helpful and accomodating. We loved our stay and look forward to going back. You will not go wrong booking here!

Beautiful Constantia Cottage with Great Views
I had a wonderful stay in this beautiful and peaceful location! The space was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped, making it feel like a home away from home. I also really enjoyed the company of Troy the dog :-) Highly recommended for anyone visiting Cape Town!

Garden Cottage
This Airbnb feels like a home away from home, and whenever we visit Cape Town in the future, we would chose to stay here. Anne is a great host and was very responsive to our needs. I would not hesitate to recommend this Airbnb to anyone.

Honeyrock Cottages - Magnifica 1B
Beautiful place in a beautiful part of the country. Will be back.

Little Oak Garden Cottages, Cottage 1
Clean and very safe. Crisp cotton bedding and comfortable bed. It was great to be able to drive our car to the door which made it so easy to unpack our belongings. Great place to stay in such a beautiful spot. Thank you.

Separate Entrance Flatlet in Woodstock
Jason's place was perfect: clean, comfortable, and conveniently located with easy access to the CBD. The neighborhood is calm and safe. Jason is a friendly and responsive host who readily accommodated my late check-out request. I left the apartment as clean as I found it and would definitely stay again when in Cape Town.

Camps Bay chic home with great views near beach
We had a wonderful stay here. The house itself was spacious (even more so than the photos), clean and beautifully presented. The beds were comfy and with lovely linen, there was a well equipped kitchen, we loved the outside fire pit area and we really enjoyed the views. The location was great, just a few minutes' walk from the beach and restaurants, but just far enough away to be quiet and private. We would definitely recommend this Air BnB and hope to stay again.

Modern light charming cottage in Camps Bay
Beautiful studio apartment in Cape Town. Pernilla and Pelle were so friendly and flexible with our check-in. Wonderful hospitality and warmth. The apartment is great and has everything we needed. The patio is a beautiful private space to relax. Highly recommend. Thank you for the wonderful stay!

Bokkombaai- SpringTide Unit- Bloubergstrand
This is my second time coming back to this house. This was the most beautiful, accommodating, value -for-money and spectacular Airbnb house I have ever come across. The views are spectacular. There is easy access to the beach as well an inside and outside braai. The house is very modern and safe. The communication with the host hosts are prompt and professional.

Olive Branch
Great stay, brilliant view looking out over the ocean and city. Sarita was extremely nice, responsive and helpful.

2 Bedroom Apartment above the beach
Cape White eyes, hoopoe ,Fork tailed drongos , sun birds to name a few & the most beautiful of butterflies flitting past the large plate glass windows in our main bedroom were a delight . The indigenous garden and beautiful bay and Silvermine mountain views from Mark's place ensured that I woke up to bird song every morning. As an outdoors person and nature lover staying here ensured a little of the nature that I love and normally seek out staying in National Parks was on our doorstep while I was still able to have my dogs along with us for this holiday . Of course you are choosing Fishhoek as a holiday destination because of the hiking , snorkelling, sea swimming, kayaking , history, opportunities and coastal vibe. There is so much to do and explore right on your doorstep . Check- in was super easy. Mark was a very kind & accommodating host always available by phone. His beautifully appointed apartment worked perfectly for my family & our doggies. Thank you for a great stay Mark

Private Beach Cottage - 3min walk to the beach.
I had the most beautiful weekend at Helen and Amanda's Guest House. 🏡❤️ The property itself is so charming, luxe and comfortable. The best part is that it's a blink away from the beach, and lots of fabulous shops and restaurants! As a solo traveler, I felt completely safe. Amanda was so proactive with her communication and instructions, and Helen gave me the warmest welcome - I truly felt cared for during my stay. 💐 I would 100% recommend if you're looking to stay close to the beach in the Muizenberg area. 👍🏽

Secure Constantia Winelands Cottage
The place was beautiful and peaceful. Felt right at home. We had a long drive from Johannesburg and had to check in a little late, Joanne not only waited for us, but had prepared a lasagna for us so we didn't have to look for food or cook late at night. Place was close to the main roads, so it was very easy to get to where we wanted to be. Would definitely recommend this place and I will stay there again on my next visit to Cape Town.
