Bliss on the Bay - Beach Road Condo Surf Spot
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.

The Lookout
Highly Recommended! We had an great stay at this beautiful home nestled along the scenic coastline of St. James. The views of the ocean were absolutely breathtaking, especially at sunrise, and being just a short walk from some tidal pools and Muizenberg Beach was a huge bonus. The host was exceptionally welcoming and attentive, offering great recommendations for restaurants, things to do, and hidden gems in the area. We would love to go back!

Sunset at Granula
Mark and Alisa were amazing! They went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. We broke down a few minutes away and Mark was quick to aid us by fetching my family and luggage while I waited for the tow truck. I have to give a huge shout for this act of kindness. Thank you once again. We enjoyed our stay immensely and will be back God willing.

Sea Breeze Beach Home in Melkbosstrand, Cape Town
We had a wonderful stay!! The house was beautifully furnished, clean, and had all the needed amenities. Our host gave clear instructions and checked up on us throughout our stay. Perfect for a family gathering!! We would definitely return and recommend to anyone.

Commuters Haven (with solar)
The place is beautiful, in a quiet and safe neighbourhood and with such a great host in Rachael. My dad had such an awesome stay here. We will definitely be recommending it for all our guests coming from out of town. Thanks so much Rachael for being such a professional and being so friendly. Bravo!

The Lobster Pot - Simons Town Holiday Cottage
This place is beautiful. the most comfortable beds, fantastic location, everything you need in the kitchen. Sue was friendly and so helpful. you can tell she has great pride in the house and well she should. Reeks of art and culture, of family and friends. Of a home. We could have stayed here forever. Beautiful, Fantastic. So worth every penny. would love to return.

Bayview
We had an amazing time enjoying what must be the best view in all of Pringle Bay. Such a short walk to the beach and to shops and restaurants too. Ali was a great host and we felt right at home. From the balcony we saw whales, a mongoose, loads of beautiful birds in the fynbos, and of course a few baboons ☺️ thank you for such a wonderful stay, we’d love to be back some time!

* Beach Nest + outdoor shower at Strand Main Beach
This is a fantastic 5-star Airbnb! It was a treat for the whole family and had everything we needed for a very comfortable stay. Kim and Petri were excellent hosts and they really care for their guests. I wish them many more years of happy hosting with wonderful guests that will appreciate this wonderful space that they created for others to enjoy.

Backup Power! Stunning Beachfront Ocean Views!
We loved Colin's place very much, it felt like a second home to us, it was really really beautiful. Colin was easy to communicate with and even checked in on us via message to see if we needed anything. Will definitely be staying here again!

Surround Sea Views from a Hillside Villa, Solar Powered
Deborah's place is absolutely wonderful! Beautifully designed with a truly amazing view! Gorgeous sunrises. Deborah was incredibly helpful and flexible with check in and out. Would highly recommend!

Perfect Beach Getaway
We stayed at this lovely place for two weeks and felt at home immediately. Very spacious and cozy 2-bdr/2bath with spectacular views and sounds of the ocean just across the road from the beach. Very convenient underground parking; supermarkets, stores, restaurants either in walking distance (or easy 5min drive). Cape Town only 30min away. James and his family were the most wonderful hosts we've ever had, extremely friendly and helpful at all times. We'll definitely be back soon! Thank you so much for these unforgettable memories.

Seaside Sanctuary
We had a wonderful stay at Sarah’s house. It was extremely well appointed with everything we needed for a fantastic beachside stay. Sarah was very responsive and helpful throughout. We would highly recommend this property to anyone! Thank you for hosting us.

Seas the Day |Beach Front |Wi-Fi
We had the pleasure of staying at Sean's beautiful apartment and all I can say is wow, what a stunning apartment with a great view. Waking up to that view every morning was a highlight of the trip. Sean was helpful and responsive with everything. We will definitely book again. Highly recommend this place if you're looking for a perfect getaway!

Stunning ocean view house with indoor pool
A stunning, spacious house in a prime location with a breathtaking view you could admire forever. The amenities leave nothing to be desired. Communication with Stan was effortless – he responds quickly, communicates proactively, and provided valuable tips that made our stay even more enjoyable. A perfect experience!

Spacious, upmarket 1 Bed unit with beach access
Great location and beautiful apartment.

Boulders seaside home with pool and views!
House is in an area we know well. Love the walkability to the beach/penguins and the even a simple food option for breakfast and lunch. A short drive or longer walk gets you many more options. House has great bed linens, lots of social space, and, of course, a pool... critical for us. Yes, we'd love it to be heated, but South Africa rarely heats pools, and it's always going to be warmer than the ocean. Home also has one indoor garage space, and a driveway that can accommodate at least 3 more cars. Communication regarding arrival and departure and the offer of help during our stay was excellent. We fully intend to be back.

Luxury Beach Cottage
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

The Barefoot Beach Hut - Beachfront, Cape Town
A quaint little spot in a lovely location with super easy beach access. Although bed the bed can accomodate 2 persons, the space is more suited to a single traveller. Safe, with 24hr guarding at entrance. Enroute access to North Coast and easy access south towards V&A Watefront and main city. Very clean and well maintained.

Villa by the sea
We had a fabulous week and a bit in Maureen's lovely Woodbridge Island home. The house is spacious yet homely and we were very comfortable and had everything we needed. The outdoor area is very pretty and secluded and we enjoyed sitting out there in the evenings. Maureen is a warm and friendly host and always happy to help with any queries. We hope to visit again in the future!

Villa Vista Mar
Wonderful property in a beautiful location, easy walk to beach and restaurants. Home has everything you could need, lovely host. Would visit again.

Melkdives
There is nothing quite like falling asleep & waking up to the sounds of the sea. Rachelle's beach home is the epitome of South African West Coast style, especially the outside living area under the verandah. The inside is incredibly charming and every room is very well appointed. We enjoyed whiling away the hours, watching the world go by, waves rolling in, breathtaking sunsets followed by gazing at the Southern stars. Melkbos has a wide arrange of restaurants, most within walking distance and the supermarkets & shops are just 5 mins drive away for self catering options and sunset braai's. Whether you like to walk along the beach collecting shells or go surfing, the options are endless. The Swartland wine region is easily explorable from here as is central Cape Town. Such a wonderful relaxed environment, and next time we will be sure to stay for 2 weeks instead of just one.

Melkbos ocean-front house
We had an amazing stay in Melkbos. The house was great, with all necessities as well as thoughtful extras. Brilliant location, view and setting. Tina went above and beyond to help out when needed. 10/10 would recommend and stay again!

Airy beach-house on golf estate, with solar power
Jeannie is very good. Her place is a gem! Very good communication, understanding and helpful. 10/10!!!

Cozy Seaside Living 400m from Melkbosstrand beach
We had a wonderful time, thank you. Elana and the cleaning company were fantastic to take care of any small need..
