Die Vissershuisie - on the beach - beautiful view
The accommodation in Paternoster is absolutely stunning with a fantastic location and breathtaking ocean views. The house is beautifully designed and features a well-equipped kitchen, making it easy to prepare meals. We felt very comfortable and truly enjoyed our stay. The beach is spectacular, offering soft sand and a serene atmosphere. As a bonus, we even had the unforgettable experience of watching dolphins play and jump in the waves. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a peaceful and scenic getaway!

Paradise Beach Langebaan Flamingo Apartment
Paradise Beach is the pinnacle of West Coast living! Paul & Jolene were the most incredible hosts and went above and beyond in every respect. I travelled with a baby and they did everything to make our stay comfortable and baby safe providing. They not only provided a baby cot, but brought toys, a gate for the stairs and even took us to the beach with all the equipment you would need provided (umbrella, chairs, mat). We felt so welcome, at home and spoilt. Thank you very much for making our trip so memorable!

Tranquil GEM - lush garden view + solar energy!
Great deal, did the job!

Bergvlei Cottage at Treks, Trips and Trails
Magda and Chris are charming warm and friendly hosts. You immediately feel at ease on arrival. A map and quick guide of the area proved invaluable. Their place is a true hidden gem in the Drakensberg, waiting for you to discover it. Stunning uninterrupted views filled with beautiful birdsong choruses in landscaped gardens. The house is charming and the open plan kitchen and living spaces are great to spend time with loved one's. The kitchen is fully equipped and provides everything you need and more. Little complementary goods on arrival add to the unique touch and welcome of their place. We lost time sitting on the outside terrace enjoying the beauty of the area. Fire and gas bbq's are provided with a complementary stack of wood for all you braai enthusiasts out there. Lastly thankyou to Chris and Magda for an unforgettable stay. We will definitely be coming back.

Life's a Beach Cottage
We had a great stay at this cottage - close to beaches, restaurants, convenience store etc. Beautiful outside area to relax. We loved it! Just to note: The parking setup is a little tight if there is a guest in the next cottage - may be better suited for smaller cars? Lovely time, nonetheless! :)

House Hennie
It was all excellent. We had a domestic accident with my father, Cornelia was very helpful and thoughtful! We love the place, many animals can be seen from the house deck. Nearly every night, an elephant came to visit our deck😍. We will surely return, super indico!

Valley View Villa
What an amazing place to stay! The view of the surrounding vegetation have us a sense of living amongst the forest. We felt safe and relaxed. Ample space as a living area. Thank goodness for the Aircon! A life saver! The pool was so amazing and loved the deck for my braai time. The beach and local restaurants were a short pleasant walk. Bev and Phil were great at communicating and super friendly. I'd certainly return and stay at Bev and Phil's venue. Highly recommend staying here..

CypressCove @ Romansbaai Collection: Private Beach
Staying at Thys and Hildegarde’s place was an incredible experience. It might be one of the most beautiful place I’ve ever stayed in. We enjoyed swimming and the amazing sight of zebras and several types of antelope roaming around. The property is well-organized, elegant, and luxurious, surrounded by breathtaking nature and pristine, stunning beaches. Thank you, Thys and your partner, for an unforgettable stay!

Modern 3-bedroom apartment at 427 Ballito Hills
The host communicated well and gave very clear instructions. My family and I enjoyed the space. The apartment is central to everything (Mall, beach and recommended restaurants)😀

2 bedroom apartment with free parking on premises
The apartment is well furnished and clean. There were a few things missing for a long term stay, but these were provided upon request. A few more dishes would be good. We would rent the apartment again.

Selah-on-Sea
We had the most fantastic time at Selah-on-Sea. Tracy was a superb host and was super flexible and helpful with our requests. She also made sure to check in with us during our stay. The house is just as described and works perfectly for a bigger family on holiday. We felt right at home with its lovely and relaxed atmosphere. Well equipped kitchen, clean, spacious and a perfect location. We loved being able to walk to main beach and the main road. All beds were super comfortable and more than enough cupboard space for everyone. The playroom for the kids was a hit. Thank you for having us, and we can’t wait for future holidays as we’ll definitely be back! 😊

Kruger Park Lodge Unit No. 221
Had a great time. The house is perfect and accommodative, beautiful scenery, the sound of the river topped it all up. Definitely worth going back.

Unity Beach House, Salt Rock
Coastal Bliss with Luxury Escapes. Our stay with Luxury Escapes on Durban's North Coast was unforgettable. The location offers stunning ocean views and direct beach access, perfect for creating magical family memories. The house is modern, spacious, and equipped with all amenities, making it feel like home. Ntokozo, our host's representative, was exceptional, not just maintaining cleanliness but also cooking delicious meals and joining us for heartfelt conversations. His presence made our stay uniquely warm. The beach activities were a hit, from fishing and swimming to sunsets. This Airbnb provided luxury, comfort, and personalized service, making it a must-visit for anyone seeking a memorable coastal retreat. Highly recommended for its blend of luxury, hospitality, and scenic beauty.

Upmarket, one-bed apartment, walk to the beach!
Our 2nd stay at The Jade & we've had great time again - felt like home for 7 weeks! In a great location, it's a peaceful & secure spot with friendly residents & now right next door to a small mall with a very good supermarket, shops & places to eat. Always very easy to communicate with, Garth & Dawn are super hosts, checking in with you regularly to ensure your stay is both memorable & runs like clockwork! Definately recommend 👍🏻

Its location near Casterbridge was perfect — we enjoyed the lovely restaurants and shops just a short distance away. Highly recommend this charming spot for anyone looking for a comfortable retreat in a convenient location!”

One-of-a-kind, around the corner from the ocean
A lovely space to relax in. We really enjoyed the whole experience and on days when we weren’t hiking, we simply chilled by the pool. Thanks for a great experience.
