The Lookout

AlexRating, 5 stars1 week ago
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

KevinRating, 5 stars7 months ago
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.

Beach, Mountain & Pool side home - no loadshedding

RobinaRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Our stay was absolutely lovely! The house offers a beautiful view of Hout bay Harbour and Beach. You can easily and safely walk down the street to the beach, to the main road. We stayed as a family with a 2 year old child and had a wonderful stay. The equipment in the house was sufficient. The location is quite windy but that is Cape Town and Hout bay. Carrie was a great host and offered all the help You need. Thanks again!

Bayview

MeganRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago
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!

1-Min to Beach | Family Villa with Pool & Games

CecileRating, 5 stars3 months ago
We had the pleasure of staying at Rochelle and her husband’s beautiful house in Melkbosstrand for a work group getaway, and it was absolutely fantastic! Although we were only there for one night, we truly wished we could have stayed longer. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and helpful—Rochelle and her husband met us at the house, explained everything we needed to know, and even let us check in early, which we really appreciated. The house was super clean and had everything we could possibly need. The kitchen was amazingly well-equipped, and the sea views were just breathtaking. It was such a relaxing and enjoyable stay, and we couldn’t have asked for more. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a getaway. Thanks again, Rochelle and your husband, for making our short stay so memorable!

Perfect Beach Getaway

CarstenRating, 5 stars3 months ago
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.

Coastal Charm Villa Kommetjie

ZaskiaRating, 5 stars1 day ago
We as a family loved staying here. Really comfortable for a big family. Great braai area sheltered from the wind with wonderful sea views. I am not a fan of residential areas butbI did enjoy Kommetjie over what is supposed to be a busy weekend. Long walks and cold swims with very little humans.

Relaxing beach front villa with spectacular views

EmelineRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Stunning views all day long, felt right at home! We stayed there for 3 weeks and absolutely loved the house! Would definitely comeback. The pool/ outside area is even better than the pictures. Nice balcony with always a bit of shade, plenty of lounger chairs and great outside braai. The house is very spacious, has 3 proper rooms with views and 1 another back room that doesn’t have windows or a proper door but still has quite some light and 2 single beds. Appliances could have a refresh but the location, feeling of the house, stunning views and welcoming vibes/ flexibility of the host truly makes up for it! Thanks a lot!

Unparalleled Third Beach Clifton Paradise

StefaniRating, 5 stars1 month ago
I lived in Cape Town for 25years and brought my family back to experience its wonders. This Beach cottage was the absolute best base to do this from. We felt safe and this heavenly location is second to none! I swam multiple times a day and the view is second to none which spectacular views of Lions head (which we hiked up-strongly recommend ) and Clifton Beach. I will add that the aircon is not super strong, but David was on it and sent out a repairman to check if anything could be done. This in no way detracted from our dream of a stay! We will return in a heartbeat and will recommend this beach cottage to anyone planning a visit to CT.

The Barefoot Beach Hut - Beachfront, Cape Town

JulianRating, 5 stars1 week ago
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

LorraineRating, 5 stars2 months ago
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

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.

NonyelumRating, 5 stars6 days ago
Lisa was the most amazing host and her team was absolutely fantastic. Super responsive, always at hand to help. Thanks Vee for recommendations, help, check-ins and the responses to make sure that we had all we needed for a memorable experience. We had such a fantastic time in Cape Town and the property made it much more excellent. From the most fabulous views, with the property on the water, to the wonderful amenities, the property ticked all the boxes for luxury - 5 star hotel standard super clean (thanks to Irene, our excellent housekeeper), the gorgeous pool and outdoor area, where you can relax and enjoy the most amazing sunset. The property is nicely located, close to an array of fantastic restaurants, we were so spoilt for choice! Then the beautiful Camps Bay beach! Literally a 5 minute stroll from the property. Great stay, comfortable, safe and just breathtaking! Really wish I could give more stars because this gorgeous home is well worth it!!!

Beachfront private nature reserve Jakkalsfontein

PaulaRating, 5 stars5 days ago
We thoroughly enjoyed our peaceful and relaxing 4 night stay in Niel’s beach house. Although next to another house, it felt private. It has a wonderful view of the sea from the lounge, patio and front two rooms. The home is very comfortable and effectively decorated but some aspects of the house still require upgrading. We loved making use of the resort pool which was within 10 minutes walking distance. Niel was a very communicative and kind host. We recommend this getaway as a perfect antidote to city life.
