3 bedroom Oasis in Table View - Inverter!
Oasis on Table View was a beautiful house to stay at it really felt like home away from home, Margot and Veronica were amazing hosts, very helpful and accommodating, Margot gave us clear instructions on the house and how to manage the house as well as making our stay comfortable. Veronica showed us around the beautiful house. Both hosts were friendly and welcoming. The house was kept really clean and organized, it was really spacious and welcoming, the location was perfect and quiet, the house was well secured with alarm system and beam sensors , the pool and Braai area were well kept and neat we really enjoyed using the pool and relaxing in the back garden. There are several malls in the area about 10-20 min away. We will definitely book our stay in Cape Town the next time we visit. Thank You Margot and Veronica for hosting us.

MODERN, BRIGHT, STYLISH House with Private Pool
Loved Brianna and Bradley's place. Stunning architecture, fabulous lighting and beautiful views of the mountain from strategically placed windows. The photos don't do it justice. The pool is clean and a delicious treat and the lovely, well-kept garden is protected from the wind. We ran out of gas but Brianna was very responsive and delivered a refill quite promptly. The outside shower was definitely a boon. The unique Shell-shaped kitchen wall/enclosure made for an interesting "space within a space". The mezzanine creates a cosy tv room at the bottom and comfy WFH space on top. Wifi reception throughout the house was great. I absolutely recommend this gorgeous home and will definitely be back!

Ocean Vista Luxury Villa: 4-Bed | Pool & Views
I had an amazing experience at Lance’s place. The house lived up to the photos clean, stylish, and fully equipped with everything I needed. The location was perfect, with plenty to explore nearby. Lance was communicative, welcoming, and offered great local recommendations. I felt right at home! I recommend this place and would definitely stay again!

Cape Lights
There is the full score for this home! The rooms are bright and very tastefully furnished. Everything is super clean. Each bedroom has its own bathroom. The garden with the mini pool is also very well maintained. We felt like at home there. The surroundings are safe. Cute little cafes and restaurants are very close. We can imagine coming back next year.
Rooftop Pool | Views | 24h power
We stayed in the place for 14 days, 2 couples. We very much enjoyed our time. The house matches the description, is beautifully designed and well maintained. The outside area is well-thought trough, provides sun-protection when sitting outside and offers amazing views over Cape Town and Table Mountain. The house offers 3 bedrooms distributed over 3 floors. A bit of a negative is that although you can close the doors, privacy can be an issue as it is not fully sound proof. Lightning could be better in the bathrooms, but design won over. The service was great, cleaning excellent and the pool was well maintained. The surroundings are great, plenty of coffee places for an easy breakfast, bars and supermarket nearby. Easy to go for a morning run to Green Point and Sea Point. We loved it and highly recommend the place. Thank you.

Secure, serene oasis enveloped in leafy views
We had an amazing weekend at Kelly & Ryan’s place! The host was incredibly accommodating and made sure everything was perfect for our stay. The house was spotless, beautifully furnished, and in a fantastic location. Communication was excellent, and they even went the extra mile to kindly allow us early check in and late checkout. Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Cape Town.

Beautiful House In Secure Estate
Staying here felt like having a second home! The place has everything you need for an unforgettable stay. It is exceptionally clean, beautifully maintained, and located in a truly breathtaking area. The complex is one of the most stunning and secure places in all of South Africa. Our host was beyond amazing—so kind, helpful, and always available whenever we needed anything. He made sure everything was perfect and went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The house itself is perfect for families, with comfortable beds and a fully equipped kitchen that has everything you could possibly need. Every little detail is thoughtfully taken care of. From the seamless check-in process to the lovely welcome basket waiting for us, every moment was a delight. The host continuously checked in to ensure we were having a great time. We truly cherished every minute of our stay and will definitely be coming back. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for such a wonderful experience!

Cheerful 3 bedroom home with parking on premises
We booked this place for work for 1 week, but ended up stay 2 weeks. Russell was cery friendly and accommodating. We extended the stay twice with no issues. The place is clean, quite and ideal for a work or family stay. Plus he has backup water and electricity supply. We will definitely be staying there again.

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.

Salty Breeze Boutique Retreat:Garden Cottage &Pool
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.

Glen Beach Bungalow Main House
Our stay at Mary-Louise’s villa was incredible! The location on Glen Beach is unbeatable, with breathtaking ocean views and the soothing sound of waves. The villa was spotless, stylish, and had everything we needed for a perfect getaway. Mary-Louise was a fantastic host—helpful and welcoming. Can’t wait to return!

5 bedroom House & Shared Pool
We booked Rustic Retreat for our family who were together for the first time in years and it was the perfect place for all of us. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Jade was always quick to respond with any queries or needs that we had. The house is very well maintained and is exactly as seen in the photos. I would recommend this B&B to anyone.

Ocean Views
Amazing house, clean comfortable and safe. Kerry was extremely responsive and flexible with our check in and check out times. We were able to store our luggage at the house after checkout until our flight that evening. The house is in a very nice neighborhood and the view is beautiful. Our large van was able to easily fit into the garage. Highly recommended.

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.

Doran Vineyards Manor House
We split this beautiful place 2 with other couple friends and enjoyed the relaxation so much. The views were jaw dropping at sunset over the vineyards.

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!

A Touch of Country - Pets welcome
I would definitely book there again, thanks for the stay!

Modern cottage in picturesque garden
We had an incredible stay at Corinne’s place! The location was perfect—close to everything we needed while still feeling peaceful and private. Communication was excellent, with quick and helpful responses throughout our stay. The house itself was absolutely amazing—beautifully designed, spotless, and equipped with everything we could need. We’d love to stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone.

3 Bedroom entertainers hideaway Blaauwberg Area
Had a lovely stay and enjoyed the amazing outside area! Our doggies were super happy here too!

Colourful Home with Rooftop and heated Plunge Pool
The place is in a great location and is very walkable. The only downside is there is no air conditioning in the main living space, but they do have little units in the bedrooms. Overall very nice
