Vacation rentals with lake access in Onrus River

Wow, what an amazing home and surroundings. Beautiful, modern, clean and uncluttered home, comfy beds and great entertaining areas. The hot tub (with a view) was a firm favourite. Thank you for allowing us to stay.

The house itself is stunning and elegantly decorated, with a great yard for dogs to run around safely in. Close to Arabella, Hermanus, Onrus Rivier, Kleinmond. There should however be a braai dishes and some more oven dishes for catering. Hosts were very responsive and answered questions within minutes. Great spot to use as a base to explore the area.

Lovely and well kept, Heleen was super as a host, the location was amazing with clever architecture to hide from the wind and still enjoy the clear nights and days.

We had a relaxing time with friends and family, the Lagoon lends itself to plenty of time on the water paddling water skiing and fishing. The house is very well equipped and well maintained.

Great spot. WOAT very helpful. Location is great.

Beautiful spot. Ocean one side, mountains the other. The mountains were a lot closer than I was expecting and were so beautiful. The nearby lake is also walking distance and the kids loved it and it was great for training in. The house was lovely - lots of space and felt very open. The blinds are fantastic for helping to sleep in. The washing machine is a great addition. Dawie was climbing Kilimanjaro, but made sure we had an alternative contact but he even kept in touch from the mountain - he is a great host. We loved the homely feel and the family history evident in the home. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

We had a fantastic family stay at Carol's beautiful beach home. It was spotless. The house has everything you need for a comfortable stay, and we felt at ease and relaxed from the minute we walked in. Nice courtyard at the back to entertain and keep out of the wind on some of the days. Otherwise, a lovely braai spot in from of the house on the verande with ocean views. Morning coffee on the veranda every day, with a view of the ocean, was a treat. Just a short walk down the path to the harbour with restaurants and little shops as well as soft serve ice cream. A brisk 2km walk down to the main beach all along the coastline making. Carol was super friendly, and her home is truly a gem.

We fell in love with the village of Stanford and the soul restoring River Home. This beautiful house is right on the river's edge and is a real treat (and retreat) to stay in. Just the place to surrender to nature, listen to the birdsong, rest and restore. We loved walking along the delightful river path. A short walk into the centre of town will bring you to several delightful restaurants. We ate at three of them (for lunch at Madré we enjoyed a really good pork belly with crispy skin and vegetables, at La Trattoria we had a feast of authentic Italian food and Agteros has a menu full of delightful South African dishes done with a modern twist). We also brownsed in some delightful homewear and gift shops. If you prefer eating at home, the kitchen at River House has everything you need to cook a gourmet meal. It is spotless, has a great gas hob and electric oven and a dishwasher for cleaning up after.

We really enjoyed our stay at Van As and Marianna's place. It exceeded all our expectations, and everything looked even nicer than in the pictures. The view of the ocean is beautiful, and we even spotted adorable penguins in the yard. The muffins left for us on the table were delicious! Marianna and Van As are incredibly friendly, welcoming, and kind hosts. We highly recommend this Airbnb!

We had such an incredible stay at Rene's place! Great location, clean, and really kind and helpful host. We loved the outdoor shower! Walking distance to the rock pools and beach and a short drive to Hermanus and the town. We can't wait to come back to visit.

I needed a weekend to relax and clear my head and that’s exactly what I managed to do. The view was incredible. I saw some amazing sunrises and sunsets. The area was peaceful too. Even though the cabins are close together, you still feel like you’re completely alone out there. The cabin had everything you needed. Lisa was also quick to respond to messages.

We really enjoyed our time at the cottage. it was quiet and peaceful but close enough to all major sites and lots of restaurants. The cottage is well furnished and has more than everything you could need for a shor or long stay. The garden and patio are well furnished and make for a relaxing chill spot after a long day of sightseeing. Our pets were also well accommodated for and had a wonderful time playing in the garden.

what a beautiful getaway 😍, would definitely come again.

Kyle’s place is absolutely incredible! The views alone are worth the stay—truly breathtaking. The house itself is spacious, spotless, and beautifully maintained. Everything was fresh and inviting, from the clean linens to the lovely scent throughout the home. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed, which made our stay even more comfortable. Kyle was an outstanding host—extremely responsive and helpful, always quick to reply to any questions we had. We genuinely wish we had a couple more days to soak in both the house and the charm of Hermanus. Without a doubt, we 100% recommend Kyle’s place to anyone planning a trip to Hermanus!

Hanlie's place was an amazing place to stay. I had never stayed at a cleaner Airbnb before until now. Hanlie was always on hand if I needed any help, she recommended a lot of restaurants/things to do. Plenty of immenties, change of bedsheets and towels for longer stays much better than hotels. Hanlie and her husband were great listeners and we had good conversions. I would definitely recommend this place and I would stay again. 🙂

Very nice place. Picture perfect views, immaculate unit. Well organized, well equipped, piecefull and relaxing. Good braai area. We will be back !!!

Even though we had horrible weather the days we stayed at the house, we still had an amazing time. The house has a nice fire place to make the experience cozy during cold or rainy weather. The kitchen is perfectly stocked, the beds are very comfortable and the view is spectacular even during stormy weather. Close to Hermanus and Stanford but also nice and remote so that we could properly disconnect. We could not have been happier.

Lovely location, remote enough for nature lovers but just 15min from Gansbaai for groceries, etc. Plenty of scenic walks for all fitness levels, multiple swimming spots, nearby Lomond wine farm has great MTB trails. The cottage is spacious and comfortable, the covered outdoor seating area with braai is a relaxing vibe. Would revisit for sure.

This was our second time staying here. We love it. Great location. Lots of entertainment for the kids. Alex a fantastic efficient host. We will definitely be back.

Gull's nest is a lovely spot. Bass lake is an amazing place for a swim with lovely views and an expanse of open water. Unexpected and a definite favorite from our visit.

The cottage was fantastic, beautiful setting with great privacy. You have a whole dam to yourself, walk in the vineyards, relax in the wood fire hot tub under the stars. No complaints, but do not plan to cook a lot of meals, the kitchen is small and washup area, we lit a braai outside and that was perfect. Definitely would recommend and return.

The cottage was private and plenty of outside space for our beach toys and dogs.

Very pleasant and quiet place. Super friendly hosts and the hot tub is truly a standout feature! I definitely recommend.
