Meghan’s apartment is perfectly located in a very quiet area. The building has few apartments making it a cozy comfortable place to stay. The bedrooms and the kitchen have a new furnishings and have been recently renovated. We enjoyed our stay. Meghan is super responsive. Highly recommended to everyone especially if you like running on the promenade.

Walk to V&A & CTICC! Cozy. Secure parking. Pool
Perfect location for CTICC conference, being 5 minutes walk from it. Safe, quiet, secure, comfortable. Julia and team are proactive and really care for your wellbeing and comfort.

Luxury 2 Bedroom in V&A Waterfront - 302 Ellesmere
The host team were amazing before arrival during arrival and stay and as we departed! They couldn’t have done enough for us and were always so helpful with recommendations and tips. Thank you so much. The apartment itself was perfect, great location for V&A and first time in capetown.

Spacious One Bed Over The Canal No Load Shedding
Our stay was fantastic! The location is excellent—just a 10-minute walk to the V&A Waterfront, the stunning Silo Hotel, and the incredible Zeitz MOCAA museum. You can take a scenic and safe walk along the canal behind the building, though the path closes at 8 PM, after which an Uber is necessary. Fortunately, Uber is both affordable and reliable, costing around 60-70 ZAR from the V&A to the Airbnb. The unit itself is beautifully designed, impeccably clean, and highly secure. However, there were a couple of drawbacks during our stay. Unfortunately, the washing machine was out of order, which was a key amenity we were looking for. While Rest Easy provided a laundry service as an alternative, not having access to in-unit laundry was disappointing. Additionally, the mattress was extremely firm—something to consider if you prefer softer beds or have back issues. That said, Rest Easy was wonderful to deal with—responsive, accommodating, and professional. They even held our luggage for a few

Harbour Bridge Suite 220

Entire house 2-bedroom, garden and backup power
Very nice apartment with a lot of love for detail. Despite the central location, it was very quiet. We thought it was great to have the garage right next to the apartment. Communication was quick and friendly. We can only recommend the apartment and would love to go back at any time.

Relax at Bungalow 22 ~ Clifton 3rd Beachfront
This was one of the best experiences I've had with an AirBnB. Thank you, Nicholas, for your quick responses to all of my questions and most of all, for arranging to have Austin help us with all of our needs! We were a far way from home, but felt so comfortable and tended to that we will definitely be back!

Glen Beach Penthouse A on Glen Beach in Camps Bay
Mary Louise's place is awesome. It is right on the beach, on a section that is quiet from the rest of Camp's Bay beach. Very nice. The view is great and the sound of the waves is very refreshing! The location is down the hill from the road. ML's instructions were very clear and there was no problem with them. Parking is on the street. As an american driving on the opposite side of the street, it took a little manuvering to get right. There are narrow stairs down the hillside, so this place would not be for the elderly or those that struggle with stairs. The beds were comfortable and the showers worked well. The kitchen is well stocked and amenities were good. There is a small grocery in Camp's Bay which is easy to find. It is on the far end of the main commercial area. About a 10 minute walk, located next to the Starbucks. We really liked the robes provided. The whole area was comfortable and relaxing and we had a great stay!

23 on Woodbridge Island
Amazing stay at 23 on Woodbridge Island! The location and views are stunning, and the apartment was spotless and beautifully decorated. Martina made check-in effortless and was quick to respond to any questions. The space is perfect for relaxing, with a great setup for remote work as well. Highly recommend this place, can’t wait to return!

Luxury townhouse in vibrant De Waterkant
Zebra house exceeded our expectations in every way. This lovely, old and characterful house is beautifully decorated with art pieces; the kitchen was cosy and the beds were wonderfully comfortable with high quality linens. The Bo Kaap neighbourhood is central for many activities and has some great cafes and restaurants. Helet greeted us on arrival and give us lots of information about the area and Cape Town generally. We had a fabulous stay and would love to return.

Rooftop Pool | Views | 24h power
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Denis’s in De Waterkant! The apartment was stylish, spotless, and perfectly located in a charming and vibrant neighborhood. Denis was an exceptional host—friendly and responsive. The space was comfortable, well-equipped, and felt like a home away from home. We truly enjoyed every moment of our stay and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Cape Town. Thank you, Denis, for a great experience!

Stunning views, lovely home.
Our stay at Ben’s home was fantastic. The perfect home away from home near the beach and in a fantastic estate. The house was very clean and homey. I would definitely come back for another holiday here with my family.

On the Rocks in Bantry Bay
We had a wonderful stay in Bantry Bay, the pictures on the site are an exact match. A great property, with all the amenities, and a great location. Ubers would arrive within 2mins, and were very cheap. £2.50 to Camps Bay and the V&A waterfront. Shaun was very responsive and helpful. We’d highly recommend this property. Cheers Andy & Gemma

Sublime Seaside Studio
We had a wonderful stay at Marc's place. Beautiful views, very safe, wonderful team at the reception area, gorgeous apartment. We will be back!

A magical home on the Cape Town Waterfront Canals
Don't stay anywhere else in Cape Town! Wonderful, safe location within walking distance of so many great great restaurants and sites at the marina. We got very very cheap Bolt or Ubers everywhere else. It is a wonderful location. lovely outdoor area to relax with little pool to cool off, perfect and comfortable outdoor furniture. inside is spacious, clean, tastefully decorated with everything you need. Bed and bedding are very comfortable. Laurene was so helpful and communicative. Truly a great place to stay and so much better than a hotel room. We wouldn't come back to Cape Town without being able to stay here. Thank you.

Sea Point Beach Front Gorgeous Apartment
Marlene was a perfect host, extremely helpful. Location could not be better. Travelled with my three friends for a wedding and we had a wonderful few days in Cape Town. I would highly recommend this place to stay.

Sweeping Ocean Views, Large Deluxe Condo
It felt like home, the view is incredibly amazing.. the sound of the ocean in the morning made me feel very cosy, staff was very very friendly and helpful.. its very close to waterfront , we woke up and went for a walk by the beach… i would 100% recommend it

Wake up to the waves. Modern, spacious, ocean view
Wonderful stay with a beautiful view and great location in terms of convenience to attractions. Security was very friendly, helpful and we had peace of mind regarding our safety during our stay. Communication was clear and instructions was easy to follow. Apartment was clean, spacious and we felt like we were home. Bed was comfortable, shower pressure was good. The cool ocean breeze and the fan provided was perfect so no issues with the lack of aircon. Will definitely book again!

Backup-Powered Camps Bay Beach Condo
My husband and I had a wonderful stay. This property was so very clean, comfortable and had everything in the kitchen I could possibly ask for. The neighborhood is very quiet and the street is also very quiet which we greatly appreciated. Communication with the host was very easy. It definitely is a home away from home. Love that we were very close to beaches, shops and restaurants. We look forward to coming back next year when we visit our daughter who lives in Cape Town.

V&A Marina - Gulmarn 101 - With Power Backup
