Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Hout Bay

Barry’s home was a real gem, we enjoyed our stay, the kitchen had all we needed and they were so kind to even leave spices and other things for us to use on days we cooked. There was linen for us to change beddings and we really felt at home. Barry would communicate every time when service people were coming to do their work. My children broke a kitchen window and Barry was so understanding and arranged to get it fixed when we could not manage to secure someone to fix it due to not being familiar with where to get service providers ( thank you for this Barry). The place was really what my family needed and we really felt at home. I would recommend this home for anyone needing a quiet secluded place with a river flowing in the backyard for quiet morning reflections and meditation.

What a wonderful time we had in Alex’s beautiful Higgovale House with its special atmosphere. A home from home we felt immediately at ease. The tropical gardens give the feeling of being in the midst of the jungle - despite being only minutes from the lively Kloof Street with its many restaurants and coffee shops (wine bar/coffee shop/deli Tamboerswinkel deserves a special mention). We felt very safe at night and enjoyed being able to access Cape Town‘s sights quickly. A highlight was our hike to Lions Head - again only a stone throw away from the house. Alex’s great communication throughout our stay was not surprising, given his friendly welcome and advice and whilst we didn’t stay long enough to get to know her, housekeeper Barbara also seemed very friendly and attentive. We will be back!

Such a lovely place walkable to the beach and local shops.

Superb place with a genuine ‘home’ feel to it. Lots of communal space inside and out and a gorgeous garden to enjoy. Tracy is a super host - responsive and shared loads of advice what to do locally. Hout Bay is a 10 min drive.

I absolutely loved my time at this garden cottage. It was everything I needed for the Easter break and my dog had such a fun time sniffing about all the flowers. It had everything I needed inside it as well.

Loved our stay, would highly recommend if visiting Cape Town! Good location for a long stay, close to shops, restaurants, parks and in a very safe neighbourhood. The property had everything we needed, and a great outdoor area where our toddler could play. Justin was an amazing host, very responsive and attended to any requests we had :)

Wonderful place, feeling remote and really in the country side while being extremely accessible for all points on the Cape peninsula. Noordhoek is calm and with the farm village, other restaurants and a vast, natural beach, a great place to stay. The house is calming, comfortable and has a spectacular view.

This house is a magical place. The views are spectacular. The owner is amazing and responsive. His property manager was available and understanding. The house itself is in pristine condition, caters to your every need. The bathrooms, linen and crockery was exceptionally clean. Overall, just a wonderful experience. Highly recommended.

We had a lovely stay, the space is beautiful and peaceful. Good quality linen and everything you need in the kitchen. Jannineke is a friendly and helpful hostess and made us feel right at home.

We stayed for a week in Nat’s Seapoint apartment and loved our stay. Nat was very communicative which made everything very easy and the apartment is a delight. We loved the location and enjoyed walking both to the V&A Waterfront and the other direction to Camps Bay from Seapoint - glorious sea walks in both directions. The flat had everything we needed and was so close to restaurants and local shops - would definitely stay again if back in Cape Town!

Very lovely place. Had everything that we needed. Catherine was very friendly, helpful and welcoming. Wish to visit her place again in the future.

Amazing stay at Jacques' place in Cape Town. The apartment is great is extremely well located. Looking forward to staying there again.

We had the most incredible stay at this Airbnb in Cape Town — hands down the best place we’ve stayed in the city. The host was super efficient, friendly, and made everything so smooth from start to finish. All the key information to access the property was sent in advance, complete with videos and clear instructions, which made check-in effortless. The apartment itself was spotless, beautifully clean, and had the most breathtaking views. It’s in the perfect location — just a short, safe walk to the Seapoint and the infamous 'Orangezicht Market', and ideal for a morning run. The beds were extremely comfortable, offering just the right mix of coziness and privacy, and the whole space felt warm and homey. We’re already looking forward to staying here again the next time we’re in Cape Town! Pauline & Anton

Susan’s place is even better than imagined. It has a unique view of Clifton’s bay, very safe and private with 24/7 security. The decor is very charming and you feel right at home. Everything was clean, smelled great, bed and linen were comfortable. The kitchen has a lot of amenities and perfect to cook. Susan’s daughter Inge is very friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend this place and will likely be coming again. Thank you for hosting us.

This is a beautiful, light, spacious apartment right in the heart of Seapoint and with stunning ocean views. We had a brilliant stay with really responsive, helpful comms and everything we needed. We look forward to coming back soon!

We had a lovely mid-week stay at Harbour View Cottage. The cottage was neat, clean, and looked exactly like the pictures. Check-in was a breeze. On arrival, I parked my car in the free, secure off-street parking bay and didn’t need to drive again for the rest of our stay. All the little shops and amazing restaurants were within easy walking distance. We could also buy a crate of wood from the host for the cozy fireplace. Our favourite part of the cottage was definitely the outside stoep. It offers incredible ocean views and is enclosed with glass doors that can fully open up. Whether the weather is good or bad, you can fully enjoy the stoep area. The Bootlegger downstairs was super convenient for a great morning coffee and breakfast. My only complaint? Our stay was too short! :D

Allen's home on Clifton beach was perfect for our family of 7. Unbelievable views of the beach with amazing windows to view from most every room. I could have stayed there a year. Amos, the in-house keeper, was amazing at the household duties and we enjoyed seeing him around the property. We will be back and we will recommend this amazing place.

What a lovely place! It had everything that we needed. The view was absolutely spectacular and our time at Broadlands was very refreshing. Kathy was a wonderful host. She was very friendly, shared really interesting community information and took time to make sure we were settled and comfortable. We had a wonderful stay!

Wow. Absolutely amazing place. Stayed here for 3 nights with 5 adults and 5 children. Home is large, spacious and complete luxury. Would highly recommend if you are looking to visit Cape Town, but stay slightly outside the main city

Beautiful location! A great place for a relaxing getaway with everything you need.

We kicked off our 5 week stay in South Africa with a weekend at this place. It was gorgeous and the location was perfect for us with 2 kids so close to the tidal pool and the Folk cafe. Would definitely come back.

I had the pleasure of staying at Glen & Ilke's property, and I couldn't be more impressed. The accommodation was immaculate, with every detail thoughtfully arranged for comfort and convenience. Glen was an outstanding host—attentive, communicative, and very accommodating. They made sure everything was in place for a seamless stay. The location was ideal, and I truly felt at home during my time there. I highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone looking for a top-notch experience!"

Stewart was an amazing and helpful host. We enjoyed our stay, the location was amazing as well! We were close to the town and all of the establishments. Will definitely consider Stewart’s place anytime I’m in town. Great host :)

Great location and luxurious home.
