Farm stay in Johannesburg
5 out of 5 average rating, 5 reviewsTswalu Grove Safari Lodge: 20 km from JHB: Baobab
Chrystelle goes out of her way to make you feel welcome. The unit was perfect and had everything I needed. I would definitely recommend her place for a quiet stay outside of the hustle and bustle of the city.

Farm stay in ZA
4.88 out of 5 average rating, 32 reviewsFarm stay, meals available, DreamLodge
We (dog included) enjoyed a wonderful stay on the farm. The description Sam gives on Air BnB is highly accurate. Perfect getaway from the city, enjoying the quiet and stillness of the farm. A nice walk along the farm roads was excellent. All the amenities were included, just bring some basics like Salt & Pepper, cooking oil etc. All in all a great stay, highly recommended!

Home in Cape Town
4.87 out of 5 average rating, 71 reviewsBeachaven Kommetjie
A great location with direct beach access. The house had all amenities and was comfortable for a family with kids. We had a slight problem with our toddler wanting to climb the steep stairs to upstairs room and lounge area. Otherwise we absolutely love the place.

4.64 out of 5 average rating, 14 reviewsWhale Haven Villa - Spectacular Sea Views
We had an exceptional stay at this property-one of those life experiences we were glad to had.The villa itself is incredibly beautiful and looked exactly what the images showed. Super nice, clean, comfortable, and well equipped. We were lucky to spot a whale from the patio. Corné is a super-host with a flawless communication. Property’s caretaker Yoli is very helpful and kind. All good, and would definitely recommend staying here.

Private room in Roodepoort
4.85 out of 5 average rating, 53 reviewsQuiet place next to transport, shop and malls.
I recently had the pleasure of staying at a fantastic host's property, and I can't recommend it enough! From the moment I checked in, everything was spotless and welcoming. The location is perfect—nestled in a quiet area next to a church, yet conveniently close to a mall, shopping center, and public transport. It was the ideal balance of tranquility and accessibility. The host was incredibly accommodating and made sure I had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. I would absolutely love to return and experience it all over again!

Farm stay in Van Wyksdorp
4.95 out of 5 average rating, 43 reviews"THE KLIPHUIS"
We really enjoyed our 4 night stay at the Kliphuis. We could switch off and relax from the moment we got there. The directions and self-checkin worked very well. The house had everything we needed, even an ice machine. As our host Jacques was not expecting any guests on the day of our departure, he offered that we could stay an extra night if we wanted to, and of course we did! It felt as if we were in the middle of nowhere, we did not see other people for our whole stay. Although the place is quite remote, its very safe and there is cellphone reception. The huge stoep with comfy coaches on wheels and one of them hanging, was such a highlight. We sat on the stoep almost the whole day enjoying nature, birdlife in/around the river below, and the amazing view of the starts at night. We were woken up by 4 owls on the stoep on our last morning, what a treat for birders. We were also fortunate that there was water in the river during a hot December.

Cottage in Morgan Bay
4.42 out of 5 average rating, 19 reviewsCob Cottage: 2-bedroomed cottage with forest views
We had a magical getaway at Cob Cottage. It really is one of the most remarkable places I've stayed in, with all the handcrafted touches and coloured glass. My kids loved the enchanting yellowwood forest, swimming hole in the stream and semi-outdoor shower – and the yummy pizzas from Soul Food, the onsite restaurant. We spent the evening singing camp songs at the fireplace, the perfect place for a digital detox before it's back to school. The cottage had everything we needed, and more – what with the fresh air and quality white linen, I enjoyed the best sleep I've had for a long while. Our host Elizabeth, friendly and super-helpful, shared fascinating stories about the trees and area. A truly lovely experience - we'll definitely be back!

Vacation home in Paarl
4.93 out of 5 average rating, 15 reviewsBlue Berry Haven - Heaven on Earth Home in Paarl
My stay at Blue Berry Haven was exceptional! Carla is an outstanding host who goes above and beyond, with excellent communication throughout and a wonderfully friendly, accommodating nature. The property is spotlessly clean and ideally located, with shops and restaurants within easy walking distance. After 8 nights here, I can't find a single fault - every detail has been carefully considered to create a welcoming space that truly feels like home. So much so that I found myself wishing I could stay permanently! The combination of convenient location, immaculate presentation, and Carla's fantastic hospitality makes Blue Berry Haven a perfect choice for any stay. Whether you're planning a short visit or an extended stay, I highly recommend this property. It offers everything you could want: comfort, cleanliness, great location, and stellar hosting. A truly flawless experience!

We had a very pleasant stay at Gabbi’s quaint little home. The best way to describe The Hugging Home is that it is good for the soul - quiet, peaceful, and a simpler way of living. Fantastic! Would absolutely recommend it!

Earthen home in Cape Town
4.67 out of 5 average rating, 6 reviewsClay Bungalow
We love the main house where the bedrooms are. It feels warm and welcoming, very comfortable and open to the outdoor areas. It was fun exploring the garden and the round mud huts. We enjoyed the walk that leads to the end where the mountains are.
