Holiday home
Watching the sunset from the stoep was magical. We did the Addo/Scotia tour which was an amazing day out.

Seascape, Vermont Retreat
We had the most amazing stay in Vermont. incredible hosts that were amazingly responsive, proactive and helpful. The view from the stoep is wonderful with easy access to the cliff path. The house is well laid out with everything you need - highly recommend this special stay. We hope to be back again soon!

The Nest on Leisure
The most beautiful Airbnb with the option to go on a free SUP or bike ride in the area. Knysna was lovely and this place felt like home and had everything you could wish for - a cozy fireplace, comfy bed and spacious bathroom.

Beautiful, secure riverfront home
I had a wonderful stay at this house by the river! The spacious and cozy veranda with its stunning view of the water was the highlight of my visit. It was perfect for enjoying morning coffee and watching the sunset in the evening. The house itself was very large, with plenty of rooms, each comfortably furnished and offering privacy. I was especially impressed by the kitchen — modern, convenient, and fully equipped for cooking any kind of meal. Check-in was quick and hassle-free, and the host was always available and provided all the necessary information. I left with only the best impressions. I will definitely come back!

Modern, near river, sea, shops petfriendly, Wi-Fi
The place was very accessible to the sea, restaurants and shops but above all accessible to the sea which we enjoyed. The best part was hiking.... climbing mountains, caves and enjoying with my family was a Woooow!! Thank u

236 Vaal de Grace
Great host, very responsive and proactive. The place is so beautiful, pictures don’t do justice. I loved how I felt at home, we had everything we needed from utensils to earbuds😊 I’m definitely coming back next year.

Ferrybridge House by the river
We really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful house. It was not only equiped with everything that we needed, but had so much more. Adet was extremely helpful and responded to all our messages. I will definitely recommend this house to anyone wanting to stay in Stanford.

Thesen Island water lifestyle
We have spent many holidays on Thesen Islands over the years, renting multiple homes on multiple islands. We have now found the perfect home for us. What you arrive to is so much better than any description or picture and exceeded all of our expectations without exception. It's a stunning North facing location with a wonderful view up the main canal. The home is very well appointed and most notably, for us and for my wife, spotlessley clean. Also very notably we were supplied with the small things that make a big difference and give you a sense of generosity by the hosts; toilet paper, dishwasher tabs, sponges, washing powder, hand soaps etc (you'll be shocked how many home stays don't supply the small things). We are so appreciative to Ilsebe for sharing her lovely home with us. 2026 is already booked. Can't wait! The Farrells
Cottage rentals with a kayak

Whipstock Guest Farm - The Barn
I absolutely loved my stay. The farm is so scenic and peaceful. The cottage is much bigger than it looks on the photos. It had everything I needed and was very comfortable. There are loads to see and do. Especially if you love birds. Beautiful and easy walking trails. Perfect to break away. The hosts are kind, helpful and passionate about the farm.

Sunbird Cottage - Relaxed Farm Getaway
We had a wonderful long weekend at Sunbird Cottage which is very homely in a stunning setting. The farm offered us plenty of opportunity to explore the Wakkerstroom area, and we even enjoyed two walks on the farm itself. The farm fresh milk, eggs and jam were a treat and absolute spoil!

Gingerbread Man's Cottage
Nicholas is a great host, he went out of his way to make sure we felt right at home. Super friendly and easy going! Thanks for having us Nicholas!

River Cottage
Beautiful farm cottage, very clean and peaceful. The Midlands have great things to offer and to do. Most definitely going back soon!!

Gumtree Cottage
When spontanously looking for an accomodation in the Drakensberg, we stumbled over Emmas beautiful cottage. The road to this little cottage was a bit adventourous, but totally worth it. On the one hand you can go on the most amazing hikes close by and on the other hand relax at the lovely little cottage. Thanks to Emma we had a fantastic stay and can recommend staying here to a 100%.

The Cottage @ Wetlands
Lovely space, perfect location, attention to detail.. will be planning my next trip soon. Love the area 💙

Berghaven @ Godshaven # berghaven.underberg
We had a great weekend. Very comfortable home from home getaway. Well equipped and not cluttered! Beautiful, quiet location where you can relax and enjoy listening to the night sounds. Close to all amenities and restaurants in town. Our weekend was the epitomey of perfect South African weather making our duvets too warm. A light duvet for summer would be a good idea. Definitely going back !

Delightful self catering guest cottage
Rene and his family was very helpful and very nice, we had here 3 nights which came very short. It is a beautiful place to stay with very nice views and lots of things to do arround. It was very nice even just sit outside at evening watch the stars with wine. Definitely recommended for families also. My son loved the tortoises and the playground. Even though there were many places we wanted to visit we had to spend some time at home because our son did not want to leave the house
Cabin rentals with a kayak

Knysna Lodge Glamping Self Catering Cabin 3
Tashas place is a real gem! We have never stayed anywhere like this before and it was fab. The cabin is minimalist but clean and comfortable. The other amenities such as the hot tub, sofa looking over the view and Braai are all great. It was easy to uber to town and all instructions were very clear. Tasha is also fantastic so would love to stay again!

Gaia A-frame cabin on the Breede
The hostess was very nice

Mountain Fly Fishing Old Mill No. 4
This surpassed our expectations. It's a very tranquil and beautiful spot; the river by the collage is stunning, and the host was extremely helpful when we got trapped in the mud. Whatever you do, stay a day longer. You will regret not staying longer.

Die Boothuis – at Lake Chrissie
Our stay at Boothuis was absolutely peaceful and immersed in nature. Chrissie Lake is stunning, and it was lovely waking up to the sounds and sights of the surrounding wildlife. Esbie is a super host, providing detailed instructions for a seamless self-check-in. The accommodation itself was fantastic. It was cozy and well thought out, with a great fireplace, a well-equipped kitchen, comfortable rooms, and a creatively designed shower. A perfect retreat for anyone looking to unwind in a beautiful natural setting!

Ezantsi Lodge - Hide away close to Cape Town
We had the most lovely stay at Lalapanzi, the cabin exceeded our expectations and the surroundings and views were so beautiful and tranquil! We will definitely be back soon. Thank you to the hosts for your hospitality!

Buff and Fellow Eco Pod 3 (2 sleeper)
Absolutely stunning! Loved the morning game drive with breakfast afterwards. The bird life is unreal and even had a springbok graze near the dam where we were staying.

Lodge in the heart of the Wilderness Forest
We loved our stay with Michelle. The cottage is perched on a hillside surrounded by trees, which gave us the relaxing getaway we were after. We were visited by the local Knysna Loeries on a number of occasions and we thoroughly enjoyed hiking the many trails in the area and kayaking on Touw River. If you’re looking for a cosy cottage with peaceful surrounds just outside of Wilderness, we’d recommend booking a stay with Michelle.

"Cabine Des Anges" Luxury Wood Cabin at Montevue
An amazing place to stay, would highly recommend for anyone wanting to escape busy life to reset and soak in nature.
