Beachfront vacation rentals in Cape Town

We had the pleasure of staying at Rochelle and her husband’s beautiful house in Melkbosstrand for a work group getaway, and it was absolutely fantastic! Although we were only there for one night, we truly wished we could have stayed longer. The hosts were incredibly welcoming and helpful—Rochelle and her husband met us at the house, explained everything we needed to know, and even let us check in early, which we really appreciated. The house was super clean and had everything we could possibly need. The kitchen was amazingly well-equipped, and the sea views were just breathtaking. It was such a relaxing and enjoyable stay, and we couldn’t have asked for more. Highly recommend this spot for anyone looking for a getaway. Thanks again, Rochelle and your husband, for making our short stay so memorable!

Highly Recommended! We had an great stay at this beautiful home nestled along the scenic coastline of St. James. The views of the ocean were absolutely breathtaking, especially at sunrise, and being just a short walk from some tidal pools and Muizenberg Beach was a huge bonus. The host was exceptionally welcoming and attentive, offering great recommendations for restaurants, things to do, and hidden gems in the area. We would love to go back!

We stayed at this lovely place for two weeks and felt at home immediately. Very spacious and cozy 2-bdr/2bath with spectacular views and sounds of the ocean just across the road from the beach. Very convenient underground parking; supermarkets, stores, restaurants either in walking distance (or easy 5min drive). Cape Town only 30min away. James and his family were the most wonderful hosts we've ever had, extremely friendly and helpful at all times. We'll definitely be back soon! Thank you so much for these unforgettable memories.

We as a family loved staying here. Really comfortable for a big family. Great braai area sheltered from the wind with wonderful sea views. I am not a fan of residential areas butbI did enjoy Kommetjie over what is supposed to be a busy weekend. Long walks and cold swims with very little humans.

Allen’s place is lovely! Amos the caretaker took great care of us and to be directly on the beach is so special, I absolutely recommend this place

Wonderful place. Beautiful house, nice interior with a perfect location directly at the beach. We will definitely come back to this place in case we are back in Cape Town.

Stunning views all day long, felt right at home! We stayed there for 3 weeks and absolutely loved the house! Would definitely comeback. The pool/ outside area is even better than the pictures. Nice balcony with always a bit of shade, plenty of lounger chairs and great outside braai. The house is very spacious, has 3 proper rooms with views and 1 another back room that doesn’t have windows or a proper door but still has quite some light and 2 single beds. Appliances could have a refresh but the location, feeling of the house, stunning views and welcoming vibes/ flexibility of the host truly makes up for it! Thanks a lot!

such a wonderful place, you can never regret making this booking. what a pleasure 🙏

Second time we've booked this house, genuinely one of our faves!

Thank you for yet another great stay. Paulos is a real gentleman and very helpful. The place was very clean and comfortable. We shall use it agian in future.

Thanks Adriaan and Nico for what was an amazing weekend away . The apartment was everything we expected and more . We were lucky enough to have 3 evenings of the most incredible sunsets from the comfort of our balcony whilst the barbecue was heating up our dinner . We later went up to the pool deck and enjoyed the night sky from the jacuzzi . Perfect apartment in a perfect location .

This place is perfect for a cosy beach holiday :). The location is superb and the house is beautiful, with lots of lovely decor and gorgeous views. Watching the sun rise from a cosy hot tub was a dream come true! Jessica & Adam were lovely hosts and made us feel at home. The only problem we had was that our stay was too short! Thank you so much, Jessica & Adam. We will be back!

Our stay was absolutely lovely! The house offers a beautiful view of Hout bay Harbour and Beach. You can easily and safely walk down the street to the beach, to the main road. We stayed as a family with a 2 year old child and had a wonderful stay. The equipment in the house was sufficient. The location is quite windy but that is Cape Town and Hout bay. Carrie was a great host and offered all the help You need. Thanks again!

Jane is wonderful and so was the accommodation! Unfortunately we weren’t there long enough to enjoy the swimming pool. Great location and to watch the ocean in the morning over a cup of coffee, a treat. Cannot recommend Jane and the accompanying highly enough. Thank you Jane for helping us enjoy our last couple of days in SA.

We couldn't have been happier with the location or the place. We were easily able to go out and explore. We liked to walk down to camp bay and get dinner and then take a short Uber back up the hill. So many joggers out and around. Very safe. The place had all the details right. Thank you!

We had a wonderful stay in Clifton with our family of 4. Shani's beach house was everything we could have wanted. Amazing location right on the quieter Clifton 3rd beach. The space itself is well laid out and very well equipped. Austin was very helpful on checkin and out. We hope to return soon and would definitely try to stay there again. Thank you.

Mark and Alisa were amazing! They went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. We broke down a few minutes away and Mark was quick to aid us by fetching my family and luggage while I waited for the tow truck. I have to give a huge shout for this act of kindness. Thank you once again. We enjoyed our stay immensely and will be back God willing.

Katie was a great host! Super accommodating and helpful! We had a great stay in their accommodation and would recommend them for sure. 10/10.

We had a wonderful stay!! The house was beautifully furnished, clean, and had all the needed amenities. Our host gave clear instructions and checked up on us throughout our stay. Perfect for a family gathering!! We would definitely return and recommend to anyone.

The place is beautiful, in a quiet and safe neighbourhood and with such a great host in Rachael. My dad had such an awesome stay here. We will definitely be recommending it for all our guests coming from out of town. Thanks so much Rachael for being such a professional and being so friendly. Bravo!

This place is beautiful. the most comfortable beds, fantastic location, everything you need in the kitchen. Sue was friendly and so helpful. you can tell she has great pride in the house and well she should. Reeks of art and culture, of family and friends. Of a home. We could have stayed here forever. Beautiful, Fantastic. So worth every penny. would love to return.

We absolutely loved our stay at Sebastian’s seaside cottage! Falling asleep to the sound of the waves, waking up to mountain views, and being just a short walk from Scarborough’s restaurants and town centre made for a truly special experience. The house had everything we could have asked for—braai facilities, inviting outdoor seating areas, and a wonderfully equipped kitchen (coffee plungers included, which is a rare Airbnb bonus!). Even my partner, who’s usually indifferent to interiors, was charmed by the farmhouse-style kitchen. It was the perfect peaceful and restorative escape—close enough to Cape Town for an easy trip, yet it felt a world away. We’d happily return and highly recommend it to others.

We had an amazing time enjoying what must be the best view in all of Pringle Bay. Such a short walk to the beach and to shops and restaurants too. Ali was a great host and we felt right at home. From the balcony we saw whales, a mongoose, loads of beautiful birds in the fynbos, and of course a few baboons ☺️ thank you for such a wonderful stay, we’d love to be back some time!

The residence is as good as is described on Air BnB. It is the perfect place for a family/friend group. The beaches are in easy walking distance and are lovely. Shopping Centres are nearby and have everything you need. Highly recommended.
