Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Garden Route District Municipality

This is truly one of the most stunning places I have ever stayed when it comes to nature on your doorstep. We loved it and hope to return as soon as possible

We had an absolutely fantastic stay at this property—it exceeded our expectations in every way. The home is beautifully equipped with everything we needed, making our time here incredibly comfortable and relaxing. Nestled in a quiet and secluded part of Wilderness, it provided the perfect escape from the city The highlight, without a doubt, was the breathtaking view. Whether enjoying a morning coffee or unwinding in the evening, the scenery was simply spectacular. The attention to detail in the home made it feel warm and welcoming, and we truly appreciated the thoughtful touches throughout. If you're looking for a peaceful retreat with stunning surroundings, this is the place to be. We can’t recommend it enough and would love to return in the future!

Maria made us feel right at home. The place is incredible, and the furniture is equally impressive. We mostly followed the recommendations they gave us. The house is situated in a very safe area, just a 5-minute walk from a restaurant and a coffee shop. The beach is just a 10-minute walk away. It’s the perfect place to stay with a baby. We used the barbecue and beach chairs. Knysna is an ideal break on the Garden Route. We would have stayed longer if we could have!

We had an absolute wonderful stay. The bedrooms are beautiful and the beds to comfortable. The bedrooms and shared spaces are so spacious. We had everything we needed regarding crockery, cutlery, towels, linen, etc. The Airbnb was extremely clean. We enjoyed every minute of our stay and we will definitely save this for a next time!

Wanted a dog friendly, secure Airb&B in Plettenberg Bay as I was remote working and visiting friends. House is as per the advertisement and I was happy overall with the house. Decent size, secure, quiet with all amenities and the hosts were friendly and very responsive to queries. No complaints. I will stay here again. Top marks from me. This is how an AirB&B should be advertised and run...they could give lessons to others

The location is excellent. It is a 2 minute walk to the shops as well as to the Poortjies Beach. Early morning walk and swim with dogs a must do! House easily accommodated 8 of us and 2 dogs with lots of enclosed space to leave dogs at home while out and about. House is well equipped with everything including 2 fridges. (Only had to bring Nespresso.) Inverter installed but did not need. Comfortable beds and bedding. Fans in every room. Lovely pool and braai area. Lots of separate spaces in house for quiet time. Our host Elizabeth was excellent. Very friendly, well organized and extremely accommodating to any request. The house offers cleaning option if you require. We used once and changed bedding. We had a really relaxing and comfortable stay and would highly recommend this accommodation.

What a beautiful, spacious home overlooking the river and its treasures. We l9ved birdwatching from the deck and the beach was literally over the road. Phiri was so helpful and accommodating. Thanks for a lovely stay!

Very spacious, lovely accomodation with a great location.

We really loved our stay and the place is beautiful. Host is very helpful and quick to respond.

Staying at Christel 's top floor Santini Village unit was a comfort and a delight. Sitting on the patio early evening with a view of the mountains was relaxing. The unit is well equipped and so clean, immediately after walking in the front door we knew we had made a great choice. A few minutes drive away from the Plett main centre and Central Beach makes it a good base to explore from.

The house is absolutely fantastic. Private garden with a nice pool. Veranda is very nice to enjoy your breakfast and diner. Rooms are of a good size and the house was very clean. 100% positive experience.

Lovely spacious house with good views. All on one level except the living room and very well equipped. Excellent communication from Elmo with lots of local suggestions. Small problem with hot water dealt with very quickly and efficiently. Very comfortable accommodation that we would definitely revisit.

We loved our stay at the poolhouse! Check in was easy and Tom and his colleagues were always fast to respond if we had questions. There are some restaurants and coffee shops within walking distance and the house is perfectly located near the water. We traveled with two small children and would without hesitation stay at the poolhouse again:)

We had an incredible few days at the house in Knysna! It was so comfortable and inviting that we never wanted to leave. We enjoyed swimming, braaiing and relaxing while watching movies together. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we could possibly need, plus some lovely extras. The rooms were clean and the bed really comfortable .The owners Kate and Grant, were incredibly kind and helpful, making our stay even more enjoyable. I would absolutely love to return whenever possible. It was a fantastic experience and I highly recommend it!

We spent our winter in this small but fine villa and had a wonderful time in this house and in Plett for 2 months. Simion and his wife are a great team and keep the house in top shape with their cleaning! Whenever we had a request or question, it was immediately answered and resolved by Denekah. Thank you for this great communication and support. The house and kitchen have everything you need for a comfortable stay. The small pool was perfect for cooling off and breakfast in the morning on the terrace was a nice start to the day. With its location, the house is in a very good and safe neighborhood, the beach and the new shopping center are within walking distance. We had a wonderful stay here in Plett Thank 😊 you!

We had a wonderful stay at Barbara’s charming studio! Nestled under the trees, the space offered breathtaking views and a peaceful, natural setting. One of the highlights of our visit was the daily extravaganza of sunbirds visiting the birdfeeders—truly a magical sight. The studio was cozy, well-appointed, and the perfect retreat for a relaxing getaway. Barbara was a gracious host, ensuring everything we needed was taken care of. We highly recommend this serene escape and can’t wait to return!

Thank you so much for our stay! Your place is even Nicer in real life than what the pictures show. It was exactly what we needed for our stop over, really relaxing, clean, comfy, private and "homey". If we could fit that bed in the car i would have left with the bed and Memphis, your Doggos are all awesome, but Memphis is something else, super friendly and loved the visits and the howl greetings from the window, such a love bug, we are Huge Animal people and that made the visit even more special! Will definately visit you guys again when we up this side!

Thank you Stephanie, for a great stay! The house was spotless, and your thoughtful touches made us feel right at home. We appreciated your quick responses and helpful recommendations. Staying at WaterWind was a pleasure.

A beyond five star stay! The stay was the most comfortable I have ever had with my elderly mom who has special needs for her mobility. Owen and his support are incredible and helpful. We literally never needed for a single thing. It is comfortable, clean, well located, all the possible utilities you might need. If you are going to Knysna, you have found your dream accommodation right here!

It was a lovely stay at Aneryne's cottage. We loved the view from the terrace, the vibrant wildlife around us and really enjoyed all the amenities this little gem had to offer. Aneryne and her little darlings were wonderful hosts - super friendly, fun and very helpful with tips about the area. We will definitely come back if we are in the Knysna area again and would highly recommend a stay.

Alicia( the host) is friendly and easy to communicate with. The bedroom, living room and bathroom is clean and neat. The area is a walkable distance from coffee shops and other restaurants. I will again stay with you when I am in Mossel Bay

Beautiful area on the hills of Knysna, Didn’t meet host/s but they were responsive and helpful 😁. The outside shower was very cool 😁. Including was a breakfast, which i didnt take as i was on my way out to friends. So in all, the price you pay and what you get - its a bargain 🙏🏻

This felt like home away from home and we were very grateful to be able to stay here. This was a beautiful well-kept home with peaceful & pristine natural surround’s. The main bedroom offers first world bird watching as the window looks right out into a tree canopy. Didn’t even need to go anywhere to bird watch. Enjoyed walking in swimming near by. This is a unique home with a well appointed kitchen. Thank you for our stay. Hope to be back soon!

I think this is our 4th stay here. Spacious, peaceful, and feels like you’re in the country with George just a few minutes away. We will be back.
