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

This house is a true gem! Every room radiates love and care, and as soon as you enter it, you feel at home. The view from the terrace is breathtaking, the atmosphere simply magical. You want to stay forever! It is by far the most beautiful house we have ever had in South Africa. We sincerely hope to return one day!

We were made to feel so special with a personalized welcome board at the entrance to the island, a water bowl waiting for our dog after a hot car drive, and a really helpful info pack that kept us busy with things to do & see. The house is gorgeous and has everything you could ever need, and Maria & Martin are so lovely. The island is such a special place and we can't wait to return. Highly recommend!!

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!

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.

A great home with lovely views.A very Friendly Phiri to welcome guests. I would gladly recommend this home , exactly as depicted. Thanks for having us.

Very spacious, lovely accomodation with a great location.

Everything perfect for our purpose. Thank you.

Overall a super place to stay in a beautiful home. Linda was a superb host who took the time to communicate everything and in a timely manner too! The house is in a stunning location with great amenities and plenty of spaces to sit and relax and admire the views. The weather during our stay was a little unpredictable but the house came into its own as it’s so large everyone can spread out and escape each other if they need too! Thank you Linda!

We had a wonderful stay at Christels place, clean, beautiful and as advertised.

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:)

Exceptional stay! The Airbnb exceeded our expectations in every way. It felt like a home away from home. The location was perfect, offering both convenience and a peaceful atmosphere. We truly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone looking for a comfortable and peaceful stay.

Excellent all round despite some inclement weather. Views and set out of overall place was excellent !!! The driveway was possibly the only thing I would improve. All round it was a wonderful experience in the wilderness from your Aussie guests. Roger and family

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!

Beautiful place, very homely. Great base to do stuff if you’re driving, a 5 min drive into everything.

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!

Easy and flexible check-in with the cutest faces (🐶) to greet you. Apartment was very clean and tidy and looked just like the pictures. Great location with lots to do around. The doggies were an extra bonus when missing ours from home.

Stephanie was an amazing host, always responsive, helpful and friendly. My kids and I stayed for a month and had a wonderful time. We took a walk to the beach almost everyday. Can definitely recommend.

This is the most amazing place we have ever stayed at! Beautifully crafted wooden cabin at the edge of Knysna Forest with absolutely everything one needs for a truly memorable stay. You feel completely disconnected from the hustle and bustle yet it’s so close to everything! Waking up to endless mountain and forest views, abundant wildlife and spectacular sunset is priceless. The cabin is well equipped with all the amenities one needs for a fantastic time, it’s clean, it’s spacious, it’s comfortable, And-it’s pet friendly! Can’t wait to visit again 💙

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

Absolutely loved our stay! What a little gem! I was in love with the outdoor, natural, plant shower! It’s was so soothing. The unit is done so tastefully and clever. We had all we needed. We even extended our stay. Coffee in bed was such a treat for us. And our doggie was very happy to! They are lovely hosts and we can only highly recommend this place. Great location to explore Knysna and the surrounding areas. We will most certainly be back! Thanks for a super stay!

We LOVED our time at Peter’s. Perfectly close to the lagoon; perfectly huge garden for our two labradors; perfectly comfortable home for two families with toddlers. We plan to make it an annual trip. Fell in love with NV and Peter’s house.
