Places to stay in Johannesburg

It was a pleasure staying at Charmaine’s. The house is spacious, very well equipped and comfortable - a real home away from home. The garden was also a welcome distraction for the kids. I would stay there again with pleasure. Thank you for everything Charmaine and Stefan we were so grateful for the house during a difficult few days. We felt safe and comfortable.

Alex was a very friendly, helpful host! The cottage is in a beautiful space and very secluded, set apart from the rest of the property. We enjoyed our stay and have already made plans to return!

Deirdre is a lovely person and well organized host. Her place has the old world charm, comfortable, warm and clean. Loved it. Guests get a welcoming bowl of fruits, cookies and all the essentials one could possibly need for a comfortable stay. There is back-up for everything electricity, water you name it. Very well organized place. My daughter and I felt so welcome and at home that we wanted to extend our stay but unfortunately it was already booked. But, will be back. Thank you D for your warm welcome and making our stay memorable.

Chiara and Jono's space was absolutely beautiful and so welcoming! They made us and our dogs feel so at home. Their two gorgeous dogs were very well behaved and friendly. We would absolutely visit again and definitely recommend the space to our family and friends 🧡

Great communication and lovely accommodations

I travel a lot for work. And this was by far the best experience I have ever had. Amazing place. Amor was more than amazing. They really paid detailed attention making the place so nice.

We had an amazing stay at Julie’s cottage! From the moment we arrived, we received such a warm and friendly welcome. The cottage is a beautiful, airy space—perfect for unwinding and relaxing. We absolutely loved it and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful getaway!

Jonathan is a great host. It is a beautiful house and very special with a beautiful view. We enjoyed our stay a lot. Very good accommodation for families with kids. Already planning our next trip!

The place is wonderful and the hosts are great. Very responsive and allowed me to check in super early. I really enjoyed staying at the place. It is pricey, but stunning views and great location. My only comments are that I could see some of the furniture has been stained, damaged or worn by other guests. Also for a place this expensive there were no luxury amenities. Amenities were very basic. TV in living room was a bit older so I could not get Netflicks or Youtube. Still a great place but these things would have made a great place - superb. Minor touches but this place is definitely still a 9.9/10 and I would highly recommend it.

A last minute find that turned out to be exactly what my mom and I needed to be close to the Linksfield hospital. Daniel provided all the relevant information and videos to make it easier to access the home. Thank you !

Guy & Tanya’s cottage was the perfect landing place for my first visit to South Africa as a Black & trans American writer. The quiet, sunlit mornings with birdsong helped me focus on reading & writing. The steep hill & stairs around the cottage got me back into lifestyle physical activity, which I appreciated. Everyone I interacted with, from the vigilant staff at the entrance gate to the warm neighbor & proficient housekeeper, added to the sense of comfort & safety. When I had an issue with the space heater, the hosts were responsive, & the heating blankets on the bed were clutch. One night I was startled by several barking dogs while walking back to the cottage & Guy quickly intervened, but most days I just saw their chill dog, Django. The hosts were generous throughout my stay, letting me use laundry detergent & even offering a ride to a local café after checkout. The location is also near lots of art & culture events. It was sucha grounding place, would absolutely book again!

Very clean and comfortable space. Well worth the price of admission

A great stay all round - clean, convenient location, very friendly and efficient staff, lots of safe parking. Good shopping centre next door (breakfast at Tasha's, dinner at Cowfish, provisions at Checkers supermarket and Liquor Store).

Amazing space and a quiet and peaceful environment

Beautiful place, Jovana was very helpful and friendly, and the neighborhood is really nice.

I had an amazing stay! The place was exactly as described—clean, stylish, and incredibly comfortable. Ruth was a fantastic host, quick to respond and super helpful with local tips. The location was perfect for everything we wanted to do, and it truly felt like a home away from home. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing and hassle-free stay. Would definitely book again!
