Belvedere Game Ranch Entire Lodge (Sleeps 13)
This is an amazing place for a big group of people, so worth the money. Really lovely setting and a great stop over on route to Mozambique 🇲🇿

Forty-Winks, Rosetta (Standard Cottages)
My friend and I recently stayed at your cottage near Nottingham Road, and we wanted to express how perfect it was for our needs. We were looking for a quiet place to catch up and spend time outdoors, without being too far from the hub of restaurants/shops and bars. The cottage had everything we needed, including super comfortable beds, a cosy fireplace, and breathtaking views. I will definitely visit again and highly recommend this tranquil stay! Thank you for a wonderful experience.

Sunbird Cottage
Awesome place to stay even though the time went by so fast. Great hosts...Thank you Angie & Raymond. Would go back anytime 😊

Driftwood Chalet
10 out of 10. Tranquil and relaxing location within walking distance to the beach. Lovely and friendly hosts who go the extra mile. A real gem

Eastbury - Garden Cottage
Jan was a wonderful host. My wife and I could not have found a better place to stay in Hermanus: the space is beautiful and the location could not have been better.

KarMichael Farm - Fisherman's Cottage
Lovely cottage and made for a beautiful little getaway. The heated blankets were amazing for the cold. Cottage was equipped with everything you may need for a short stay. Highly recommend.

Bougainvillea Cottage
This was our second stay at Bougainvillea Cottage and it was just as lovely as the first time! We were there for four weeks and enjoyed every day. The house is cozy with a well-equipped kitchen, a spacious bathroom and a nice bedroom. The outdoor area is wonderful with comfortable seating furniture and the large pool in the green garden to stay there and relax. The house is located in a quiet and safe residential area, the two very friendly dogs provide additional security. Everything is well maintained and very clean, it is cleaned weekly and even washed the laundry on request for a fee - a great service. Chrismare and Ben are great, very kind hosts who have done everything to make us feel right at home. We will gladly come back and can recommend Bougainvillea Cottage without restriction.

Beacon Vlei Guest Farm - Boathouse
We loved Beacon Vlei. The Boat House was a great getaway house for our full family (4 people, 2 dogs, and a baby). The view from the main bedroom is beautiful, looking out over the lake and the mountains in the distance. Our dogs had a blast as well swimming in the lake and running free on the ample grass fields.

Buffalo Hills Private Game Reserve Fishing Cottage
Lovely place. We stayed over after a hike in the berg. Too short but a lovely spot. Nicole was also super helpful as I asked to leave my laptop with her for the duration of the hike so it didn’t sit in a hot car for 4 days. Easy to pop past and drop it with her beforehand. Next time I’d like to have more time to enjoy the spot!

African Safari Lodge | Deluxe Suite 1
Beautiful and quiet guest lodge just outside Grahamstown. Peaceful with magnificent views and beautiful scenery. A must for anyone in the Grahamstown area.

Loerie Cottage@ Somerset Gift Getaway Farm
Amazing location with a cottage providing rustic charm. Several hikes to beautiful vistas and a lovely outdoor setting to enjoy the sunset. Nearest supermarket is 17km away, so be sure to bring everything with you. Lovely pond for zip line and canoe activities

Eco-estate sweeping ocean views - no load shedding
we absolutely loved the house, the surroundings and all that Southbroom has to offer. The golf course is the centre of all activity and we spent lots of time there. All the beaches are spectacular and happily safe and wonderful to walk on. the house is very comfortable and well laid out. The maid, Amanda is a real asset and we were very happy to have her. we would love to return this house next year.

Kairos on the lake 4-sleeper
Amazing place to take the family, peaceful and beautiful views of the lake. Warren the manager was very friendly and super helpful. Would definitely recommend. My family and I had a awesome time

Lake Brenton Paradise
We stayed at Sandi’s property for the month of February 2024. The house, which is situated in gated safe and secure parkland, is exactly as described and pictured. The kitchen is extremely well equipped, and the living areas are very comfortable. The TV/satellite channels are comprehensive and the Wi-Fi worked beautifully. The patio area is large and a lovely space to sit, eat, barbeque, and relax in the company of the Bushbucks and other friendly wildlife. Fantastic highly recommendable places to breakfast, lunch and dine, are all within a 5 minute drive, as is the magnificent Brenton on Sea beach. The regular load sheddings posed no problems as an inverter is in place. On top of all that, Sandi was on hand to advise and support us if needed. Her local knowledge, professionalism and good nature was invaluable and was ‘the icing on the cake’ of our sta y, she is indeed a ‘Superhost’ and such a lovely person.

Sunset Creek Game Lodge - Chalet 1
Gary was in touch before and during our stay will any necessary information, and was always willing to assist. It was an absolute pleasure to stay at Sunset Creek.

Kairos on the lake- 2 sleeper pet-friendly chalet
One of my most peaceful and enjoyable stays. The accommodation spacious with lots of natural light and air flow. It’s such a treat to read a book 📕 on the bench on the jetty, on the lawn or on the comfy couch. Our doggies were in heaven - they loved the spacious lawns, and feebly chasing after the naughty coots 🦆. Magical evenings at the braai nestled within shrubby nook and view of the lake. Well-appointed kitchen. Lovely easy-going hosts. We cannot wait to return!
