Hostel vacation rentals in South Africa

Great place if you are looking for cool and vibrant hostel-ish accommodation for surfing holiday. They offer surf rental and classes right at the building. Yoga classes and coffee and restaurant are also in the same building. And location is superb - right on the beach with top views. Disadvantages are noise at night (sometimes there are parties in the bar in the same building as the hostel) and not very clean kitchen.

Amazing stay, can't speak highly enough of David. Helped me out where ever he could and provided more then he needed to. Definitely recommend

This was the second time I stayed at Curiocity (first time booked through airbnb). It's a great hostel with a community feeling. The dorm room is comfortable although it's not likely that you'll spend much time in the room. There are plenty of other travelers to socialize with in the bar, the courtyard, or the balcony, and even if you're traveling alone it's easy to meet people to go on excursions with. All the staff are really helpful and you can get laundry done for 40ZAR, which for a long-term traveler is a godsend. The area is a very safe part of Joburg with private security and lots of shops and restaurants in the street, a little quiet during the week but very lively on the weekend and you're able to walk around at night. It's also very easy to get an Uber as there are usually a few in the neighborhood. The wifi works well in all public areas although sometimes it doesn't quite reach all of the rooms. Would definitely stay here again. Thanks guys!

The house was clean and neat and a stones throw from the beach. The back yard braai area was sheltered from the wind. Our group of 6 people was comfortably accommodated. We would definitely come back.

Had a fabulous time! Accommodation tasteful, clean and comfortable. Rosie is very friendly and helpful and the area felt very safe.

Perfect place to relax and unwind. It’s right on the beach with a pathway to get between the lodge and the beach. The drinks at the bar are very reasonably priced. Nice neat and cosy room. I highly recommend it, definitely will be back!

Lovely place to stay - strongly recommended. I stayed at the hostel for one week to explore Cape Town. Staff and guests were all very welcoming and helpful.

Very convenient location. Super friendly hosts. It is a hostel/backpackers kind of set up, so it’s very communal. However I had a great private room with my own bathroom.

I really enjoyed my stay here. It’s a backpackers as a backpackers should be...functional, clean and affordable. The staff are the best thing about Urban! Centrally situated in the city, it is the perfect location for exploring Joburg.

The Spot is a wonderful place, I will return as much as I can. Staff are wonderful and friendly. The room was comfortable and clean. It is quite literally right on the beach. We got lucky to have the best weather and blue seas during our stay. Thank you, Spot Staff!

Really well-equipped and cosy hostel. Everything is super clean and the reception guy Jason is super nice and helpful. Loved the fire place and the roof top bar!

Thank you for going out of your way to provide save & affordable accommodation in Worcester. I appreciate your hospitality.
