The Knysna Garden Apartment - No Loadshedding!
We had a wonderful stay at this lovely Airbnb! From the moment we walked in, it felt like home. The electric blankets and wall heater were a huge bonus, keeping us nice and toasty during our stay. The room itself was a perfect blend of charm and coziness. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and would definitely recommend it to others. Thanks to the host for creating such a warm and welcoming space!

Luxury romantic apartment at the ocean 1h CapeTown
This was deep exhale from the rush of everyday life. We spent slow mornings listening to the ocean and quiet evenings watching the sun set over False Bay. It is a rare kind of place that leaves you softer, quieter, and more connected to yourself. Thank you Eva and Marina, you will see us soon again. ✨❤️

Thesen Island Luxury Penthouse
It is our second time staying here and we most definitely come back again. Centrally located with the most beautiful views over the lagoon. Surrounded by restaurants and shops but apartment is private and quiet at night. Kitchen is well equipped with all necessary to cook any meal. Extras like purified water and cookies. Open plan lounge and dining area. Netflix and You Tube available. Lovely bedroom with lots of cupboards. Bathroom with shower and bath. We can recommend this accommodation if you love nature and also like to be centrally located.

Your apartment was spotless and the location was perfect for exploring the city. I really appreciated your quick responses. You clearly put a lot of thought into making your guests feel welcome, and it showed. I'd highly recommend you to anyone looking for a fantastic Airbnb experience. We can't wait to come back.

This apartment was beautiful! We loved our stay and already discussed coming back before we even checked out. The location was perfect, on the V&A but also had privacy whilst in the room. Mona was great with showing us around and being there at check out too. There’s a booklet with suggestions for restaurants/things to do in each area of Cape Town which was really helpful. Highly recommend!
