Beachfront holiday rentals in Hout Bay

We had a lovely stay at Imraan's! The house and the view were so stunning and that made one almost not want to leave the house at all. We also got great recommendations and communication was also very easy. Thank you!

We had an absolutely unforgettable stay at this incredible Airbnb. From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. The space was spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we could possibly need – from local snacks to fresh linens. The location was ideal – quiet and peaceful yet just a short walk from amazing restaurants, shops, and attractions. We especially loved watching the sunset each evening over the ocean. Our host was communicative, welcoming, and genuinely invested in making sure we had a wonderful experience. Every little detail – from the ambient lighting to the cozy bedding – showed how much care and love went into the home.

Our stay was absolutely lovely! The house offers a beautiful view of Hout bay Harbour and Beach. You can easily and safely walk down the street to the beach, to the main road. We stayed as a family with a 2 year old child and had a wonderful stay. The equipment in the house was sufficient. The location is quite windy but that is Cape Town and Hout bay. Carrie was a great host and offered all the help You need. Thanks again!

This lovely place in Hout Bay was the perfect retreat for a long-overdue girls trip with my best friend. The space is serene, beautifully kept, and had everything we needed—from the private pool to the mountain views. Gail was a warm, attentive host. Highly recommend!

Rustic beach house. Not much to the accommodation, simple and comfortable. exceptional location. Loved our stay. Feels like you’re in a David Attenborough documentary. Would definitely return

I had an absolutely wonderful experience staying at this Airbnb. The house was spotless, well-maintained, and thoughtfully designed for comfort. The location was ideal—quiet yet close to everything, making it easy to explore the area. Access to the unit was seamless, with clear instructions and a hassle-free check-in process. The host was friendly, responsive, and truly committed to ensuring a great stay. If you're looking for a clean, convenient, and welcoming place to stay, this is definitely the perfect choice. Highly recommended!

this house was all we were hoping for - and then some more - for a quick family getaway weekend. breathtaking location, stunning home, sea view, modern yet comfortable, all amenities one could hope for, it felt like home away from home. johan was extremely communicative and helpful throughout.

We had a wonderful 2-night stay. The apartment is perfect for two guests...cozy, clean, and equipped with everything you need for a relaxing break. It’s in a great location, just a short walk to the tidal pool and beach. You can hear the waves breaking from the apartment, which made the stay feel extra restful. The views are stunning – better in real life than in the photos! Roy was a kind and welcoming host, and we really appreciated all the thoughtful extras he provided – coffee, rusks, milk, water, and more. Thank you Roy for such a lovely stay!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Villa Ondine. The house was great, clean and well kept. It has a lovely grass area and pool with a beautiful view. Leon was a great host! Would definitely go back again.

When we arrived, we went to the wrong place and Graham came to collect us - he even helped and carried some of the bags. The apartment is stunning. Overlooking the sea - what a view! I can't wait to go back because I was not disappointed. By the way - the security lady was so helpful.. Graham is a gem as he kept on checking how we were doing..

I would like to extend my sincerest appreciation to Esta-Marita for an unforgettable experience. During my first trip to Cape Town for my 35th birthday, this house exceeded my expectations. My sisters and I had a wonderful time, and we are grateful for Esta-Marita's accommodating nature. If you are planning a trip to Cape Town, I strongly recommend booking this house, as we were truly saddened to leave and return to America due to the profound impact it had on us. I have recommended this residence to many friends who were interested in visiting South Africa, providing them with the necessary details. Thank you once again. Warm regards Ronnie

This place exceeded my expectations. The place is more spacious and beautiful in person. The host has thought of every little thing that you would need. It felt like home and the place is surrounded by beautiful beaches and has a farm about 5 minutes away. Would love to return soon.

Words cannot describe the location of this property. Literally ON the beach with the most beautiful sunsets. Private and tranquil. Honestly just felt like heaven when on the deck by the pool looking out over this setting. A little jealous that I don’t get to live there. 😉 Absolutely stunning.

We loved our stay here while we were visiting Cape Town. It has an amazing view of the ocean and a wonderful outdoor space to enjoy it. The house was extremely clean and well-stocked for our stay, and Naomi was very kind and attentive. There is plenty of space for anywhere from a couple to a large family to stay. We will definitely book this Airbnb again on our next trip to Cape Town!

The apartment is a lovely neat pad practically on the beach, and close to to restaurants & shops. I found it very safe to walk to all the amenities. the apartment was very clean, Ezelna was very welcoming & I enjoyed my stay.

I’d book this again in a heart beat

Kim was fabulous as was her place. Exactly what I needed being solo in the area for a few days. Also easy walk into Simon’s Town.

5 star stay! Wonderful experience staying at this beautiful Airbnb. Natascha is an excellent host - easy to communicate with and welcoming. The place is spacious and fully equipped, perfectly clean and very tranquil. Great location and amazing views! We can highly recommend this place and am already looking forward to staying again. Thank you! 

The address is a promise. Sunset Ave. The studio is floating above the seas between skies and waters. The garden is the endless ocean that touches the shores of Antarctica far away. A daily show of sun and clouds and waves. The day appears from behind the mountains, the night arises right in front. In a safe distance from the city noise you just hear the swell and the wind. A terrific beach literally lies at your feet. The studio is nicely equipped. A big bed with a big panorama window to watch the spectacles of nature and a big screen for the spectacles on Netflix. A desk with a view to work, a corner to cook, a bathroom to recreate, a balcony to sit outside catching some tan and for sundowners. Big coffee machine, big cabinet, Romy the owner and Wendy her right hand are great, super friendly and super easy. Everything worked nicely. I’ll remember my stay with great pleasure perhaps until I can return to refresh the good times there.

It was the most beautifulf home in the most beautiful setting, with views of Chapman's Peak and the ocean and a calming home to view them from. The house is well-located and walking distance from the beach, restaurant and shops making it an easy location to stay with kids or guests not wanting to drive far. We enjoyed morning runs up Chapman's Peak and coffee breaks at local coffee bars. The house was clean, generous in space and beds were incredibly comfortable. The host was always available for a quick query. We highly recommend this spot!

I had a wonderful restful and peaceful stay at Tara and James's cottage. The bed is comfortable with good linen and pillows. Tara was very attentive, responsive and proactive which I appreciated.

Hazel’s place is beautiful, well stocked and located within minutes to the beach and lots of restaurants. The place is spacious and clean. We had a wonderful stay. Highly recommend.

Our family had a memorable stay at Bas' home for a week. The home catered for every need we had especially keeping our 10 year old and 1 year old girls entertained with lots of play options. Arjan, our host, was super proactive and even got us a new microwave pronto when the current one malfuntioned. The neighbourhood is great with Chapman's peak drive and Hout Bay right at your doorstep. Fully equipped home and lots of local action avilable to explore. Truly a gem in Hout Bay.

My experience was the best. Heath and Belinda were very accommodating during the entire process from booking to checking out. They gave me so much information about the surrounding area and activities as well as transportation during my stay. Being my first time in South Africa I felt right at home.
