Guest Houses in Africa

Extremely welcoming - great hosts. Ciska was helpful and terrific from start to finish, even preparing early breakfast for us to accommodate our early tour. Must be a new guest house as the locals were unfamiliar with it - you'd never know with the polished hospitality!

I had a great experience at Montagu Vines. The property and my room were beautiful and the breakfast was a good as any I’ve had at at B&B (made even more enjoyable by the view over the garden and olive grove). Best yet was the personal care provided the owners Pam and “Ant” who are very hands on. I highly recommended Montagu Vines.

Incredible boutique experience! From the moment we arrived, the staff treated us like royalty. Every attention to detail. A wonderful afternoon tea followed by happy hour. Beautiful room, incredibly clean, stunning views. Highly, highly recommend staying here on your Garden Route drive! Thanks again to the wonderful Team!

The guesthouse was really beautiful and looked as if it was brand new. We only stayed for one night but we got some great tips on what to do in Swellendam and even for the rest of our trip. The breakfast was also really good! I would definitely recommend to stay here, for the beautiful place and the nice reception by the owner.

Staff was friendly and helpful!!

This guest house felt like a home away from home. The fire was inviting and the staff were warm and fun to talk to about rugby and all things South African. Breakfast was delicious and the rooms were individual and comfortable.

Great location and amazing staff

This is a beautiful bed and breakfast at the foot of Table Mountain and in the middle of an eclectic neighborhood where all the good restaurants are. The owners are very gracious and gave us great tips on where to go, what to see in Cape Town and the surrounding area. It was not just a hotel stay but a true experience to be there.

We Spend 2 nights at the end of a 10 days stay in Cape Town for our honeymoon. The room was great, the bed really comfy, the view from our balcony was amazing. The 2 nights we were there, they left creme brulee and chocolate covered strawberries on our bed. It was really sweet. The staff was helpful and friendly.

It’s a beautiful guest house and in a lovely quiet spot. We were greeted very pleasantly by Dawn(?) who kindly showed us the wonderful facilities. If we ran a guest house this is exactly how we would do it. Our bedroom was beautiful with plenty of room and a very comfortable bed and a lovely shower. The views of the ocean are marvelously relaxing. The guest lounge was fabulous, again very relaxing with tea and coffee available as in the bedroom. The breakfast area is beautifully laid out and the...

This place was a wonderful ending to my trip. The owners and staff were wonderful and made the place feel so homey. The surroundings are gorgeous and peaceful. I loved watching the peacock and chickens. I felt so relaxed and confortable I would definitely recommend and return.

An Exceptionally Comfortable and Memorable Stay From the moment I arrived, I was truly impressed by the warm hospitality and attention to detail at this hotel. The check-in process was smooth and efficient, and the staff made me feel welcome right away. The room was spacious, impeccably clean, and thoughtfully designed to provide maximum comfort. I especially appreciated the high-quality bedding, which made it easy to relax and get a good night's sleep. The amenities provided were also...

Great accommodation in very special surroundings

Beautiful amenities and exceptional hospitality professionals. Do note that it’s about 20 minutes from the city center and do NOT be frightened by the sketchy drive leading up to the property through narrow, bumpy durt roads.

Great people and beautiful place to stay, feel like home

Our room was small, but very well designed and the view was to die for. Sitting outside at night was incredible. They have larger rooms and they all have a great view. Breakfast was very good.

After Sahara tour and a day’s travel by taxi from Mezouga, we’re really exhausted. Walking through their modest front door, we found ourselves in a lavishly beautiful oasis. Our room is neat, styled with signature handcrafts of Fez. Hotel manager is a smart and very friendly lady who listened and tried to accommodate our needs. We spent a day in old Médina with tour guide Abdullah recommended by hotel. He led us swimming through this charming maze and ended up appreciating the wisdom and...
