Large roomy house with fantastic amenities- great value for our family get-together
Location was perfect for our requirements. Liked the ‘African’ theme very much. Swimming pool was great, and dining and living areas were comfortable and spacious. Good security system in place.

Dr Robert V L., Florida

The house was spectacular! There was far more space than we expected and it was charming!
The house and grounds were more like a small resort/lodge than a regular home. The bedrooms were more than ample and the living space was fabulous. Couple all of this with a beautiful swimming pool, tennis courts, and even a trampoline and you get the idea. We were lovingly cared for by Shoes: A terrific housekeeper who made sure our every need was met. This was a stunningly good stay in Johannesburg!

About the host

Host profile image
I love South Africa and have family in Joburg. I divide my time between South Africa and the UK

Why they chose this property

The location is excellent for access to the most important areas of Joburg and beyond. The thatch is so African, you could be in a lodge in a game park. The smell, the high roof, the coolness.... nothing beats it

What makes this property unique

Once you see the property you will understand. It has immediate appeal. It has great security and yet very spacious inside and out.
