Testimonials

What our guests are saying

An absolute gem in Cape Town! The rooms are beautifully decorated and the staff made us feel like family. Will definitely return!

Sarah MitchellUnited Kingdom

Stayed for three weeks while on contract in Cape Town. The monthly rate was unbeatable and the self-catering kitchen saved me a fortune. Felt like a home, not a guest house. Will definitely return.

Pieter du ToitStellenbosch, South Africa

Perfect home away from home. The self-catering facilities were excellent, and the pool was a wonderful bonus!

Michael OkonkwoNigeria

Travelled down from Joburg for a family wedding and stayed at the Goodwood house. Clean, safe, and the braai area was a hit with the family. The owners go above and beyond.

Nosipho DlaminiJohannesburg, South Africa

Clean, comfortable, and great value. The hospitality is truly African. Five stars!

Anna van der BergSouth Africa

Quiet, secure, and well-located for getting around the Northern Suburbs. The WiFi was fast enough for me to work remotely without any issues. Highly recommended for business travellers.

James PretoriusDurban, South Africa

As a Capetonian booking for visiting family, African Haven was the perfect choice. The Parow North location is convenient, secure, and the hosts treated my relatives like their own. Truly local hospitality at its best.

Thandiwe MbekiCape Town, South Africa

Booked the family room for a weekend break in the city. The pool kept the kids busy and the rooms were spotless. Great value compared to hotels in the area.

Liesl BothaPaarl, South Africa

Spent two weeks here while exploring the Cape. The owners gave us excellent local tips that we wouldn't have found in any guidebook. A genuine taste of South African hospitality.
