About

Welcome to StayHere, your guide to the most unique and unforgettable places to stay in South Africa, with our main focus on the Western Cape.

We’re a group of locals who love discovering incredible places to call home for a night, a week, or longer. We’ve been doing this since 1999, spending our time exploring the 9 provinces in South Africa, while staying in guesthouses, villas, and apartments that tell a story. We then hand-pick the very best to share with you.

We believe that every stay should be an experience, not just a place to sleep. That’s why we look for more than just a comfortable bed. We’re on the hunt for properties with heart, whether it’s a glamping spot, cabins, cozy cottages with a fireplace and hot tub, a stylish loft with a killer view, or a historic home filled with character.

While we love to be the first to tell you about a new boutique hotel, we also cherish the timeless charm of long-standing favourites and hidden places for the perfect getaway.

We’ve done the research so you don’t have to. Our listings are accurate and informative, with stunning photography. We provide all the details you need to make the right choice, along with direct booking links to make your reservation seamless.

At StayHere, we believe in celebrating the best of what’s available. Our goal is to connect you with stays that will inspire you and make you feel at home.

Welcome to our community. Let’s find and book your next escape in South Africa.
