“It was a beautiful and quiet stay, my family and I enjoyed it very much”
The view of mountains from the bedroom. The cosy feel of the property. The toys and available board games made it easy to avoid switching on the tv

“THE perfect home away from home”
Perfect holiday apartment!! The apartment was huge and equipped with everything you might need for a pleasant vacay. Communication with the owner was so nice and we got responses on short notice. The neighbourhood is quiet, seems like there are a lot of holiday houses around. The city Center is in walking distance distance although it might be complicated to walk home by night if you don’t have a torch or have any challenges with walking off-road.

“Excellent Birthday Weekend Away!”
We loved the location as Habitat is excellently located close to the CBD of Clarens and to the conservancy trails. The sunsets on the deck area during winter is stunning! Habitat is furnished beautifully with all that you require and more from a self-catering establishment. The fireplace is great during winter and kept us warm during the chilly evenings and nights. The boardgames provided kept us entertained during the evenings and especially during loadshedding. The bed was super comfy and the electric blankets were most welcome. All in all, Habitat is stunning!

“The perfect stay”
Beautifully decorated cottage, with everything you need for the perfect getaway. Conveniently located, within walking distance to the city square, restaurants & shops; yet still close enough to nature to enjoy the tranquility. Mel is a wonderful hostess. I highly recommend Habitat!
