The Sea-View Lodge @ Ocean 9

A short distance from a water park, sailing, and more, this beach apartment lets you experience it all. Thanks to the convenient covered onsite parking, you can either leave your vehicle behind and let your feet make short work of the 12-minute walk to Rietvlei Wetland Reserve, or easily tackle the quick 2-minute drive to Sunset Beach.

After you return to this 1615-sq-ft apartment, you can unwind at the beach (enjoy the sun loungers!), chill by the outdoor pool, or sip a drink in the hot tub; you may also like the garden. As for the great indoors, you can come inside and enjoy the free WiFi and TV.

This 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom rental features a living room, a BBQ grill, air conditioning, and a desk. Bathroom amenities include a hair dryer, towels, and toilet paper. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchen, complete with an oven, a stovetop, and a refrigerator, as well as a coffee maker, an ice maker, and a microwave. And you won't have to pack extra clothes, because you'll have a washer and dryer, too.
