Where Boutique Hospitality Meets Property Expertise
About Bed of Roses Luxury Rentals
Bed of Roses Luxury Rentals was born from a deep passion for hospitality and a desire to offer guests a refined, memorable experience along South Africa’s iconic coastline. Based in Plettenberg Bay, this family-run business quickly became known for its curated collection of luxurious holiday homes, thoughtful guest experiences, and personalised property management. Each home was managed with the utmost love and care—creating not just getaways, but lasting memories.
With a natural synergy in values, service, and vision, Bed of Roses Luxury Rentals proudly merged with Rose Eedes Properties—a name that has stood for integrity, professionalism, and excellence in South African real estate for over 30 years. Founded by Rose Eedes, the company began humbly in Observatory, Cape Town, and has since grown into a multi-branch agency, now operating in the City Bowl, Southern Suburbs, Cape Peninsula, Atlantic Seaboard, and Plettenberg Bay.
This merger represents the best of both worlds: the personal touch and hospitality ethos of Bed of Roses, combined with the deep market knowledge, operational strength, and decades-long reputation of Rose Eedes Properties.
Today, our luxury rentals division continues to offer a handpicked selection of exclusive homes—each one managed with precision, passion, and professionalism. Whether you're booking a beachside holiday or seeking a trusted team to care for your home, we are committed to delivering an experience defined by trust, discretion, and elevated service.
