Our Story
M&M Guest Cottages began in 2022 from a simple passion: to host people well. Not as a chain, not as a corporation — as a person who genuinely loves welcoming guests and making them feel at home.
We're different by choice. The whole property is solar powered with full water backup. We recycle, we plant vegetables and herbs, and we share what the garden gives. We love animals, and pets and families are always welcome to book with us.

The whole property runs on the sun. Load-shedding and power cuts simply don't reach you here.
A full water backup system means a hot shower and a running tap, whatever the municipal schedule.
Ten minutes from OR Tambo International Airport and two minutes from the nearest malls.
Illiondale is a friendly, peaceful suburb with community jogging paths and tree-lined streets.
Your four-legged family members travel with you. We love animals, and we make room for them.
We recycle, we plant vegetables and herbs, and we share what the garden gives with our guests.

"After a long flight, arriving at M&M felt like coming home. Warm, quiet, spotless — and the garden herbs on the bedside table were such a thoughtful touch. The best stay we had in South Africa."

"Ten minutes from the airport and you'd never know it. Birds in the morning, solar power that never blinked during load-shedding, and a host who genuinely cares. We'll be back."

"We travelled with our dog and two kids and felt completely welcome. The family room was perfect, the suburb is safe for evening walks, and Maki went above and beyond. Five stars."
