"The Mariner’s room had an incredible view over Simon’s Town harbor, was extra comfortable and clean. The breakfast was very good and the location is away from traffic while 2 minutes drive to the waterfront and restaurants. Just mind the stairs to access the rooms, not for everyone."
"I recently stayed at Penguins View Guesthouse and couldn't have been more pleased. The views from the property are absolutely breathtaking—perfect for morning coffee or a sunset wind-down. The bed was incredibly comfortable, making it easy to relax and recharge. One of the best parts? It's just a short walk to the famous penguin beach! Waking up and strolling over to watch the penguins in their natural habitat was a highlight of the trip. Highly recommend this guesthouse for anyone visiting the area!"

The one thing they do not advertise is the beautiful view at night with the Moon on your balcony .
everything you could need was available , will definitely be adding them to my list of returns :) "

"We loved the house. The layout was perfect for two couples. Spacious living spaces and light poured in everywhere: so it was lovely to hang out in all the rooms.
Comfortable beds and couches and Laurette responded within minutes when we had questions"
