This guest house was exactly what we were hoping for — quiet, convenient, easy, and relaxing. Room was very clean and comfortable, with nice amenities. Onsite parking so appreciated. The included breakfast was robust and very good, and enjoyed with a great view. Loved that we could easily walk to the Main Street, restaurants, to Boulders Beach for penguins; and it is an easy drive to the national park. Jonathan and staff were welcoming, very helpful and accommodating. We would have loved to stay longer …

Disliked: Staff & service
Overall experience felt like staying at a hostel than a guesthouse. I partially felt uncomfortable at the reception. The checkout morning we went to the beach and we’re back 40 minutes before the checkout time. But the lady told us that we disappeared without “letting her know”… it was weird and uncomfortable to receive such comment. And we checked out at 10:30

Awesome location and views. The bed is super-comfy! Staff very friendly and polite. A nice but not-too-distant walk into the heart of Simonstown. Breakfast cooked from scratch so fresh from the stove onto your plate. Overall very nice. Highly recommended.
