What guests loved the most

“Amazing view, great staff and very welcoming, very close to the pinguains view, sad we had onlt one night. ”

, Israel

“The staff, Jackson and Gerard, was simply terrific.”

, USA

“Personal attention, making sure our needs were met, with our scheduling and need of a driver. The breakfast provided was excellent! Presented beautifully hot when it's supposed to be hot and cold when it's supposed to be cold. we truly felt like we were the only two guests there. The honesty bar was a big hit.”

, USA

“Beautiful setting; friendly and helpful staff. An absolute gem of a find.”

, United Kingdom

“Great breakfast, clean and comfortable room, beautiful sea view.”

, Czech Republic

“Breakfast was excellent and the beach across the road a real bonus”

, United Kingdom

“The guesthouse is in a wonderful position, looking out over the ocean and with a small sandy cove beneath it - almost a private beach. It is within short walking distance of the Boulders Bay penguins and only a short drive from Cape Point. Public areas are spacious and tastefully decorated, with an African theme. The staff and owner are extremely friendly and helpful and breakfast was excellent. We were lucky that an evening meal was available when we were there, though this is usually not the case. It was also excellent - the main course lamb shank was possibly the best I've tasted. There is an extremely well stocked honesty bar, which obviates the need for a minibar in the room (and means no noisy fridge during the night) and there is a fridge on the landing for your own stuff. Our room and balcony looked out over the sea and was very comfortable.”

, United Kingdom

“Staff very professional and friendly, brilliant views from the room, all the extras - coffee machine in room etc. Fantastic breakfast, homely feel.”
