“Highly recommended”
The apartment is very clean, very well furnished, and very functional for families with children, in front of a small park and 100m away from the beach. Kirsty made our stay wonderful, i can't recommend this place enough.

“A perfect place to stay”
Kirsty was the perfect host. She was very warm, gave us the warmest welcome and was available whenever we needed advice or information. She had put a lot of thought into making our stay a.success. The apartment is tastefully decorated and furnished, it is very well equipped and we couldn't have asked for more. We'd highly recommend it.

“The most beautiful apartment 3 minutes from the penguins”
This is one of the best places I've stayed at. Everything was incredible from the greeting by the lovely host to the surrounding areas (3-minute walk to the penguins). You could cook in the apartment and it was brilliantly equipped. The terrace was stunning with great views (photos attached). The bedrooms were extremely quiet with blackout curtains and massive comfy beds. The bath was great too. Highly recommend.

“Penguin Paradise a perfect stay.”
There was nothing I didn't like. The apartment was spotless and had every amenity I could think of. They even thought of a picnic basket, even though we didn't have a picnic it would have been handy if we did. It couldn't be in a better location for penguin viewing and swimming at the most amazing beaches. Boulders is a stone's throw away and also Seaforth beach. The hostess Kirsty was extremely friendly and accommodating, making us feel welcome and being proximate to the apartment in case we needed anything.
