“Had a great, relaxing time! Simon's Town is residential so the neighbourhood was very quiet”
The property was clean, tidy, and the architecture of the building was great! The building is set in a nice neighbourhood.

“Wow!”
The property is just perfect. One can see the attention to detail, we felt at home - just with the added million dollar view. The hosts Juliana and Wonderfull were the best. Juliana went out of her way (w/o us asking) to get us halaal meat options for breakfast, which was already amazing. Did I mention the view, the most amazing outlook from the rooms over the beach. Let me not mention the cute doggie behind the upstairs door :-) . Thank you to our hosts for a most wonderful stay, from the moment we arrived, till the time we had to leave (sadly).

“Really enjoyed the views and the comfortable stay”
The only problem we had was no water for our last evening and morning due to a burst pipe in the area. Fortunately for us we were leaving the next morning.
