“A beautiful and well-maintained property with warm and welcoming hosts!”
The property is beautiful and very well-maintained. We enjoyed delicious breakfasts overlooking amazing views. Our hosts even accommodated our dinner requests, where we were treated to hot home-cooked meals. We enjoyed the lovely walks, viewed penguins and enjoyed the main town nearby.

“Amazing.”
Firstly, the communication from Nicole before arrival was outstanding. The property is central, spotless and all the staff so helpful. The patio/pool area is a fantastic place to relax in the evening and the accommodation very well equipped and the beds are so comfortable. Breakfast on the veranda was such a great way to start the day. The restaurants in town are a 20 minute stroll away.

“An excellent, comfortable B&B with very friendly and helpful staff in a great location.”
The friendliness and adaptability of the staff was exceptional, fitting the delicious breakfast around my schedule and giving advice on the local area. Its a lovely building with great views in the perfect location for the penuin colony, shark trips and the Cape of Good Hope National Park.

“Pity one cannot give 15,0 points here”
After travelling through various parts of Africa for a few months, this was the crowning glory of my trip and definitely one of the most comfortable and cozy guesthouses I ever stayed at. - The place is extremely well-kept (clearly by someone who has a loving eye for detail), peaceful, quiet, spacious and just oozes character. - My room was very cozy and came complete with a kitchenette that was better equipped than the kitchens I've seen in many holiday cottages (complementary biscuits and chocolate too!). - As if that was not enough, you get glorious sea views, a very cozy and quirky bar (though I didn't use it) and a delicious and very generous breakfast that's a visual as well as a gastronomic delight. - Location is excellent (penguins in easy walking distance) - The ladies running the place are extremely warm, welcoming hostesses who not only provided more-than-perfect, super-professional service but really made me feel at home.
