"William and his crew were very welcoming and we loved the dogs!
The driveway is a bit steep and there is no signage, so we were kind of confused when we first pulled in but the directions were on point.
Beautiful home and view. We left before breakfast but were given delicious croissants to take with us.
Would stay here again. "

"A very welcoming hotel in the middle of Fish Hoek. All the staff we met could not do enough for us. Although there is no restaurant, The Peak coffee shop at 50m was great."

Mariner Guesthouse
10/10 Excellent
"The Mariner’s room had an incredible view over Simon’s Town harbor, was extra comfortable and clean. The breakfast was very good and the location is away from traffic while 2 minutes drive to the waterfront and restaurants. Just mind the stairs to access the rooms, not for everyone."
"Met on arrival and the place is wonderful. Any minor issues during our stay were addressed by the property agent straight away. It’s a great location with loads to do on your doorstep. Just perfect. "
"I recently stayed at Penguins View Guesthouse and couldn't have been more pleased. The views from the property are absolutely breathtaking—perfect for morning coffee or a sunset wind-down. The bed was incredibly comfortable, making it easy to relax and recharge. One of the best parts? It's just a short walk to the famous penguin beach! Waking up and strolling over to watch the penguins in their natural habitat was a highlight of the trip. Highly recommend this guesthouse for anyone visiting the area!"
"Spotless rooms, piping hot showers and a gorgeous view of the ocean while eating a delicious cooked breakfast. I had a lovely time staying at Magellans Hotel. A big thank you to the kind and helpful staff, who were bravely chasing off a troop of baboons as I arrived!"
"Was pleasantly surprised to find the Villa to be as warm and welcoming as depicted in the pictures .
Our Host Sue personally welcomed us made sure we felt at home.
The one thing they do not advertise is the beautiful view at night with the Moon on your balcony .
everything you could need was available , will definitely be adding them to my list of returns :) "
