"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. "

"The place is lovely, and the cottage was very charming, but I felt like the place needed a better clean, especially considering the price. The drying rack in the kitchen had a grime build-up, and the shower floor was quite grubby. I also noticed some hair on the floor under one of the beds, and the vase was hiding an ant family that came out during the night. The sofa could also do with an update, as the seat cushions were really misshapened, and not comfortable to sit on. Otherwise, it's a...

Residence William French
10/10 Excellent
"Absolutely exquisite! Every detail is divine. The breakfast is of the highest quality. Unlike any other place I’ve stayed. William, Kate and the staff make you feel at home and that home is elegant and cozy. And the view is everything. Perfect location in between Cape Point and Muizenberg beach. A few minutes drive from Boulders beach. Highly recommend Residence William French! "

Boulders Beach Hotel, Cafe and Curio
10/10 Excellent
"This cozy property was conveniently located right at Boulders Beach with easy access to the beach and penguins waddling through the parking lot at sunrise. Parking was a little crowded during the day but cleared out in the evening. The on-site restaurant offered tasty dinner and we were always met with friendly staff. We were also an easy drive from Simon's Town for other food options. Cape Point was a bit of a drive, maybe 45 minutes but made for an excellent day outing!
The room was clean with a well-stocked kitchenette, nice shower, and warm blankets for the chilly weather we encountered. Overall, a very lovely place to stay!"
Penguins View Guesthouse
10/10 Excellent
"Lovely stay in a lovely place, without doubt one of the best views we have enjoyed in accommodation anywhere. Hosts are very hands off and that was fine as we didn't need anything. There is no lift to the property which might be an issue for an older or weaker peron but I am sure they would have helped and there is an asistant always around if you needed"
Magellans Hotel

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."
