Guest Houses in Simonʼs Town

Heather and her husband were wonderful hosts. We felt welcome from the first moment. The apartment is nicely located on top of a hill. It is just a 5 minutes walk to see the penguins. The apartment had everything we needed, it is very well equipped for cooking and for BBQ. The internet was very good. Our kids loved the pool. We had a wonderful time.

We had the pleasure of spending one night at Residence William French in March. From the moment we arrived Primrose made us feel at home and did everything in her power to make our stay special. Dinner was a very romantic affair and the food was excellent. The Blue Room was stunning, every piece of furniture bespoke, large spacious bed with luxurious linen and the most magnificent views!

The location was fantastic. Aqua Terra Boutique Guesthouse is up a steep hill that's slightly tricky to drive, but the views make it totally worth it. Its within a gated compound, so its totally secure. Garth and Natalie are the most amazing hosts. Lovely conversationalists and happy to help with recommendations and so many other things. Staying here at Aqua Terra Guest House, felt like we were staying with friends rather than just a B&B. The view! Oh my God, what can I say about it? It has to be seen to be experienced, photographs can't capture the magnificence. They have a lovely sit out area near the pool if its too chilly to get in the water itself. We had the most amazing hot breakfasts here with everything cooked to order. Our car was absolutely caked with mud, since we had driven through Knysna forest in the rain before arriving at Simons Town. We had planned to get it professionally washed in town, but when we returned in the morning for breakfast after a morning beach trip, a member of staff actually carried multiple buckets of water up flights of stairs and cleaned our mud encrusted car and had it shining almost like new! That was above and beyond any expectations we have ever had of any B&B. Garth & Natalie, you and your staff have set the bar so high, no other place is ever going to come close enough to match it. We absolutely loved spending a couple of days in Simons Town, we got to reach the penguins way before the tourist buses from Cape Town arrived and so we were able to spend hours with the penguins with no one else around and actually just observe their natural behaviour without any other distractions. Zora their dog is a darling. She is an outdoor dog, extremely well behaved who can be gentle as a butterfly, but can also be the fiercest watchdog ever!

A Boat House stands out as the loveliest bed and breakfast I've ever experienced. Amanda and Walter, our hosts, were exceptionally warm and accommodating, creating a truly homely atmosphere. I wholeheartedly recommend this place for those seeking a tranquil and snug retreat.

It's one of the best places we stayed in SA. It's like home away from home. Many thanks to Gillian who makes this place a special one! Very close to all the sightseeings in the area. Fantastic views, location is perfect, delicious breakfasts, cozy rooms, friendly dogs - we loved everything about this place and will definitely come back!

Jennifer South Africa

The hostess was very friendly and welcoming The breakfast was excellent, especially the variety of options to choose from and very well prepared Incredible views from my room and a very comfortable bed The room was very well equipped with a small kitchenette (sink microwave, cutlery and crockery) so I had everything I could need. The bottom gate access is very convenient given that the building is 2 storeys built on the embankment. I also appreciated that I could leave my bag at reception for a short while after check out so I could do a few things before I left Simon's Town

This establishment is very centrally located in Simons Town is a very safe area. We had a beautify sea view apartment with two bedrooms and a large full bathroom with shower and bath tub. We could park our car on street level without any worries. The apartment is clean, well-equipped and luxurious. The hosts were friendly and helpful. They went out of the way to accommodate our need to store our luggage for two nights between stays. They even do the dishes for us. We can definitely recommend this place and will be staying there again when we go to Simons Town.

The host (Dean) was super amazing! He gave us tips of restaurants offering discounts around the area. The place was immaculate with notes of exquisite deco taste! It was quite refreshing. Highly recommend
