Best Experience EVER
The hostess, Sharon, was absolutely amazing. She was kind and informative. She was always helpful and available when we needed anything. The property itself was stunning, our room was beyond anything we had imagined it would be. I would have to say that the overall experience was by far better than staying at a 5-star hotel. It was intimate, personal and I am still left feeling speechless.

Beautiful location
Property is beautiful and right by the bay - a bit of a hike from the penguins and Simon’s Town, but definitely walkable. All of the staff is very friendly and gave us great advice on things to do. The breakfast is fantastic!

Lovely seaside B&B
Excellent B&B along the coast road at the end of Simons Town. It’s just across the road from the ocean, so that’s good at night when there is almost no traffic on the road, but a bit load during the day when lots of cars and tour buses pass by on the way to Cape Point. Lovely gardens, common space and a nice, but small, pool. Would definetly stay here again if I find myself in the Cape Town area.

Schitterend uitzicht op zee, smaakvolle inrichting, heerlijk ontbijt en een uitstekende persoonlijke service door Sharon, de gastvrouw. Haar hulp en tips waren goud waard.

6/10 Good

Could have been better, poor choice
We have been staying there for 4 nights and we need to say Sharon is a great host and very polite, sweet owner of the house. However our room was supposed to be „luxurious” and the property „just at the beach” which it was not. The rooms were clean with nice sea view, there was literally only one plug we could put in the charger, there was no AC(!!!) which is essential especially during summer. The breakfast was everyday the same and consisted of small fruit salad with yoghurt and some cheese with ham. The property is situated just at the main road with all the buses and cars going to and from the Cape of Good Hope, so it can get very noisy day and night, especially when you lay down at the „infinity pool” overlooking the road in the first place. In Simons town there is nothing to do, especially all the restaurants and bars close at 4pm during the week, so there is no chance of grabing sth to eat for dinner without leaving the town. We decided to stay here instead of Camps Bay or Clifton and it was a mistake, those areas are far better than watercolours house. We expected more for this price, value/money ratio very poor and a lot to improve. Don’t be mistaken by the word „luxurious” - it’s not. We stayed at other guesthouses in SA before and this one was the worst.

Highly recommended
Beautiful views and Sharon was a wonderful host. She was always on hand to offer suggestions and advice, made a lovely breakfast every morning (the freshly made blueberry muffins were divine) and made us feel very welcome. Our room was clean and had a stunning ocean view. It was also conveniently located close to Boulders beach, Cape Point and Simon's Town. We would highly recommend this wonderful guest house.

Beautiful guesthouse just outside of Simonstown
This guesthouse was our last stop before heading back home. We were the only guests staying that night and it was a stay to remember. The house is absolutely gorgeous and feels very homely and personal. The room was very spacious with a very large bathroom and a great rain shower. The whole house is beautifully furnished and maintained and the decoration is following the theme of "Watercolours". The view is straight onto the ocean where you can see the sun rise in the morning. Sharon, the host greeted us in the morning with a huge breakfast buffet (fruit salad, toast, granola, avocado, cheeses, nuts, quiches, croissant, jam, honey, juice, tea, coffee,....) and she was great to talk to and told us about the history of the house. The guesthouse is only a short drive from the center of Simonstown and close to Cape of Good Hope. Secure parking is available and wifi connection is good. Bed is very comfortable and a big fridge is in the room. Definitely a place that I can highly recommend.
