Penguins View Guesthouse

My wife and I have travelled through to Cape Town on several occasions and generally restricted our entertainment and experiences to central Cape Town as well as the Blouberg and Melkbos areas. When planning this trip we decided to head to Simon's Town and booked into Penguin View Guesthouse and spent 3 nights in the Lighthouse Studio self- catering facility. We were greeted by the delightful owner, Heather Hurter, and walked into an incredible room which enjoys world class views of False Bay. The room was exceptionally clean and included all the necessary to make your stay comfortable, including certain self- catering equipment. The rooms are supper comfortable and also has a balcony where one can enjoy a coffee or sundowner, whilst being spoilt with a view of the best that South Africa has to offer. The world famous Boulder Beach is a short walk away as is the very quaint town center. Fishhoek and Kalk Bay are also a short drive away and as such this beautiful guesthouse is really conveniently situated. We will be back !!

From beginning communication with owner, Heather, to the warm welcome by her husband, John, our experience and stay was so enjoyable and relaxing! We enjoyed our self-catered breakfast(grocery a 5 min drive) on our private balcony, overlooking stunning False Bay and mountain range. Boulders Beach with the African penguin colony is a short walk and such fun! We highly recommend this lovely guesthouse ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️!

Our stay at Penguin Guest House was exceptional. The room was beautifully decorated, well-equipped, and comfortable. The location couldn’t have been better—just a short walk to see the penguins, and the beach was visible right from our window. The highlight of our stay was waking up to the sunrise on the balcony. Highly recommend this place.

The room was clean, neat and well maintained. The view of false bay and the boulders area is fantastic. The apartment has a kitchen area, has a braai on the patio. We would have loved to stay longer. Super place and will for sure stay there again in the future.

Good stay at Penguins guesthouse Nice place. Our room had only limited seaview which was a bit disappointing. Very nice host.

Great for penguins Beautiful room in a convenient location for the penguins and close to restaurants, shops etc. stocked with everything you need and a nice balcony. Bed was comfortable and the shower was good. Would definitely recommend.
