The Host Elsa is amazing and she squared away with a misunderstanding of reservation gracefully. The environment where the house is situated is spectacular. We enjoy our stay greatly.

2/10 Poor

Rude horrible management
This was probably the worst guesthouse experience I have ever had. Absolute lack of service and lack of respect. There was an issue with the TV in our room and Elsa was not at all useful when i asked for assistance. She refused for me to change rooms although we where the only guests there. Instead she sent a message to my husband saying to let me know that there is more to life than watching TV! Insane behavior. When i asked for later check out so we could have a little more time she told me not to interfere with her business and accused me of throwing stones because I complained. She was rude and disrespectful she made my 10 year old daughter and i feel uncomfortable and unwelcome. Safe to say i did not check out early, I packed and left with my daughter as soon as possible. I would not recommend this guesthouse to any one and it is a real pity as the location and rooms are beautiful but Elsa made my brief stay a horrible experience and this needs to be addressed.

8/10 Very good

Great location & staff but no Internet in the room
Two days in a window room at 1st floor. The view from the bed and a chair is spectacular. The brake is well served and presented. We had a diner that was nice too. The weak points are that they officer internet and Cable tv at the room that were it available. Internet only at the dining room and TV at the hotel living room. They provide un afte our request a package of films for the room. How’d we they shouldn’t advertise tv cable and internet at your room . If this is no an issue for you, go ahead. Moreover you have spectacular beach in front of the house and penguins are at walking distance. Very pleasant. Last bit not least, the manager booked for a us a retainer at Inter city for Christmas Day they was very good.

6/10 Good

Great views; average hotel
Overall a pleasant place to stay on the main road just outside of Simonstown central district with glorious views and a little beach across the street. We could walk to Boulders Beach to see penguins. A nice breakfast served on the terrace in the morning. Helpful owner on site in the morning. There is no generator - so we were two hours in darkness during load shedding (with one battery charged light). We could not get an Uber at night to take us into town and no food near hotel itself. Steep steps up to front entrance and room with no one to help with bags upon our arrival. Some stains on the bedsheets. A basic room. We would qualify this as a two star hotel.

Good location with ok facilities
We stayed at Whale View Manor to mainly go to the boulders beach to view the penguins. Our family enjoyed our time there but the hotel is pretty basic and rooms are a bit small.
