    breathtaking view

    Recommend it for families on a peaceful break

    I had a wonderful time enjoying the spectacular views from my room's balcony, sipping sherry while watching the waves crash below. The breakfast was off the charts, they even offered me extra mushrooms, I mean, who does that? It’s those little things, you know.

    It wasn't cheap, but still reasonable given the luxury experience.

    panoramic views
    delicious breakfast

    breathtaking, breathtaking, breathtaking

    The panoramic views from my room's balcony were absolutely stunning, allowing me to enjoy spectacular sunrises right from bed. I loved the spacious, well-equipped kitchenette, which made our stay extra comfortable. Breakfast was a highlight, featuring an impressive Continental buffet and delicious hot dishes like the 'Pekish Penguin' with potato rosti, smoked salmon, and poached egg.

    totally recommend ❤️🌊

    smoking issue
    dining inconvenience
    initial terrace dining problem

    Stunning views of the harbor were a highlight during my stay, complemented by attentive staff who were eager to assist. The spacious luxury studio with a balcony made for a comfortable escape. Breakfast was a delight, especially the fresh fruit and croissants, although it was unfortunate that smoking was allowed on outside balconies, which impacted our dining experience on the terrace initially.

    comfortable bed
    friendly atmosphere

    Spent a night on the mountainside. The sea views from the balcony were striking, and the large bed was comfortable. Nandi's warm welcome made a great impression. We had to leave before breakfast, so I cannot comment on that. the experience was highly satisfactory, and I appreciate the friendly atmosphere.

    check-in process

    Staying at the guesthouse was the highlight of our family trip! The views of the sea were breathtaking, and we enjoyed breakfast on the balcony every morning. We also loved being close to the Simon's Town Waterfront Centre, where we explored shopping and boat charters.

    My wife says that the check-in could have been smoother.

    I had a delightful stay at Mariner Guesthouse & Villa. The breathtaking views of Simon's Town from my beautifully furnished room were truly special. The staff were exceptionally welcoming and attentive, making me feel right at home. Breakfast, especially the waffles with vanilla yogurt, was a delicious treat.

    Stunning views and a delightful breakfast experience

    I recently had the pleasure of staying here with my family and was absolutely taken with the breathtaking views of Simon's Town from our room. Every morning, we indulged in a delightful breakfast featuring fresh fruit and a choice of three hot dishes, which made every morning feel special. The location was perfect for exploring the area and the staff were incredibly helpful in assisting us with planning our outings. A minor note, there were quite a few steps, which might be challenging with mobility issues.
