This was probably the best Airbnb we stayed in. It was exactly as described/pictured.
It’s a relatively small place (as described) but had everything we needed. Despite the summer heat the room doesn’t get extremely hot and it’s easy to cool it off when opening the windows.
The penguins are only a 5 min walk away but don’t just come here for the penguins. We stayed 5 nights and were sad to leave, because there was still so much to do. Simon’s is perfectly located so that everything on the cape peninsula is only a 30 min drive away (45 min into the cpt city centre) in retrospect we much rather stayed here longer than moving to an Airbnb in the city. We were also able to park our small rental inside the gates but there’s plenty of parking anywhere and it’s a pretty safe area.
Jo-Anne truly deserve the title of super host. She gave us lots of recommendations and insider tips. She also provided a lot of reading material about activities on the entire cape peninsula.
We will come back!
