Just left Casa Delfina two days ago and already missing the place and Richard our Host.
My boyfriend and i are from Mauritius and it was our first journey to Cape Town. We were a little bite disorganised but Richard did everything he could to help us understand and get through. He is like a caring farther guiding us all the way. He is very lifely, he gives useful advice. We had African braai together with another guest which was like friends gathering around a bbq. that was awesome to feel so at ease with him. Richard is someone one can learn a lot from. He has nice and sometimes surprising anecdotes as he travelled a lot, even to Mauritius our Homeland. As an Host, we could not have expected anyone better. Thanks a lot.
And as for the place ... The studio is exactly what is looks like on the pictures. Therefore when getting in the first time we had the feeling of having been there.
It is equiped just like a house. the studio is very clean and tiddy, very comfortable, just like a dream house.
As for the location, Simon's Town is awesome. very cosy, very touristy, lot's of great café and restaurants. Richard gave us some usefull advice about those.
One can also visit the different museums there. The studio is located at a walking distance to boulder's beach famous for its pinguins.
It was just wonderful waking up seeing the altantic ocean the sound of the waves gives a sweet waking up and delicious melody to falling asleep.
We were also amazed by the little electrical yellow train coming and going. The navy boats and submarine. And it was surprising to see such a scene and not hearing any noise.
Casa Delfina is a very quiet place. perfect for couples.
