Wow! What a gem this apartment is. Perched just above SIMONS TOWN it nestles into the hillside with views of the bay and the surrounding mountains.
We were so warmly welcomed by lovely hosts, John and Rachel, and instantly made to feel comfortable.
The immaculate apartment was freshly aired and just perfect for the two of us. A good size bedroom with lovely linen on the bed, which was so comfortable. Plenty of cupboard space. The en- suite bathroom had a great shower and everything we needed, shampoo and soaps and fluffy towels.
The open plan kitchen had all we needed to prepare light meals, but we also enjoyed the meals at the local restaurants in the area, especially The Lighthouse Cafe and the coffee at Willets, both within walking distance.
We were able to sit out on the wooden deck early morning with our coffee and evenings with a glass of wine.
One of the many highlights was a five minute drive to see the penguins. We walked along the boardwalk and saw so many penguins with a backdrop of the most spectacular scenery. Huge boulders surrounded by the quiet aqua seawater. We had a wonderful swim at Boulders Beach. And Cape Point is a short drive away with the most amazing scenery. We didn’t manage to get to the local museums. There is so much of interest to see and do in this historical naval town..... we shall go back!!
And will definitely stay there again as it offers everything and more than we hoped for!!!
