We absolutely loved staying directly next to the penguins! It was lovely being able to leave the car and just wander down the beach to see the penguins. When we got back to the guesthouse, there was a penguin standing next to our front steps! There were also penguins in the parking lot, and at night you could hear them on the beach. I would definitely stay here again, all the rooms were very tidy and decorated very nicely, each with individual touches. Thank you so much!
