We spent two days in Dean and Hilary’s beautiful Deck Suite. It is a calm and tastefully decorated space with a stunning view of the sea and mountains. Tucked up against the mountainside it is quiet and restful. Their place is superbly situated just outside the main tourist centers. It was only a short drive to Simonstown, Fish Hoek and Kalk Bay which offer an eclectic mix of restaurants, shops, harbor, a theatre and coastline with little bays and walks. The highlight for us was visiting the penguin colony. Just 5 minutes drive from their place is a shopping center with restaurants and supermarkets. Their space is well equipped with the basics, good quality crockery and linen. Dean and Hilary were warm and friendly, extremely easy to chat with and attentive but not intrusive. Dean kept excellent contact with us before and during our stay and gave us great restaurant tips. We could not have asked for better hosts! We can highly recommend their special space for locals who want a nearby getaway as we did, and for travelers who want to explore this awesome spot. We loved it!
