If you are a penguin lover, this is the place. We enjoyed watching these little guys walking up the street from our window and we really appreciate that we can walk to the beach with penguins within a few steps. It's much more peaceful here than the center of the Simon's Town. It's about 10-15mins walk to get to the town center, which is not a big deal on a nice day but a bit rough on a rainy day. There is not much Uber around but there is a local car company you can hire to take you to places. The apartment is very clean and very spacious.
