Stunning views, beautifully decorated room and great value for money.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Penguin Palace. The views took our breath away, the room was beautifully decorated, the staff and hostess were friendly and attentive and the breakfast was delicious. A must-stay!

One of the best guest houses that we have stayed in for a long time.
Penguin Palace impressed us particularly for its exceptionally high standard of decor and the comfort of our room. Its position high above Simon's Town with stunning views of False Bay, of course, a great plus. The staff were friendly, courteous and helpful, and the breakfast a real treat. Highly recommended.
A huge thank you for the 10 out of 10-star review we really try hard so it is so appreciated when we get these fantastic reviews.
Pleases come again we love hosting people like yourself.

It was absolutely unforgettable, the view, the friendly butler, the spotlessly clean, luxurious room, the decor, the breakfast, the tranquillity. I will definitely find another reason to stay here. I will never forget my 26th wedding anniversary!
Dit was absoluut onvergeetlik, die uitsig, die vriendelike "butler", die silwerskoon, luukse kamer, die dekor, die ontbyt, die rustigheid. Ek sal absoluut weer 'n rede vind om hier tuis te gaan. My 26ste huweliksherdenking sal ek nooit vergeet nie!
What a pleasure to be able to host you on your 26th Anniversary and congratulations once again. We are so pleased that we made it special for you and that you so enjoyed your stay with us. We agree that our establishment is great for a get away and or a special occasion. We would look forward to hosting you again.

Die gasvryheid en diens van Innocent en sy assistant was uitstekend. Daar was net so bietjie van 'n reuk in die badkamer.
Good day Lionel,
Thank you for the review. We do so appreciate it and will check out the slight smell in the bathroom for which we apologise. So thank you for bringing to our attention. Glad you loved everything else though and please come again.
Maryn L - Dec 2018
Pragtig met topdiens!
Innocence is wragtig 'n puik gasheer. Kos was heerlik en die plek pragtig.

Excellent accommodation with personal attention.
We enjoyed the weekend at Penguin Palace very much. It's been a while since we were spoiled like that. It was neat, secure, close to everything. Have no negative commentary. Well done. Thank you for the personal attention.
Uitstekende verblyf met persoonlike aandag.
Ons het ons naweek by Penguin Palace baie geniet. Ons is lanklaas so bederf. Dit was netjies, veilig, naby alles. Het geen negatiewe kommentaar. Goed gedoen. Baie dankie vir die persoonlike aandag.
Thank you so much. We are so glad you enjoyed our guest house it means a lot to receive a lovely review and be appreciated.

Great location and beautiful rooms.
We spent the day in Simon's Town and decided to stay the night and what an amazing gem we found in Penguin Palace. Innocent and Gift looked after us so well, we felt very special. We enjoyed the lovely breakfast that is made to order. The only thing I can mention is that breakfast doesn't really cater to people who don't eat pork. Maybe have beef sausage as an option? Will definitely recommend this to friends and family.
Thank you so much for you review. We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us. Your suggestions have been noted, thanks again.
Oud en rommelig interieur.
Voor de prijs wordt voldoende geboden, maar keuken oud en oubollig, niet 1ster waard.
Marlé S - Jan 2018
Wat ‘n wonderlike uitsig en belewenis! Sal dit enige tyd aanbeveel! Vriendelike diens, skoon en netjies en so gerieflik!
Baai dankie for this wonderful review! So glad you enjoyed yourselves.

Lovely, thanks Nicola and team.

Pieter V - Aug 2017
'n Warm, vriendelike atmosfeer met asemroowende uitsig oor die hawe waar mens net kan ontspan en vergeet van die sorge van die alledaagse lewe!
Die ligging van die studio is so sentraal in Simonstad en nie te ver van ander bestemmings nie. Die uitsig oor die hawe en Valsbaai is onbeskryflik mooi. Die eenheid was baie netjies en duursaame afwerking het ons soos konings laat voel. Die diens is van uiterste goeie gehalte en die gasvryheid van die gasvrou onberispelik. Die eenheid is in 'n baie stil omgewing en 'n hoë graad van privaatheid is altyd deur gehandhaaf. Ons het nooit onveilig gevoel deur die dag of self as ons laat aand tuis gekom het nie. Ons sal die eenheid met vrymoedigheid vir toekomstige besoekers aan Simonstad aanbeveel. Dis die beste plek om te bly.
Many, many thanks for such a lovely review! We love our piece of paradise and so glad we could share this with you. You were also fantastic people.
Natalie V - Jun 2017
We spent 2 nights and had a wonderful time. Unit very neat, comfortable and luxurious. There were even some delicious snacks like cookies, chips, tea, coffee and milk, as well as a bottle of red wine! The view is breathtaking and it was peaceful and quiet. Nicole made us feel welcome and at home. Strongly recommended!
Ons het vir 2 aande hier gebly, en het 'n wonderlike tyd gehad. Die eenheid is baie netjies, gerieflik en luuks. Daar was selfs 'n paar lekkernye soos koekies, skyfies, tee, koffie en melk, en 'n bottel rooiwyn! Die uitsig is asemrowend, and dit was lekker stil en rustig gewees. Nicole het ons hartlik verwelkom en ons baie tuis laat voel. Hoogs aanbeveeld!
Gosh thank you so much for 'Die Lekker' review. I am so glad you enjoyed your stay with us and you were such a pleasure to host and left the room so neat and tidy...what a blessing thank you.
Welmarie S - May 2017
The studio was perfect. Breathtaking view, easy access to the Cape and safetywise and tidiness provides peace of mind.
Die studio was die perfekte verblyf met 'n asemrowende uitsig, maklike toegang tot die Kaap en wat dit bied en gemoedsrus wanneer dit by netheid en veiligheid kom.
Thank you for your lovely review and comments. It was such a pleasure meeting you both and you were the most lovely of guests. I am so glad you had a lovely stay. Stay blessed, Nicola.

View is stunning!
My husband and I celebrated our 6th anniversary. The view was absolutely stunning! The client service is excellent and I can honestly recommend Heavenly Ocean Mountain View Studio.
Uitsig is stunning!
Ek en my man het ons 6de huweliksherdenking gevier. Die view is absoluut stunning! Die kliëntediens is uitstekend en ek kan met eerlikheid Heavenly Ocean Mountain View Studio aanbeveel.
Hi Orpa, Many thanks for your lovely review. With regards to security, I would like to mention that Simons Town has been rated the safest town in South Africa plus we have a night guard that patrols our two streets in a vehicle all night just in case and we have never ever had any problems with security ever. It was so lovely hosting you and glad that you enjoyed yourselves. Thank you again, Nicola.

Accommodation was fantastically nice. Very hospitable and neat.
We had a lovely and comfortable stay. Very hospitable and convenient. The view is unbeatable. Linen and towels are changed regularly. Can be recommended.
Verblyf was fantasties lekker. Baie gasvry en netjies.
Ons het baie lekker en gerieflik gebly. Baie gasvry en gemaklik. Die uitsig is onverbeterlik. Linne en handdoeke is gereeld vervang. Aan te bevele.
Dear Japie, it was so lovely to have you both. You were such lovely guests. Thank you again. Kind regards, Nicola.
