Detailed Reviews
Lovely accommodation that has 3 units. We stayed in the top floor (2 bedrooms - one of which had a extra double bed on a mezzanine). Views from here were fabulous.
We also stayed in a one bedroomed apartment on ground floor - views slightly blocked but nothing to complain about.
House located up extremely steep hill but worth it for views

This is a very tranquil place. It is quiet and there are lovely views of the ocean. The flat is small but spacious, with lovely decor, and almost everything you could need. There are emergency lights and a gas cooker for blackouts.

The Chart Room has a good view and and is well-equipped for a couple. It is very well situated for exploration of the South Peninsula including Cape of Good Hope, Simonstown and conveniently close to Fish Hoek beach. LED lights and gas plate cover load shedding scenarios.

We had the loft apartment with amazing views from the bedrooms lounge and balcony. It was scrupulously clean and very well equipped, although we arrived two hours before the allotted check in time we were welcomed and able to leave our luggage in the apartment so that we could shop for groceries. The only bad thing was that we had only booked for a week! Would gladly stay again, thank you!

It was awesome. The apartments both were well situated and the view was beautiful. The area was peacefull and quiet. The rooms were perfect. We experience no problems with water or plumbing.
The people on the premises were very friendly. We enjoy our stay and will surely visit it again.

This was our second time booking with SimonsView and we are still very happy with the accomodation.
Lovely views, comfortably furnished which let's the place feel like a home and not just an accomodation. Also secure as far as we have experienced.

Hi Dennis,
Thank you for taking the time to have a look at Simonsview!
The Sail Loft has 2 x queen size beds, each in a separate room, as well as two single beds and an additional sleeper couch. Four people could definitely sleep comfortably there.
Please feel free to contact us with any other questions.
Kind Regards

"This is a self - catering facility and a great choice for travelers who like independence. It's tucked away in a quiet neighborhood but incredibly easy to get to anything you need if you have a car. We loved it! Just remember the sun rise starts at 4:30 a.m. in the winter in Cape Town, so shut your curtains!"Read full review
"it depends what you are after - we stayed in the loft apartment which has outside stairs and because it is at the top of the house gets a bit more wind but we loved it and would certainly go back to the loft because of the view etc. the lower ones are easier to get to but there is little or no view"Read full review
"All three rooms were excellent but the highest one was really amazing with a huge balcony overlooking the sea."Read full review
