"Exceptional"

10.0

Die Lage ist spektakulär, wunderbare Aussicht auf den Hafen und das Meer. Sehr herzlicher Empfang, leckeres Frühstück und Parkplatz vor der Unterkunft. Sehr sauber und geschmackvoll eingerichtet, wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Simons town und boulder beach easy erreichbar, allerdings zu Fuß über viele Treppen

"Groot en geweldige service"

10.0

De service is heel vriendelijk en meedenkend. Ik kreeg veel beter advies dan ik zelf had kunnen plannen en ook mijn vervoer werd helemaal voor mij geregeld! Het ontbijt is heel lekker en van alles te kiezen, met prachtig uitzicht over de baai. Het bed is heel groot, net als de kamer - met bank, balkon, keukentje, grote kasten. De marmeren uitstraling in de gedeelde ruimte is heel mooi en alles is mooi ingericht. Als je de trappen naar beneden neemt, ben je zo in de winkelstraat van Simon's Town. Boulder's Beach is een must-see en Saveur is een geweldig restaurant.

"A wonderful place to conclude our South Africa trip"

9.0

I can higly recommend this place. So awesome view on the bay from Simons town towards Muitzenberg. Very nice and calm neighborhood. The breakfast is also outstanding. Try the beef jaffle! Our room was the "suite", so it was really big, with a little kitchen! VERY comfortable beds! We really loved the place!

The only thing, when Mariner is fully booked (it was not at our stay), you might hear some noise from the living room. In our case it was not a problem at all.

"Exceptional"

10.0

The Mariner’s room had an incredible view over Simon’s Town harbor, was extra comfortable and clean. The breakfast was very good and the location is away from traffic while 2 minutes drive to the waterfront and restaurants. Just mind the stairs to access the rooms, not for everyone.

"Fun family stay with amazing view of the Simon’s Town Harbour."

10.0

Mandy was a wonderful host who made sure we were always happy. The location is central, the property is safe and has great views. The room is spacious and has all the amenities you will need. Great for self catering or B&B stays. We loved having two separate rooms for the kids and ourselves. We will love to come back.

There are lots of stairs but it is great for exercise.

"Cozy apartment in Simon's town"

9.0

Location is close to Simon's town. Very cozy and nice view. They took care of the cleaning and they did it well. Safe area and we'll secured. The place is on an uphill which i enjoyed a lot, it makes a very good exercise. Very friendly and cooperative staff and helpful owner. I lost my charger and they immediately sent it me.

Some of the electric plugs (UK) had a malfunction, i couldn't plug the charger.

"Amazing stay with breathtaking views and excelent hospitality"

10.0

My stay here for two weeks was absolutely excellent. The most beautiful views are from the dining room and lounge areas, as well as my room! It was peaceful, relaxing and soothing. The staff, and in particular Mandy, did everything possible to make this a pleasant stay, and I would certainly come back again. Although some people did walk to the restaurants, that was a bit too much of a stretch for me. Driving there was, however, very easy. Also going to the place where you can watch the penguins, Cape Point and the lovely Mall on your way from Muizenberg to Cape Town. They also provided me with excellent recommendations when I did not want to use my own transport. It was a joy to go down for breakfast in the morning or sit in the lounge at the fireplace catching up on a bit of work, and then going out for a while. Overall, I found Mariner exceptionally supportive in how they accommodate the needs of guests.

Nothing - I wish I could stay longer and would love to return on my own or with family members.
