Guest Reviews
- Manan (10/5): - Great place to stay especially for visits to boulders beach, cape point, and Chapman’s peak drive. Hosts were extremely helpful and rooms were very well furnished. Highly recommend this accommodation.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great place, friendly host and brilliant breakfast.
- Emily H. (10/5): Best Experience EVER - The hostess, Sharon, was absolutely amazing. She was kind and informative. She was always helpful and available when we needed anything. The property itself was stunning, our room was beyond anything we had imagined it would be. I would have to say that the overall experience was by far better than staying at a 5-star hotel. It was intimate, personal and I am still left feeling speechless.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - This was a beautiful property with stunning ocean views! Frank and Sharon were lovely and very helpful. The location was great; we only wish we could have stayed longer😊
- Verified traveler (10/5): Beautiful location - Property is beautiful and right by the bay - a bit of a hike from the penguins and Simon’s Town, but definitely walkable. All of the staff is very friendly and gave us great advice on things to do. The breakfast is fantastic!
- Joachim (10/5): Lovely seaside B&B - Excellent B&B along the coast road at the end of Simons Town. It’s just across the road from the ocean, so that’s good at night when there is almost no traffic on the road, but a bit load during the day when lots of cars and tour buses pass by on the way to Cape Point. Lovely gardens, common space and a nice, but small, pool. Would definetly stay here again if I find myself in the Cape Town area.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The Property was beautiful. The bedrooms and shared areas were spotlessly clean and very well appointed, with excellent views across the bay.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The property is beautiful and hospitality is beyond what we expected!
- Lydia (10/5): Highly recommended - Beautiful views and Sharon was a wonderful host. She was always on hand to offer suggestions and advice, made a lovely breakfast every morning (the freshly made blueberry muffins were divine) and made us feel very welcome. Our room was clean and had a stunning ocean view. It was also conveniently located close to Boulders beach, Cape Point and Simon's Town. We would highly recommend this wonderful guest house.
- George (10/5): - Perfect in every way. Wonderful view, nice room, and a great breakdfast with gracious hosts.
- Miriam (10/5): Beautiful guesthouse just outside of Simonstown - This guesthouse was our last stop before heading back home. We were the only guests staying that night and it was a stay to remember. The house is absolutely gorgeous and feels very homely and personal. The room was very spacious with a very large bathroom and a great rain shower. The whole house is beautifully furnished and maintained and the decoration is following the theme of "Watercolours". The view is straight onto the ocean where you can see the sun rise in the morning. Sharon, the host greeted us in the morning with a huge breakfast buffet (fruit salad, toast, granola, avocado, cheeses, nuts, quiches, croissant, jam, honey, juice, tea, coffee,....) and she was great to talk to and told us about the history of the house. The guesthouse is only a short drive from the center of Simonstown and close to Cape of Good Hope. Secure parking is available and wifi connection is good. Bed is very comfortable and a big fridge is in the room. Definitely a place that I can highly recommend.
- liz (10/5): Perfect getaway - Perfect spot for a relaxing getaway. Pool literally overlooks the ocean and is the perfect place to unwind. Beautiful room with everything you need and again a view right over the ocean. Sharon is so welcoming and serves up the most delicious breakfast.
- elaine (10/5): Sharon plus Watercolors equal stupendous - A true Privilege to experience SHaron’s hospitality combined with Gary's taste in design and furnishings. A convivial gourmet breakfast with other guests topped it all off. Quite amazing, actually to have had this privilege.
- Alan (10/5): Superb Watercolours - Watercolours is outstanding. The position, decor, spacious spotless rooms, pool, breakfasts and above all the wonderful Sharon to welcome and who goes to endless trouble to advise on restaurants, places to visit and provides maps. We rated Watercolours by far the best B and B we stayed in during our holiday.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Great host, lovely place, fab views...Very close to amazing Cape Point and the Cape of Good Hope
- kevin (10/5): Traveller from Toronto - Room #Aqua , lovely sea view, nice garden, close to Cape of good hope. B&B style
- Verified traveler (10/5): What a fantastic view! - We stayed at Watercolours for one night and were welcomed warmly by the host and shown to a room with a spectacular sea view. The room was very spacious, clean and nicely decorated. Breakfast was great, served around a comunnal table encouraging travellers to chat and share stories!
- Lauren A. (10/5): Wonderful! - We loved our stay at Watercolours B&B! It's a perfect spot to stay if you are traveling to Boulders Beach to see the penguins or Cape Point. The town is also pretty quaint, and gets quiet at night, so a great place to relax and hear the sounds of the waves. The breakfast Sharon makes in the morning is outstanding! I couldn't believe it! I shared pictures on social media and my friends couldn't believe that it's included in your stay. Also, the way she presents it makes you feel like you are at a gourmet restaurant. She also has 2 sweet dogs on the property, which we loved because we missed ours back at home. I would definitely recommend staying here my friends and family.
- Mr Mark (10/5): Excellent hospitality in beautiful property - Excellent stay with very great hospitality from owners. Great room with open front view to bay.
- Bridget (10/5): Awesome!! - The house is gorgeous, the view is spectacular, the breakfast is delicious and the area is lovely!! No complaints at all!! This a very relaxing place to stay, plenty of privacy for a B&B but also very enjoyable conversation with the host. It's not walkable to town though so having a car is recommended. If you are looking for a place to slow down and enjoy this is definitely it!!!
