    This place is beautifully designed and in a safe area with a central location near the parks at the Cape of Good Hope and the Western Cape, which I loved.

    I had an absolutely fantastic experience staying at Penguinden. The luxury family apartment with a sea view had spacious rooms, excellent cleanliness, and beautiful flowers around the property. One major plus was the convenience of having a washing machine in the room, allowing me to do my own laundry. The large windows in the living room and master bedroom provided stunning views of the sunset and added to the overall ambiance of the accommodation. The owner was incredibly helpful, providing great tips for exploring the area and making sure my stay was unforgettable. If you're visiting the region, don't hesitate to book at Penguinden.

    Nothing that I didn't like. 😊

    We had a wonderful stay at this luxurious hotel nestled near the coast. The location was perfect, as it was just a stone's throw away from the beach and within walking distance of great restaurants. Additionally, it was conveniently close to all the attractions at the Cape. The service at this hotel was top-notch, with housekeeping taking care of all our needs. The room amenities were excellent, with air conditioning and a comfortable sitting area. We especially enjoyed the terrace and patio, where we could relax and take in the stunning views. Furthermore, the hotel offered a range of leisure facilities including a jacuzzi, beach access, and BBQ facilities, ensuring that we had a truly enjoyable stay.

    We absolutely recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a luxurious and comfortable stay.

    I had an amazing stay at this hotel, especially considering the price. The value for money was exceptional, and the room was great with a perfect view of the sea. The large and well-equipped kitchen was a bonus, making it perfect for longer stays or self-catering. The location was also ideal, close to all the attractions and within walking distance of good restaurants. The staff were welcoming and accommodating, and the basic amenities were top-notch. But what truly stood out were the rooms with huge windows that offered a spectacular view of the sea from any direction. It was truly a treat to wake up to such a stunning sight.

    Everything was perfect, nothing to improve.

    We were excited to explore the area by foot as the location was fantastic, with plenty of options for dining and leisurely strolls. There were loads of attractions only a short drive away and the beach was just around the corner. Our room had such a lovely view - facilities and cleanliness were top-notch.

    This place did not provide accessibility for all guests to enjoy, which was quite disappointing.
