Wonderful for the soul! This was my second time at the house and I enjoyed it as always! I already want to come back!

Wonderlik vir die siel! Dit was my tweede keer by die huis en ek het dit vreeslik geniet soos altyd! Wil al klaar weer terugkom!

It was a time of peace and food for every sense. Wonderful stay - lovely place. Brilliant, easy, friendly reception. Neat and well equipped.

Dit was sielsrus-tyd en kos vir elke sintuig. Wonderlike kuier - lieflike plek. Briljante, maklike, vriendelike ontvangs. Netjies en goed toegerus.

Nice place to go for a relaxing weekend away from noise. We had a great time; we really enjoyed every hour of the penguin house. The sea view is to die for.

Great view, but the cleanliness and age of the house leave something to be desired. The Penguin accommodation impresses with its beautiful and incomparable view. It is a great house, but some things are quite old, worn out, and falling apart in several places. As far as cleanliness is concerned, there is a lot to be done. Some examples: on several days, we found toenails and fingernails, which is quite disgusting and, with a crawling baby, does not leave a good impression of cleanliness. There are many ant traps in the kitchen, but you still can't leave anything out – within minutes, it's swarming with ants. A tap in the bathroom with a bathtub is almost falling out of its mounting. The curtain does not cover the entire shower, so half the bathroom is flooded after showering. These are all minor issues, but unfortunately, they detract from the overall experience of this accommodation. Nevertheless, the view is very relaxing and makes up for some of the shortcomings.

Beautiful place to relax and unwind. From the moment you step through the front door, the views are spectacular. Sitting on the stoep watching the penguins and dassies was so relaxing. The house was lovely and well equipped (the addition of a washing machine would be amazing for folks that have a longer stay).

Nice and comfortable. Very nice house for a family getaway. Incredible views. Practical house with a nice lounge for a quiet family get-together. I would say all that is missing is better braai facilities.

Lekker en gemaklik. Baie lekker huis vir 'n familie wegbreek. Ongelooflike views. Praktiese huis met 'n lekker sitkamer vir 'n rustige familie kuier. Ek sou sê al wat kort is, is beter braai geriewe.

Immerse yourself in nature. Incredible location, with amazing sunrise views. Large family home, great for entertaining, but we enjoyed relaxing and being close to nature. Super fireplace, stunning views, ample toilets and sleeping options.

The penguins were awesome and the view of the ocean. Ja, dit was lekker, maar net die uitsig na die see, won't say it's worth the money! Will not go back, very disappointed! Can clean more and change the toilet seats! That blue couch, no, no, no! Please clean it or throw it away, it's dirty!
