Reviews
We had a lovely stay . The accommodation was excellent. The view was amazing. It was close to shops and restaurants and a medical centre. . Central to everything
It's a perfect place to of load, kick back and relax!! It a place were you want to get up early, make a cup of coffee and sit one the "Stoep" and watch the sun rise! And end it of with a glass of wine in the same spot!!
Felsensicht is a beautiful home with the most exquisite views imaginable. On a clear day you can see almost the whole of False Bay and sometimes you're rewarded with views of whales blowing and romping right in front of your veranda! The home is comfortable and has everything you need. The furnishings are tasteful and you feel like you've come home. The property is extremely well maintained and the wonderful gentleman who welcomes you and takes care of your needs is an absolute delight. The owners also go out of their way to ensure that you have a fabulous stay. There are lots of brochures and suggestions of things to do and places to visit. I would highly recommend this holiday home. It's very close to Cape Point Nature Reserve where the walks and views are spectacular; the wine farms of Constantia and Stellenbosch and surrounds are easily accessible; there are lovely restaurants (try the Harbour House) and coffee shops with croissants that are to die for; Chapman's Peak Drive and the famous Chapman's Peak Hotel (the calamari is legendary) are also very accessible. And of course the area offers so much more to explore - prepare to return many a time!
I recently stayed in your home with Johan de Bruyn, his wife and some friends from Ireland. I just want to say a personal thank you to you. I had the most relaxing few days with a little hiking thrown in just to remind me life isn't always a lazy day on the beach. The wonderful views and precious memories will stay with me wherever I journey. You have a beautiful home and I thank you for sharing it with us.
Thanks to your lovely witty Caretaker too.
Kind regards

We had a wonderful stay at Felsensicht during our son's recuperation from a back operation. The house itself is well situated with beautiful views from the bedrooms, bath (!), and balconies on two levels. It is beautifully furnished, comfortable, spacious, well equipped and peaceful. Simon's Town is a lovely village with no big franchised shops to spoil the atmosphere. Altogether a wonderful house which we'd like to return to in the future. It was a pleasure to book through Gail who took a personal interest in our well-being; and the caretaker, Jim, was organized and extremely pleasant to work with.

Simon's Town Reviews
The vibe...the view...the food
The beautiful view.
5 stars from me, amazing people, amazing view and such a small and intimate place!!!
LOVE SIMONSTOWN!
The buzz and quaintness.
The quaintness, cleanliness and lovely places to walk around.
It really is a must see town, there is a scratch patch with the most beautiful stones. Boulders beach is a fantastic spot to relax and enjoy the penguins and plenty of shops to browse, plus a very nice yacht club with plenty of spots to choose from to grab something to eat.
Everything is central.
The quiet tranquility :-)
The town itself is amazing, historical and quaint. The view of the bay and the beach were breathtaking.
