This is a great property for penguin spotting as the penguins were right outside the property after the carpark. The front desk and cafe at the property will close after 5pm though so you need to ubereats or drive out for dinner. It can be very dark outside and the property is not enclosed so strangers can come to your room, so do remember to lock your door. This property has no AC and one small portable fan is provided in the room. The room can get stuffy in Summer. Property has no carpark of its own so you need to park your car outside the property which is an open public carpark. So park at your vehicle at your risk.

Lovely place to stay. Comfortable. Many stairs. Vehicle required, but parking is limited. Be very careful to not park in the lower lot, as it is chained at a very early hour in the evening, and you will not be able to access your vehicle until morning.

Solo Traveler. I really like this property and I think it has a lot of potential. I only stayed one night, but it brought back memories I had as a child traveling in Northern California. What I Liked: (1) Staff (2) Ambience Vibe (3) Views and Penguins. What are some issues: (1) No Liquor License although as of this date the property is applying for one, and hopefully when that is issued they will keep the restaurant open in the evening. (2) Noise. It does not bother me, but the nature of the property is such that you can hear everything other guests are doing. There are "Quiet Zone" signs, but even so, if you are a light sleeper this Hotel may not be for you. (3) For my room at least, the bathrooms need to be upgraded. Overall a great experience and a good value. I would stay again.

You can't get any closer to the penguins than this
The rooms and staff are nice, but what puts this hotel far ahead of any other is its adjacency to the penguins. Getting out to see them early in the morning is easy because the path is right there, and even better is the nighttime, when penguins cross the parking lot to go up to their spaces in town!

Great little hidden gem
Very basic accommodation but location is perfect, right in boulders beach. Staff are super friendly, communal fridge to store drinks and food. Rooms do not have a fridge or Tv. U can take your own drinks and have take aways on the stunning veranda and watch the sunset. The receptionist Cailin is so professional.

Penguin Paradise
The delightful penguins that waddle all around this lodge make this a a unique place to stay. The staff are friendly and helpful. For example, the General Manager volunteered to personally drive us to the places we wanted to see in Cape Town. We ate in the restaurant each of the three nights we were there and enjoyed all our meals. Very much recommended as an alternative to staying in Cape Town.
