    Located above a filling station & unable to find as no number or name displayed. Both of these didn't affect our wonderful stay.

    Location into town was great. Loved the outdoor shower & seating area.

    That we only spent one night there.

    Absolutely everything! First of all, Celesté and Tito are really helpful & lovely people who provided us with tips. The location of the apartment is also great, restaurants etc. are just around the corner. My highlight: in the evening you can watch the baboon gang “storming” the city. The apartment itself is simply amazing - so beautifully, tastefully and thoughtfully furnished, I have rarely felt so comfortable in an accommodation or stayed in a nicer one. The small, beautifully landscaped outdoor area with outdoor shower was my favorite spot. Water, fruit, yoghurt, snacks and wine were provided free of charge (thank you!). Unfortunately, we were only there for one night - I would stay there again anytime and highly recommend a stay at Eclectic Heritage Paradise. Because as you can probably tell: I'm a little bit in love ;)

    Only thing we did not like (totally outside control of the host) was the church bell across the road that chimed every 30 minutes. Perhaps triple glazing windows to the front might help. The apartment and host was absolutely fantastic!

    We only stayed one night, but would definitely have made use of the outside shower if we stayed longer. The host left us a bottle of red and white wine, snacks for the kids, fruit in the fridge, coffee pods, water, milk etc. the beds were very comfortable. everything in this apartment was great. Sitting outside on the balcony with a view of False Bay was very relaxing

    Sincerely, is a lot of years that I travel for work and for pleasure and I have never found some accomodation wonderful like that. Celeste and Tito were really lovely and friedly hosts, they were careful about all our needs. The apartment is composed with interior design, created with great taste and passion, it's always present in each part of the structure. I will come back for sure.

    Me and my friend had the pleasure of vacationing in Simon’s Town in November 24. It was our first time in South Africa in surroundings of Cape Town and we were worried about where to find a suitable place to stay. Before the trip, we decided for this apartment. We were very lucky to stay with these wonderful people Celesté and Tino, the owners of the apartment. This is how we imagined our vacation! The location was perfect for visiting the famous places. Bright, noisy, modern Cape Town with its Table Mountain, Winery Stellenbosch or Franschhoek, Cape Point and Cape of good Hope or Pinguins Park-during the day and peace and quiet in the evening and at night in a cozy, absolutely quiet, decorated with lots of love and style place of our stop, far from the hustle and bustle. Hospitable hosts who took patronage over us, always ready to help with advice and action. A very nice family and wonderful memories! We were glad to meet you and vacation with you!

    Nothing really. Just noticed the stove door couldn’t be opened past the dishwasher & that made getting the oven dish in & out quite difficult.

    Everything! The secure & private garden was just incredible. It was a very beautiful place - a unique design that worked brilliantly. The owners made us feel very welcome & talked us through all the key points. There were many little complimentary things which were so well thought out & a massive welcome surprise. The world map where we could put a pin showing where we had arrived from was a very awesome touch.

    This is a fabulous place to stay. Tino and Celeste are the best hosts, they are very welcoming, leaving special welcome treats and just being the nicest people. The flat is very well appointed and easy to stay in. The location is in downtown Simon’s Town which means you can walk to all the local cafes, bars, museums, beaches and even the penguins. The outside space works well with a shaded garden as well as a balcony with views of False Bay. I am happy to highly recommend this as a great place to stay.

    Oh please!

    We liked absolutely everything! Everything! Just name it and we loved it. Sea view from the terrace is a great bonus, some bits and bobs for breakfast, chocolates and 2 bottles of wine, but the very best "part" of our stay are hosts. What amazing people they are! So friendly and helpful, Celeste was ready to book me a doctor's appointment - thank you so much! Communication was perfect. Everything was perfect.

    Everything was perfect 10/10

    The place is really charming and comfortable Arranged with good taste and equipped with everything one needs, also in the kitchen (I will only add a plastic cutting board) One can sit with a glass of wine on the small, green, patio on the back I didn't really understood what a good host is until we arrived here. She not only helped us with heavy bags (we have luggage for 3 weeks), stopped traffic to help us cross a bit crazy road, left for us fridge full of juices, water, yoghurts, even delicious wine :) . And she's so exceptionally nice ❤️ Pity we haven't more time to spend in Simon's Town

    All good things come to an end, and we had to leave. This is not a criticism but have to mention the apartment does have a steep incline to get upto the door but worth it! Just if health, fitness are issues.

    Exceptional! Amazing hosts Tino and Celeste - know what they are doing! Felt like we were returning home! Comfort! Design! Exquisite! Would book again and again!!! Arranged cleaning for an extra long stay with Gift who helped out - even did our laundry!!!!!
