Luxury 4-star Villa in Simon's Town, South Africa; Superb Sea View

Felsensicht Holiday Home is superbly situated near Boulders Beach, Simon’s Town & is ideal for families. It is a large, attractive & wonderfully comfortable home with a 180° view of False Bay from Muizenberg in the north to Cape Point in the south. It is beautifully furnished with all mod cons & is fully equipped. We sleep a maximum of 6 persons in 2 double rooms & 1 twin room. We have two bathrooms, one of which is en-suite with exquisite views over the Bay. The open-plan lounge/dining-room/kitchen area has exquisite ocean views.
Stunning sea-facing patios allow for sunbathing, outdoor dining, whale spotting or relaxing & enjoying the glorious view. A Jetmaster fireplace & underfloor heating ensure comfort and warmth on cool winter nights. High speed Wi-Fi Internet is available free of charge to our guests (50 mbps upload and download). We have two secure lock-up garages & a security company looks after the safety of our home and guests. We offer a complimentary cleaning service once a week.

Description of Simon's Town: Simon's Town itself is a quaint and interesting little town. The Simon's Town waterfront is an extremely attractive area with a number of small boutiques selling clothing, artistic items, bric a brac and souvenirs. There is an excellent choice of restaurants within walking and /or driving distance of Felsensicht including Seaforth Restaurant, Bertha’s, The Salty Sea Dog, Café Pescado, Just Sushi, The Quarter Deck, The Lighthouse Café (highly recommended) and, 2½ km from our home towards the south, The Black Marlin (closed at present due to COVID limitations).

Simon's Town is well known for its Naval Museum, Toy Museum and Simon's Town Cultural Museum. The Scratch Patch is also an important tourist attraction where one can 'scratch' for a wide variety of beautiful gemstones.


Beaches and Sporting Activities: The Boulders Beach National Heritage Site is extremely popular with visitors. It is 2 km from the centre of Simon's Town (1 km from Felsensicht Holiday Home), and, as well as enjoying the Boulders Beach, visitors can enjoy seeing and photographing the many penguins who have taken up residence here.

Fisherman's Beach is a mere 2 minute walk from our holiday home, Felsensicht. It is perfect for children and adults alike who enjoy boogie boarding and body surfing. Nearby beaches with quieter rock pools and lagoons are ideal for children, and exploring the rocks and boulders strewn along the coastline is a wonderfully rewarding activity.

Sporting activities in and around the Simon's Town area include swimming, body-boarding, surfing, windsurfing, sea kayaking, scuba diving, big game and shore fishing, yachting at the Simon's Town yacht club, golf, squash and bowls at the Simon's Town Country Club, birding, boat trips out to sea and cycling.

Climate, History and Places of Interest: The Cape is an area which experiences a Mediterranean climate - warm summers and cool winters. The rainy season is during the winter months but often one is fortunate to enjoy clear skies and warm days during the winter season. Simon's Town itself is an historic town which grew up as a result of the naval base which was originally established here. A visit to the Victoria and Albert Waterfront in Cape Town is a must, as well as a trip up Table Mountain in the cable car. A visit to the world renowned Kirstenbosch National Botanical Gardens should also be on all visitors' lists to Cape Town. The Cape Point Nature reserve is a very popular destination for visitors to Cape Town. Once at Cape Point, one can take the funicular up to the lighthouse and enjoy the glorious view of both the Atlantic and Indian Oceans. Further afield, one can enjoy a day out in the wine lands, sampling the excellent Cape Wines in the Stellenbosch, Swellendam, Paarl or Franschoek areas.

beautiful house and great location!

We loved our time at this house! It is beautifully decorated, well appointed and very comfortable! Off the main road, but a short walk to FIsherman's beach, makes this an ideal location. We wished we had a few more days to enjoy it 😊

Lovely long weekend at Felsensicht

What fabulous weather we had during our stay - hardly a breath of wind - perfect for our cycling trips up to the Cape Point Gate. We had excellent meetings with Heinrich from Tourism Grading and Maureen from AA Travel Guides and hope to retain our 4-star and Superior statuses with these bodies. We enjoyed a delicious brunch with our neighbours, Warren and Dot, at SavCafe at the new shopping complex in Simon’s Town, Harbour Bay. All round, an excellent few days spent at our beautiful holiday home, Felsensicht.

Fabulous holiday and New Year at Felsensicht

Great stay as usual at our holiday home. Weather was perfect, we cycled most days, enjoyed fabulous picnics at Olifantsbos and many braais with friends. We also spent a number of days birding and particularly enjoyed our first visit to the Paarl Mountain Nature Reserve. We did lots of jobs at the holiday home making sure everything was in tip top condirion for ourselves and our guests.

Wonderful Argus Long Weekend at Felsensicht

We are the owners of Felsensicht and, as usual, over the Argus weekend, we stayed at Felsensicht with our fellow cycling friends Richard and Wendy. We had successful rides and an enjoyable stay at Felsensicht with a special sundowner cocktail evening with friends on the Monday after our ride.

Wonderfully well-appointed and well-located house; perfect for a relaxing family holiday

We had a lovely family holiday over New Year 2017/18. The house is spacious, tastefully decorated and very well-equipped, and has huge balconies with beautiful views over False Bay. We enjoyed quaint Simon's Town and livelier Kalk Bay, and had a marvelous day at Cape Point. The house is within reasonably easy striking distance of Table Mountain and Cape Town - drive the Chapman's Peak route to get the best views of mountains and ocean. If you like wide expanses of sand, Noordhoek Beach is within easy reach and much less busy than the False Bay and Cape Town beaches.

Da wir "Felsensicht" nicht als Geheimtipp für uns behalten können: sehr Empfehlenswert

Drei Generationen, Großeltern, Eltern und Enkelkinder haben vom 05 -11.07.2017 einen Teil ihres Urlaubes in diesem sehr schönen Haus verbracht und sind voll des Lobes. Ausstattung und Zustand des Hauses sind überduchschnittlich, die Sicht auf die Bucht ist wunderschön. Die Lage auf der Kaphalbinsel und Nähe zu Kapstadt machen diesen Standort ideal für Ausflüge in die Region. Die organisatorische Abstimmung und Kommunikation sind einwandfrei. Die Boulders-Pinguine sind fussläufig erreichbar und ,obwohl früh im Jahr, ein Wal und jagende Delfine wurden gesichtet.
