"I loved the artwork in the lounge and most importantly the stunning view of the ocean. The place was very clean and the owners were friendly. I will definitely be going back."
"Although the wind was terrible we enjoyed our stay. Just one hickup is that the bathroom is too small .I really thought that the picture you see is the venue and I fell inlove with the picture of the house. This was very misleading ."
"Enjoyed our stay...it had everything we needed."
"The house was clean and the beds were wel made. T he view was exceptional. the only problem it was the transportatin to go around but everything was perfect."
"I loved everything about the house. The view was spectacular. The house is very nice and neat. I would visit marianella again. I would just maybe prefer if check out time was a little bit later"
"Double bed against a wall....no side table or reading lamp.....bathroom set up a disaster....first three knives I took out kitchen draw were dirty....."
"loved everything. was clean and well equipped with everything. loved the view."
"This place had everything we needed from washing machine to all the kitchen appliances, very clean friendly owner , best self catering place ."
"<p>Before we get to Marianella, the service level from "SafariNow" is absolutely amazing! Thank you for making my holiday effortless. </p><p>The view is stunning. We did not need to bring anything other than food and our personal items, the house has everything you need. Beautiful and Clean. I will recommend to anyone and will definitely return.</p><p>Debbie Groenewald</p><p>Gauteng (already missing the Cape)</p>"
"The place is really nice. nice sea view and more than everything friendliest owner i have ever dealt with:)"
"Wonderful holiday home, great views and great area.<div>Will definately come again. :-)</div><div><br /></div>"
"We stayed for three days, short but will definitely be back for a longer stay. everything we needed was there and the view was amazing! thanks Wilma, will definitely recommend it to friends and family! See you soon!"
"Our stay at Marianella was wonderful. The view isoutstanding and the house and cottage had everything we needed. We will certainly recommend it to others needing a big spacious house."
"<p>We were still on the road to Simonstown when Wilma contacted us by phone to ensure that we were still safe. When we arrived everything was arranged and the booking in went off without any hitch. We had a lovely stay and enjoyed every single day there. We have already recommended this establishment to some of our friends and family members. Absolute value for money<br></br><br></br></p><p>Charles and Lois Brown </p>"
"We had a Awesome Weekend at Marianella House. Beautiful Home and Spectacular View. Me and my Family had a amazing time and cant wait to come back."
"Excellent view and all the things we needed. Had a great time, will see you again!"
"The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is that there are a number of maintenance issues, which I later notified the owner about."
"A great home and we had time there.Beautiful location and great view from the Balcony."
"We had an amazing stay at Marianella it was truly home away from home very comfortable and welcoming. We will definitely be returning."
"We had a great time in a beautiful spacious home, exceeded our expectations!!! Definitely coming back and referring to more people."
"We booked four lodgings for a trip along the garden route, starting with a weekend at the Cape with Marianella as our home base. This was our least-expensive lodging and as it sometimes goes (when it goes right!) this was also our favorite! A great layout to the house, very well-appointed and comfy with the most unadorned, spectacular views we could imagine. Wow. You cannot go wrong with this house."
"The good: What an incredible view! One side of the house overlooks False Bay, and shows an ever changing vista with the sun as it traverses the sky, the mountains that form the boundaries of bay, and activity of humans including ships, boats, cars and trains. Great location for day visits to attractions in and around Cape Town and surrounds. Truly impressive. The house is well built, warm in winter, very well set up, with lovely bed rooms, an excellent and well appointed kitchen and bathrooms, excellent bed linen etc. The owners were most hospitable and a pleasure to deal with. The bad: there were a couple of minor maintenance issues, which the owners said they would get fixed, but they were minor and did not stop us in any way from a memorable stay. Summary: Very highly recommended for a visit to Cape Town and its surrounds, especially for a larger group. We were a party of 12, and took both the house and the associated small apartment, which worked out very well."

"Spent a weekend at the house and it was very peaceful and beautiful. Even though the guest house is so small, I felt it was nice and cosy just for my BF and I. We won't mind coming again. Thanks Wilma and Malcolm."
"Lovely place neat and tidy. Cant wait to come back. Thanks for everything."
"We had a fantastic weekend. The house had everything we needed. All my friends said they had a great stay. We are definitely booking again for the end of August."
"This house has six bedrooms as well as a separate guest cottage. The house is perfect for a large group and offers privacy and comfort with all the modern amenities necessary for a lovely holiday. The full DSTV, freezer ice maker and lovely view are only some of the advantages of staying here. It is best if the guest cottage (which is attached to the main house) is not let to a seperate couple unknown to those in the main house, as the close proximity of the two could make things uncomfortable."
"The view from the balcony/terrace was super! The studio had everything you need, but was a little too small for two people. The landlady was very friendly and helpful. We can recommend this accommodation to everyone."
"A colleague and I spent two nightsat Marianella with our newly elected 2012 student leaders. It turned out to be the perfect venue for our planning session. The venue comfortably accommodated the 12 students and we were afforded some privacy by staying in the smaller one-bed cottage. The venue is very well equipped and offers all the home away from home luxuries one could wish for. It offers the most exquisite views and, for those cold winter days, the indoor fireplace is most welcome. Absolute value for money! Hosts, Malcolm and Wilma, are to be commended for their hospitality. Cedar House will most certainly be back."
"The place was very neat and we had a great stay. It worked well for our large group."
"Everything was perfect for our stay! The owners' friendliness and assistance was outstanding! Would definitely return when visiting Cape Town again!"
"Very good four night stay."
"We have booked the cottage, but was upgraded to the house. Our sincerest gratitude to Wilma for her friendly service. The house is stunning, well equipped with luxury appliances and attention to detail, and the view is breathtaking. Photographs can not do justice to the view. We will definitely be back with the whole family."
"We stayed here as it is near the start for the 50k at the Cape Town Big Walk. The location is absolutely awesome, amazing views, great place to just chill before and after the race. "
"This was the most relaxing stay my wife and I have had in years. House is lovely and very nice to stay in. Would really recommend it to anybody."
"Very impressed with the accommodation "
"Thanx a lot for a fantastic stay and a very nice break away. This was our second time around and there will definitely be more. The house is stunning and the views even better. Berenice and fam"

"The stay was truly a beautiful one because my friends an i really enjoyed the most beautiful home. We loved how it had such a warm invite, because the girls and i all stay away from home, so the home made us feel like we all where at home. Thank you so much to Mal and Wilma the girls really enjoyed staying at your home, that they now want to come back but in summer to fully experience the view that was soo amazing. Thanks once again. I would recommend this place to anyone who needs accommodation in Simons Town."
"Despite the delayed arrival of our flight, made special arrangements for us to enter the property albeit at 3am. We had a wonderful stay and the owner's were not overbearing at all!!!!!Stunning views - I'll get a bigger group and rent the main house next time!"

"The view, the ambiance - just the general feel of the house contributed to making our evening perfect in every way!!!!Thank you so much, Malcolm for letting us have the house for the evening.It is a slice of heaven!!!!"
" I will surely come again and would proudly recommend it to the people I know. Its location is brilliant, you are at the centre of everything."
"Need I say more!!!"
"The villa is very nice (although the rooms we had were a bit small - compared to other rooms in the villa- but for the money wepaid? no complaint), nice view, clean, complete utensils and cooking ware - just make you feel at home. Location was also good - not exactly in the central of Simon's town, but if you have a car- it's perfect for your base to explore the area. Close to Boulders Beach (where the penguin is), walking distance to Scratch Patch, close to Kalk Bay, Fish Hook, and only 1/2 hour to Cape Point! "
"Unfortunately it was brief but it was very comfortable and we would have enjoyed a longer stay."
"The place was very cosy and homely. The balcony has a wonderful view of false bay. Overall, it was a great place to stay for me and I would certainly recommend it to others. Simon's town is a great place to kick back and enjoy the beach, away from the traffic and bustle of the city. two thumbs up!"
"Lovely place and lovely people. They are lucky I didn't take up "squatters rights" and stay there for ever! :)"
"The house is very well equipped to cater for your every need and there is ample space to enjoy your own privacy. The view in itself was a huge luxury and we can't wait to go back."
"I had a good stay in Cape Town and hoping to return very soon."
"As you know I had my family from Europe with us. We are impressed with the house and the service. The location is perfect and easy to find. We are people who travel a lot, and I have never seen such a modern and well equipped kitchen and a magnificent view for the price you offering.The best choice."
"Malcolm & Wilma are truely great hosts. We were a party of 12 and had the most fantastic time ever. We really felt at home with all the luxuries and comfort given. Thank you so much for your kindness & hospitality Mal..... See you soon."

"Hello Mal and Wilma... Although we only stayed one night, no experience away from home has been so special! We had the most stunning view and being local we never expected to be treated like we were! Wilma, you're gorgeous and I need to thank you for being so hospitable!! Malcolm, thanks for replying so fast and accommodating us even though u knew you'd be in trouble...lolIf there were any institution that deserved to be called a FIVE star...IT WOULD BE MARIANELLA...and we love the Fridge!!!!!All in all, we had an amazing stay, we didn't want to leave!! I read your visitors book over and over! You should be proud on your establishment!! It's too die for!"
"Exceptional! Simple, spotless, comfortable, well run, easy-living. I will look no further for future Simonstown visits."

"Wonderful spot with the best view.Owners are pleasant as well and so helpful. Will recommend to many.Is worth the drive from Cape Town."
"A great weekend away, despite the cold and wet weather, the time spent at the guest house was amazing. the heaters throughout the house really helped out, real comfort and relaxation. Thanks for accommodating us. "
"Marianella was really a gr8 breakaway from the rush of everyday life and the best part was that it had all the comforts of home.Thank you to Wilma & Mal. "
"My stay Marianella was by far the best.....i would not have chosen another place.I will be booking with them again soon, the hospitality, house, atmosphere and especially the view. I was taken everyday!!! I always was eager to see the sun rise and set over those blue waters.Once again the stay was a thrill and it made me put the Marienalla's at the top of my list for accommodation in Simon's Town."
"Fantastic stay at Marianella.Plus beautiful scenery in Cape Town, the trip ended with great happiness.Will choose Marianella again next time going to Cape Town."
"We were really pleased with our stay at Marianella.The views were very nice and the configuration of this house was ideal for a family vacation with our daughter and her family.The grandchildren really liked the proximity to Boulder Beach and their "swim with the penguins".Simons Town was a good stepping off point for day trips to Cape Town, Cape of Good Hope and Stellenboch."
"This truely was the best of both worlds for us. Stress free, tranquil and relaxing. Thank you Malcolm and Wilma for letting us share your fantastic home with us and making our holiday a memorable one. We had everything and more at our disposal to use. "

"This is just to let you know that staying at 'At Home With Marianella' has truly made our vacation extra special. It is very rare to get those facilities for the price we paid.

We will definitely recommend the use of this website to those we know.You will be hearing from us again because staying at your place was like being at home. You guys have done a great job decorating the place.Thanking You,"

"It was awesome. Really relaxing and homely. The view was 10 times better then I was expecting. And yes the spa bath was also a great feature.Just wish I could have stayed a week longer. The only thing we had problems with was changing the channel on dstv. Otherwise loved it! Thanks so much"
