Reviews for A Whale of a Time
Review 1：The restaurants in the area close the kitchen as early as 21:00, so be sure to eat early.
Review 2：The owner colleen was very welcoming and kind, Silvia was always smiling and ready to help. While walking on the boardwalk next to the ocean we have seen 3 whale aprox' 15 meters from us. The highlight of staying there is waking up to the full ocean view from the balcony that was abselutly fantastic. We had a great time there :)
Review 3：I was not advised that there were so many stairs, very steep and no handrail.
Review 4：The view was amazing. The owner was very accommodating with helping to get the luggage down and up the stairs. The apartment was spacious and light.
Review 5：No secure parking. Had to park outside, half on the paving half on the road.
Review 6：Had every that we needed in a self catering apartment. Glad that it was serviced every day.
Review 7：Having chosen the property after seeing the picture of the property on the web showing beautiful thatched cottage at the side of pool we were stunned to be accommodated in an apartment adjacent to the cottage shown and some 67 steep steps up from the pool. We never made it down the steps - we would have had a 67 step climb back up - we are both in our seventies!! Would never go back and could not recommend, especially for older persons.
Review 8：The trips we took to surrounding areas, e.g. Simon's Town, Penguin Colony, Cape of Good Hope.
Review 9：accommodation very small. second room should not be called a room but rather a cubicle!!! kitchen facilities very basic.
Review 10：location ,staff and cleanliness
Review 11：There were on-going maintenance happening which should really be done in the off season.
Review 12：Position, position, position.
Review 13：Fab views from the balcony
Review 14：Loved the view from our balcony over the bay!!also great being between Kalk bay and Simons town!
