Cottage with Sea Views

Positioned just 7 minutes walk from lovely, sandy beaches Mermaid Rock Cottage is a charming fisherman's cottage offering independent self catering private family accommodation. From the sea facing deck spectacular sunrises and sunsets can be savored and BBQ enjoyed with a stunning view of False Bay and ArK Rock. Situated in Jackson Road, a quiet little street, a lovely walk from the picturesque seaside village of Simon's Town for shopping and fine dining at reasonable prices. Take a stroll down to Boulders Beach National Park famous for its Jackass Penguin Colony or a breath taking walk up the Naval steps on Admirals Kloof, the mountain behind the cottage. Drive the scenic road south, down the peninsula, to the well known Cape Point Nature Reserve where you can get a magnificent view of the 2 oceans, Indian and Atlantic, merging. Enjoy a glass of Cape wine and a braai as you sit under the pergola on the deck, and gaze out to sea, you may catch a rare glimpse of the Mermaid of Ark Rock!

Great location and property
We had a lovely stay. The property is very nice, great location close to penguins and easy drive to other attractions, and has great views. The listing could be clearer that there is a cash deposit and early arrival/departure fee. Not a problem, but that only became clear later when we signed the contract.

Dream place to stay
Very quiet neighborhood. Walking distance from the beach (Boulders and others), sea side restaurants and downtown Simon's Town shopping and dining. Excellent manager, very responsive via WhatsApp. The only downside is the distance from downtown Cape Town but we didn't mind the ride with such wonderful views. Overall, great experience. Would come again! Kudos to Jen. ❤️

Lovely cottage with a great location
This is a lovely cottage that has all the amenities you need. Checking in with Jenni was painless and she went over everything we needed to know. We loved that we could walk to Boulder Beach and to Simons Town. We had some beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Would highly recommend this property and hope to return someday.

Amazing stay
We loved this place! It was bright, clean and a great location (but you’ll need a rental car). Everything we needed and great communication with host/manager. Can’t recommend highly enough!

Future first option
Simply cannot fault anything - from the time of booking until checkout. Excellent service including, updates on load shedding schedules and alternative lighting and cooking options, sharing of local knowledge and responsive contact throughout our stay. Will most certainly place this property at the top of our return holiday accommodation options in the Western Cape. Thank you for delivering as advertised and adding to making this a memorable break.

Excellent location and amazing property manager
The checkin process is unlike anything I have ever experienced, but I totally get it now. The house needs to be secured from baboons so there is a process that needs to be explained in person. It’s not hard, just too much to explain in text. Jenni the property manager is an absolute delight. The location of the property couldn’t be any better. It’s walkable to boulders beach. The porch/patio is gorgeous, sadly it was too cold to really get to enjoy it for our stay but in warmer months it’s perfect for sunrise or moonrise (not facing the right direction for sunset, but still gorgeous). The property is older so it doesn’t have a lot of outlets in convenient places and the sinks are the old school double faucet, but it’s very clean and comfortable. Would definitely stay here again.
