Lovely quiet location within reach of easy walking to the beach and light house! Very nice hostess as well as a good artist (potter)! The whole atmosphere is very homey and peaceful¨ We loved our stay! Too short!!

The hosts - Michele and Roger - are so friendly and inviting. The house is beautifully decorated and is located in a quiet neighborhood, a very short walk from Long's Beach for surfing and local restaurants/shops. The owner is a potter with unique coastal inspired pieces that she sells from her onsite studio. Our room had huge windows and a sliding door to a outside deck. Views from the house are stunning.
A very homely set-up with a room on the patio and a room inside the house. I think it should be noted that one of the bedrooms is in the owner's house. Very comfortable and clean. Loved the home made breakfast that was served in the main house.
Bedroom in the house.
Michele & her husband was super friendly and helpful. The breakfast was out of this world.
nothing, it was perfec
Beautiful house and super comfy room and bed. A stone throw away from the beach with surfers having so much fun and beach sauna. Michele recommended a lovely local restaurant (The green room) that we walked to in 10 min, going through the nature reserve. Lovely cat cuddles with the 2 residents cats. The view of the sea from the patio is gorgeous especially with the complementary teas and coffees in the room. We had cycled through Chapman's peak and enjoyed a lovely and restfull night at Michele's. But the gem of this Airbnb is MIchele who is the perfect host. The breakfast is delicious and very generous, and Michele's recommendations, stories and attention to her visitors is lovely and make us all regret we only stayed one night!
The host Michelle and her partner were simply lovely. So warm and hospitable. Nothing was too much effort. A beautiful home from home experience with true South African hospitality in a stunning location.
nothing- everything was lovely - down to the quaint shower in the bath. :)
Lovely hosts and great staff. I needed a break away from my home that was not more than 1 hour away. Perfect location for a few days. Also made it easy for me to visit other places during the day.
The friendly welcome and the location
Nothing although we were a bit unlucky with the weather
Sehr liebevolle Gastgeberin Leckeres Frühstück Großer Balkon Tolles Ambiente
Enge Dusche
We unfortunately stayed with Michele for just one night, as we had a flight home the next day. When we arrived, all three of us (we were traveling with our son) were truly surprised—we hadn’t expected such a beautiful bed and breakfast. It’s so lovingly decorated and feels like a real place to relax and feel at home. We all grew very fond of Ozzie, the house dog. Lorraine prepared a wonderful breakfast for us with so much care, and I especially enjoyed spending time in the garden. Restaurants, cafés, and the ocean are all within walking distance, which made everything even more perfect. We would absolutely love to come back. Thank you so, so much!
Liebevolles Haus und tolle herzliche Gastgeber
Lage, ruhig und nah am Strand gelegen.
Keine Klimaanlage, keine Dusche (nur Badewanne), sehr steile schmale Treppe zum Zimmer nach oben, keine Fliegenschutzgitter damit viele Mücken im Zimmer
Proximity to beach and restaurants. The environment is lovely. Host was very welcoming.
Shower is somewhat cramped.

Very friendly staff. Aparment very clean. Quiet area
Home far from home! So fühlt es sich an bei Michele! Es war sehr entspannend. Das Gesamthaus ist mit Geschmack eingerichtet. Die Lage ist sentationnell und es war sehr entspannend dort am Ende einer 3 Wochen Reise in SA zu verweilen. Man kann alle Sehenswürdigkeiten auf dem Kap (Gute Hoffnung, Muizenberg, Kapstadt, Simonstown, Bouldersbeach...) perfekt errreichen. Restaurants (GreenRoom hat eine tolle Karte und Atmosphere, Fisherman Garden: mega frische Fische und Prawns) sind zu Fuss zu erreichen und es ist sehr sicher. Wir werden zurückkommen!
Schönes Zimmer mit großzügigem Bad und Zugang zum Garten, die Lage ist perfekt, einmal über die Düne und schon ist man am traumhaften Strand von Kommetjie.
Very friendly, helpful owner. Good breakfast. Michelle gave us excellent suggestions for visits. Walking distance to beach where you can make long walks and have a distance view on Houtbay and Chapmans peak drive.

ein an sich nettes guesthouse.
es scheint nur wenige (2?) Zimmer zu geben, dennoch war dad Personal sehr überrascht, als wir mittags dort ankamen. das guesthouse sieht nett gemacht aus. allerdings hat es dort sehr intensiv nach faulen Algen gerochen. wir sind dann noch zum nahen stand, dort war der Geruch unerträglich. noch ohne wirklich einzuchecken sind wir wieder abgefahren, mit dieser Begründung. nachmittags hat die Leiterin/Besitzerin geschrieben, da ihr offensichtlich der Grund unserer Abreise nicht mitgeteilt wurde. Insgesamt keine gute Erfahrung
The position in a calm area, very close to a wonderful beach and the the kindness and availabilty of the owners was really astounding!
Close to the beach . Beautiful clean space with a large comfortable bed! The owners are great people with amazing energy! Will definitely stay there again ! Breakfast was delicious 🫶
Place was squeeky clean and opposite a green belt conversation area. Lovely!
It’s a room in the house. A beautiful penthouse room with a balcony & a lovely view. There is a bathtub, basin & toilet in the room. It was very comfortable. We also got a lovely home made breakfast.

Fijne ruime en schone kamer met een balkon met uitzicht op zee. Ook fijn dat er een koelkast op de kamer is. De gastvrouw is zeer hartelijk en heeft leuke tips voor de omgeving. We voelden ons zeer welkom.
La ubicación es fantástica, especialmente para aquellos que quieran surfear o simplemente dar un bonito paseo por el pueblo o la playa, además está cerca en coche de una zona preciosa como es Misty cliffs, Scarborough y Cape point. Los gatos y el perro son cariñosos y los anfitriones fantásticos. Las instalaciones están muy limpias y muy bien equipadas. El desayuno también es fantástico y los anfitriones hacen lo posible para que esté todo a tu gusto. Además la zona es MUY MUY segura, tanto de día como de noche. Sin duda elegiría este alojamiento de nuevo.
No poder quedarme todo el año
Wunderbare Gastgeber mit persönlichem Kontakt, Schlafzimmer mit Blick auf Sonnenaufgang, Meer, Dünen, ein Traum. Gutes Frühstück, Strand in 1 Minute zu Fuß, wir würden immer wieder kommen

Fantastic stay with brilliant host that made me feel part of the family. Beautiful room and location Thanks Michelle for hosting me
J’ai tout aimé, la gentillesse de nos hôtes, la beauté de la chambre, sa situation, le petit-déjeuner
Ruhige Lage sehr nahe am Strand und Restaurants in Fussdistanz. Michelle war sehr gastfreundlich, wir haben uns direkt wohlfegühlt. Parkplatz steht direkt vor dem Haus zur Verfügung.

Потрясающий дом и потрясающая хозяйка Мишель. Действительно, чувствуешь себя как дома. Номер просторный, балкон с видом на океан и окна с видом на закат. Классный завтрак. Пляж очень близко. Район очень безопасный. Все тихо, спокойно. Первую ночь я была единственным гостем. Еще в доме живет добрая собака и серьезный кот😀 В 5 минутах ходьбы есть магазин и рестораны. С радостью вернусь сюда снова. Ночью было немного прохладно, но простыни подогревались.
Svært hyggelige værter, god frokost og fantastisk beliggenhet!
Property is very close to all amenities and the main beach. Friendly hosts.
we had a great stay with Michele - excellent stay and great spot in kommetjie
Great location very friendly host would stay again
Breakfast was fantastic! The whole stay was wonderful! Michele gave practical suggestions which made my visit much better.
A stunning ocean view room in a safe and natural area. Super peaceful and beautiful. Loved the bath. As a woman travelling alone I felt super safe and at ease and well rested in the big bed. Great host.
Great host great location near beach nice room with an amazing view
I can’t think of anything
Location was great and very clean
Both beds were very uncomfortable. Think they need to be replaced

Lovely hosts and beautiful setting
Location was lovely. Rooms were stunning. Breakfast was good.
We liked everything
What a beautiful place! We love Kommetjie!
Michelle was kind enough to allow for our unusual check-in and check- out times. The house is relaxed and friendly and in a lovely location near Long Beach.
Wonderful hosts, located very close to the beach.
Location (Kommetjie) best kept secret of the Cape. Very safe area. Breakfast gorgious Lady of the house makes beautiful art in her pottery.. My son and I are very happy with the bought souvenirs. Fantastic quiet beach on walking distance
No complaints at all
Great location, two minutes from beach, quiet and private. Very comfortable.
Nothing
Great location, lovely room, nice owner
This was our second stay with Michele. She does a wonderful job hosting and making your stay comfortable. Breakfast is simple and her table well laid out for guests. Fresh fruit, yogurt, eggs and toast. We were a five minute walk to two restaurants and two minutes to the beach. Note, the water is freezing!! But lots of surfers. Kommetjie remains one of my favorite places on the cape and her location is central and very quiet.
We loved our room and the proximity of the house to the sea and delicious places to eat and visit but especially our wonderful hosts and yummy breakfast. Thank you thank you and I came away with beautiful treasures

We loved staying at Guinea Fowl House! The room, breakfast, hosts, and proximity to the beach are incredible! We can’t wait to be back!

We had such a lovely room with a gorgeous view to the ocean. Delicious breakfasts every morning. It was a short walk across the meadow to restaurant and coffee shop and beach. We didn’t move our car for the three days we were there, we enjoyed pottering around Kommetjie and along the beautiful beach.
Great location
Lovely home and garden. Friendly host. Could walk to a lot of places.
Would prefer shower in bathroom.
Amazing
Close to the sea but in a low traffic cul-de-sac. Views to the sea and mountains. A real 'beach cottage' feel with lots of bright fabrics and furnishing. The host, Michelle, is very friendly and helpful.
No off-street parking, which Jo'bergers don't like.
We liked everything about our stay. Michelle is an excellent host , took exceptional care of us . Way and beyond the call of duty Hope we can come back sometime
Nothing
I enjoyed the breakfast. No hot option but didn't matter to me.
Some rooms lack showers - not necessarily a problem but should be noted if you prefer a shower or cannot use a bathtub.
Beautiful, tastefully decorated B&B at the edge of a conservation area and just a short walk from the beach. Well located, close to amenities. Michele is a wonderful host, super welcoming and helpful. Would definitely stay again, it was a pleasure.
Nothing, all was perfect
Comfortable and airy. Excellent location
Couldn’t have a shower
Very cute and comfortable place to stay. 3 min to the ocean.
Nice area close to spectacular beach
Big pitbull squatting on the center couch on the porch.....and the place had not been cleaned properly ...we did not move in and booked somewhere else on new years eve
Location and friendly hosts. Los of Space and tranquil garden close to beach
Everything was too perfect! We Head a wonderful stay. It felt like home for us. We will come back and stay longer
We loved the quirky, bohemian feel of the guest house and the two bedrooms were very comfortable and spacious, sharing a balcony which looked out towards the beach and the nearby nature area. The hosts, Michele and Roger, were warm and welcoming, knowledgeable and enjoyed a chat. Michele is an artist too and her lovely ceramic work was displayed as part of a local artists weekend- so we had the benefit of seeing it too!
Nothing.
We really enjoyed our stay at Michelle’s house. It is absolutely beautiful and has an amazing view. The beach and some restaurants are in walking distance. Michele is such a lovely person! We would stay at her house again, when we are around!
Quintessential beach cottage, open, spacious, light and laid back. Large bedroom with lovely bath, sliding doors opening onto balcony with view, beach just a short walk away.
Great room, great location, great host.
I loved everything about my stay! Perfect place if you are looking for relxatation! Michele is giving great tips on what to do in the area. Great place and village if you are looking for a relaxed time! I would love to stay there again!

Location was very close to the beach. Seemed to be a safe area. Lovely fish/chips shop just along the road. Convenient stop for visiting Cape Point. Michelle is a very good hostess and it was great chatting with her.
