Ideal location and lovely clean room with a perfect breakfast - ideal. It was a great place to start our holiday and to have time chilling on the deck with the stunning view. Our hosts were charming and the service was first rate.

We had a great time at Rocklands Bed and Breakfast. Conveniently located just south of town and right off the main road. Quiet location with great views of the ocean and mountains. Great breakfast delivered to our room by Kathy each morning. Highly recommended if you want to explore the Cape Point area and/or see the penguins on the beach.

We were overwhelmed by the excellent service, rooms, friendliness and accommodating our special requests. That all and the most amazing view possible, we could not ask for more. Thank you, we definitely will be back. Thank you for making our easter weekend stay, combined with the Sailing WC Championships a super special one. You were definitely part of the memories made. Definitely recommended for family stays.

Newport, United Kingdom7 contributions9 helpful votes
Absolutely fabulous owned by the lovely Erica and Richard who were great hosts and made us feel very welcome and helped us find our feet. Nothing was too much trouble and it was appreciated having our little girl with us as well. The apartment/room is spotless and really well equipped. The pool in the beautiful gardens is beautiful. Swim whilst looking out over the ocean or just chill lying on the chairs made available. It was a little cold when we were there (we missed the heatwave!) but our little girl thought is was wonderful! Mention to Cathy (who delivered breakfast every morning with Erica) as she was lovely and kept the apartment looking great too. Breakfast was really nice - granola, fruit and yoghurt to start followed by your choice of continental or cooked breakfast. When Erica found. Out my daughter loved strawberry’s and kiwi she got more of that and in a children’s bowl and cutlery too which was a lovely touch. Erica also prepared us a pack to go on the last morning as we had to leave at 5:30am. Last but not least and what absolutely tops everything is the views, they are just stunning. It is worthwhile to wake early on at least one morning to see the sun rise over the Indian Ocean. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay again here and would recommend to any one of my friends or family without any doubt. The only issue me writing such a great review (it’s deserved) is the next time we are around we might not get in!
