"Penguino was absolutely the right choice and exceeded all expectations. Centrally situated we could walk the beautiful ocean-pathways and visit the Waterfront and Old Harbour without having to use our car. This was our daily routine after having enjoyed a delicious Penguino-breakfast, the best in town. Thank you, Stefan and Nikki, for a wonderful stay."

"Breakfast was amazing, best French toast ever. Stay was very comfortable in newly renovated rooms with modern finishes. Hosts were very welcoming and accommodating for families with small children. Lovely protected courtyard with pool. Location was great with good restaurants, tidal pools, nature walks and shops were all accessible by foot."
