“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.”

“Penguino is an excellent choice. Its quiet and clean and the hosts are very friendly and helpful. The guesthouse is minutes from the bustling town, and you can walk along the stunning coastal cliff walk either direction. The rooms are spacious and nicely decorated. Ask to try their in-house wine!”
