I was travelling by myself and stayed at Maartens Guesthouse 4 nights this March - it couldn't have been more perfect! It started with a friendly and informative ride in from the airport arranged by them which I would recommend if you have never been to the area. My room was better than I had expected - stunning view and... More

My boyfriend and I stayed here for 3 nights earlier this month. It was wonderful; clean, spacious, very comfortable and great value for money. The house is situated in quiet Fresnaye, on the Atlantic coast of Cape Town, but made a convenient base to explore the city itself and the rest of the cape. Both Maarten and Conchita couldn't have...

We stayed in the guesthouse over New Years 10/11 and what a brilliant place it is! We stayed here for the final leg of our honeymoon, we stayed 4 nights in total and explored Cape Town using the guesthouse as our base. The guesthouse is located a short walk up from the main coastal road around Cape Town and, although... More

We had a great time at Maarten's Guesthouse. The rooms are very nice and clean, we had a room with oceanview: great! Maarten is very friendly, helpful and gave us lots of tips. This place is just between Camps Bay and Waterfront, Sea Point is at walking distance (save at night). We definitely go back to Maarten's Guesthouse if we... More

The first impression of Maartens is friendly and welcoming, the accommodation is very comfortable and the staff are on hand to assist as well as Maarten who is more than eager to share his local knowledge of restaurants and tourist attractions. The price was very rreasonable the breakfasts on the terrace were excellent and we would return in an instant. More

This is a great guesthouse, nice, clean and we had a great room with a balcony. It was very quiet and yet you're close to everything. Martin was very helpful with tips about the area. The breakfast was fresh and delicious you could order eggs and were therefore as fresh from the pan. We are unfortunately only two nights at... More

Maarten's Guesthouse is a very nice and cosy guesthouse, centrally located with friendly people who are very willing to help and advice you. The rooms are big and the beds are enormous, I really felt like a princess. Also the bathroom is very nice, because of the lovely butterfly showerhead. I stayed for 14 days and I really had a...

We started our honeymoon in Capetown @ Maarten's Guesthouse for 4 nights. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. We had a superb view over the bay and the room was very nice. The bathroom was oversized with a rainshower and bathtub. The location is very good and the area is quite safe. Short drive to nice Camps bay and... More
