Aqua Terra

A Hidden Gem Above the Bay – Aqua Terra is Simply Unforgettable From the moment we arrived at Aqua Terra Guesthouse in Simon’s Town, we were swept into a world that can only be described as breathtaking perfection. Nestled high in the mountains, this sanctuary offers the most spectacular panoramic views of False Bay — honestly, they’re the best we’ve ever seen in the Western Cape. But it’s not just the views that make Aqua Terra remarkable — it’s the warmth and intentionality of the service. Every detail is thought through. From the seamless check-in to the personal welcome from the hosts, it’s clear that hospitality here is an artform. The staff goes above and beyond in the most genuine, graceful way — not just service, but true care. The rooms are immaculate, cozy, and luxurious — large, beautifully decorated, and designed to give you front-row seats to sunrise over the bay. Waking up here feels like a dream. The breakfasts are fresh, thoughtful, and locally inspired, and each morning feels like a celebration of rest and relaxation. Whether you’re lounging by the pool, booking a massage, sipping champagne with ocean views, or simply breathing in the mountain air — Aqua Terra feels like a piece of heaven carved into the cliffs of Simons Town. We’ve stayed at five-star places all over the world — but Aqua Terra is in a league of its own. It’s not just a guesthouse — it’s an experience, a memory, a feeling you carry long after you leave. Unreal. Magical. Beyond words. We will absolutely be back.

The villa is beautiful ( especially the sunrise room) And Our house keeper Peter has been really kind and helpful. You have the breakfast at the diner Which allows you a great view with the ocean and sun rise. Garth and Trent introduced the taxi driver company for us and been helpful and nice to us even they are away from the villa. Will definitely come back next time.

Personal, clean, and with an amazing breakfast! The host, Garth, was incredibly attentive, and Peter, the chef, was not only excellent but also very kind. I’ve been in contact with Garth since 2018, and it’s always wonderful to hear updates from Aqua Terra in Simon’s Town. Hopefully I will return in 2026, after 8 years! I will definitely come back, Garth. Keep up the great work! 😊
