We had a good experience at Blouberg Dolphin Inn. Welcome was friendly and owner showed us around and explained everything. Rooms was clean and tidy and lovely to unpack. Coffee and Tea station in the local area was lovely. We will stay there a gain as it's safe, clean and close to the beach, restaurants etc. Thank you.
Enjoyed every minute of my stay. Very close to the beach with a beautiful view of Table Mountain and the sunsets were amazing. The hotel staff was fantastic so friendly and very helpful with anything I needed. They went over and above. The room was very clean, very comfortable bed. A nice quiet place to stay and I will definantly stay there again.

Madeleine and her father were great hosts...very accommodating. Breakfast was great- good selection.
We had a few guests above us that were very load when leaving early in the morning stomping on the stairs. this is not the fault of the dolphin inn but did influence our stay negatively.
I had a wonderful stay here. The guesthouse is extremely clean, comfortable and in a fantastic location one block from the beach. Madeleine and Bokkie were exceptional hosts - helpful, warm, gracious and simply a pleasure to stay at their guesthouse. Highly recommended!
A great stay at Town Lodge. The room was decent, pool nice, and a gym facility provided next door at the City Lodge. There is free parking and great beaches across the street. Plenty of great food also in walking distance.
