⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely wonderful stay at Maartens Guesthouse!
We had such a lovely time at Maartens Guesthouse in Fresnaye! The accommodation was exactly like in the photos—clean, stylish, and very comfortable. From the moment we arrived, Maarten made us feel incredibly welcome. He’s such a kind and helpful host, and you can really feel the warm, familiar atmosphere he creates in his guesthouse.
Our room was already ready early in the morning, so he kindly allowed us to check in much earlier than expected. He also let us store our luggage for the day after check-out, which was really convenient. During our stay, we decided to extend for one more night, and Maarten made it happen smoothly and without any hassle.
It was also a pleasure to meet the other guests—everyone was really friendly, which added to the relaxed and homey vibe. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay in Cape Town. Highly recommended!
The area is really safe and we were walking down to the city centre and beaches most of the time. Other than walking, Uber is also a great and cheap option to get around in town.

Excellent place to stay in Cape Town, We liked it a lot!
We stayed at Maarten’s guesthouse for two days and we loved it a lot! Maarten was very welcoming and gave us a lot of information about Cape Town and how to get to places. His place is peaceful, the pool was great and breakfast was tasty. We definitely recomend!

Stay in comfort close to the hub of Sea Point.
Although we spent very little time on the property, Maarten and Phillip made us feel very welcome. I have never stayed in Sea Point, and the location exceeded my expectations. We loved being close to the buzz that is Sea Point. Although it might be construed as negative, the area is not quiet, however, this was not a requisite for us. Access to the guesthouse was a breeze. We will stay at Maartens Guest House again.

He was the most friendly host I’ve ever had.
It was freezing cold. The windows were very thin so I could hear the wind howling all night.

Very comfortable stay, great location and views with delicious breakfast
The facilities are great. Beds are very comfortable and the rooms are equipped with a coffee / tea station, 2 point wall plugs, heating, A/C and basic toiletries. I love that there’s a guest fridge and a very well stocked honesty bar with a great selection of soft drinks, wines and South African ciders :)

This is probably the best stay I have had.
The host is super nice from the beginning. Told us about all the tips around the neighbourhood and where to visit at Cape Town. Maarten offered much more than what a host needed to offer. Thank you!

A nice place to stay.
Excellent host and staff. Property located in a nice quiet area. The property has a distinct charm.
The provision of secure parking was a bonus.
I chose a small double bed room which was adequate for one, I would think it would be a bit of a squeeze for two. The bed was very comfortable

I stayed at 10 different guest houses during my trip in South Africa and Maartens Guesthouse is definitely my favourite! His warm personality, wicked sense of humour and attention to detail really makes us feel at home. He’s not only a great host but also a very kind friend. Thank you for having us!

Great service from Maarten and his team who were all very kind and helpful. He keeps his standards high and for good reason. The premises are beautiful, the location is excellent (and safe!), we loved the pool and we will miss the delicious breakfasts!
It was perfect.

A lovely, friendly oasis
Maarten, Phillip and the rest of the team were very welcoming and helpful, with very useful advice about some lesser known local attractions. Lovely breakfast served on a very nice terrace. The pool is actually large enough to have a swim (most of our accomodations in SA have had only plunge pools. Set in a nice neighbourhood, an easy walk to the shops, restaurants and promenade of Sea Point. V&A waterfront about an hour's brisk walk along the sea front. Camps Bay also about an hour in the other direction. Drinks available at a reasonable price, and use of a shared fridge. Lights stay on during load shedding! All in all a very nice stay.
A minor point, but our room on the ground floor had a large patio window, so we had to keep the curtains closed for much of the time to maintain privacy..
