Good breakfast, nice and clean rooms, nice people etc. But the nicest of all are those whale's breaching in front of the guesthouse. Tania and Paul are really nice people, and ideal guides for when you're visiting SA for the first time.

We had a wonderful stay at the Dolphin Inn, great friendly service at an excellent location. We were warmly welcomed on our late arrival and quickly directed to lovely place for dinner. The coffee was first class and the breakfast warm and delicious. Will definitely use this Guesthouse again when attending a Stadium event.

Both Paul and Tania are fantastics 'hosts'!! The rooms are well equipped, quality linen on the beds and decent pillows....a serious plus for me! Decent coffee and flat screen with DSTV. Stunning views with the ocean just across the road. Also within walking distance of some decent restaurants, the stadium and Waterfront. This venue is a definite for the future!!

An added bonus was watching... More

I cannot say enough positive things about our accommodations, the Dolphin Inn's proprietors, and our overall experience. My only regret is that my stay was too short. If you want charm, comfort, and accessibility run by genuinely good and caring people, you can't miss with the Dolphin Inn Guesthouse.

We enjoyed our four night stay at the Dolphin in February 2013. Paul & Tania were very helpful with advice and booking restaurants and taxis for us. Breakfasts were great. The only negatives were no air conditioning and some taxi drivers thought Mouille Point was too close to the V&A and charged a R50 minimum fare. We didn't mind that... More

I am not sure what it was that "didn't work" when you arrived late at night. We are a relatively small Guesthouse that does not... More
