Welcome to SongBird – a beautifully styled Bali-inspired home in Simon’s Town, where indoor/outdoor living and sweeping False Bay views set the tone for a truly memorable coastal stay.

At the heart of SongBird is the open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area, complete with a separate scullery/prep space. Large stacking windows open up the living area completely, blurring the line between inside and out.

Step onto the upper deck and you’ll find ocean views that stretch across False Bay. Relax into the comfortable outdoor seating, fire up the gas grill, or soak in the outdoor bath under the stars.

Up front, a charming coffee patio offers a quiet spot to start your day with the sound of birdsong and the sea breeze.

⚠️ Please Note

- Our home is set on the edge of a beautiful wildlife reserve, so you may occasionally spot some of the local visitors — including baboons who wander down from the mountain. They’re curious, not dangerous, and will happily move along if left undisturbed. We’re fortunate to have a fantastic baboon ranger team who walks with them guides them back up the mountain. For your comfort, we simply recommend keeping doors and windows closed when you’re not in the room or house, and avoiding interaction with them.
- Not suitable for children under 12 due to open windows
- Quiet neighbourhood: no loud music after 10pm (weekends) / 9pm (weeknights).
- the outdoor bath has hot water but it not a traditional hot tub / jacuzzi and is not wood fired. It's got hot water coming out the taps. Big enough for 2
