I spent a perfect week at the Muize, and truly enjoyed relaxing at the property as well as talking easy walks to the beach and waterfront restaurants. The hosts are very kind and helpful, and taking some add-on tours of the Cape Town area was wonderful! Breakfast each morning was delicious too! I loved my stay and hope to return.

Had the loveliest stay at the Muize. If you like surfing and beach-going this is the ideal location. Walkable to the waterfront and close to tons of surf shops, restaurants etc. Bed was quite comfy and our room had a view. Meg was especially helpful and kind. Will return without a doubt.

I think the thing that strikes me most about my time at The Muize is it? I felt more like I was in someone’s home than I was in a commercial facility.

J'ai séjourné dans ce B&B (chambre #3) pendant 2 nuits et c'était parfait. Toute l'équipe est vraiment gentille, souriante et présente en cas de besoin. Le petit déjeuner est très bon et cuisiné à la demande. Je suis arrivée bien avant l'heure du check-in et on m'a donné ma chambre et expliqué le fonctionnement. Le Muize est idéalement situé, proche de la plage, de restaurants/cafés et de magasins. Il y a pas mal de choses à faire/voir dans cette ville, notamment le sound bath & yoga avec Leandra. Il y a d'ailleurs des dépliants disponibles parmi tant d'autres dans la salle à manger. En plus de Muizenburg, il y a quelques villes sympathiques aux alentours qui sont toutes aussi jolies.

Es war rundherum eine tolle Zeit im B&B und die Gastgeber waren sehr freundlich, hilfsbereit und zuvorkommend. Das Frühstück war super und völlig ausreichend, man konnte den Kühlschrank benutzen und hatte jederzeit Zugriff auf Getränke und im Zimmer gab es die Möglichkeit, Tee oder Kaffee zu kochen. Ich würde jederzeit wiederkommen und das B&B weiterempfehlen.

Wonderful

The Muize is simply lovely. It is approx 10 minute walk from Surfers corner overlooking the water. Our room (a standard one) was clean and airy and didn't get hot, with no need to put the aircon on. The bed big and soooo comfy. The B&B was quiet and I slept so well. But the best bit is the people. Nothing felt like too much trouble, including things like taking a shower at the end of our last day, long after we had checked out. Oh and breakfast. The full English was delicious and the daily fresh fruit was welcome. I'd definitely return.

Mys i Muizenberg!

Perfekt läge mellan restauranger, sevärdheter, stranden och golfbanor! Skön säng och bra kuddar med sköna mjuka sängkläder. Mjuka och perfekt stora handdukar. De lånade även ut badhanddukar eftersom vi hade glömt våra hemma i Sverige vilket vi uppskattade. Bra frukost med stora portioner, skuren frukt, god yogurt som tack och lov inte var någon low-fat och kaffe/thé. Rätt så trafikerad gata utanför sovrumsfönstret och havet ligger nära så det är aldrig riktigt tyst.

Friendly owners, friendly dog. Hard bed.

Owners were friendly and helpful. Gave advice where to eat and even offered to collect us after dark. Good size room with lots of light, but a bit plain, and we found the bed very hard. It would have been helpful if WiFi code had been displayed somewhere. Good breakfast.
