About this area

Cape Town

The Muize is located in Muizenberg, a neighborhood in Cape Town, and is in the suburbs and on the waterfront. Wooley's Tidal Pool and Kalk Bay Harbour are worth checking out if an activity is on the agenda, while those in the mood for shopping can visit Longbeach Mall and Constantia Village. Looking to enjoy an event or a game while in town? See what's happening at Kenilworth Race Course or Newlands Cricket Ground. Scuba diving and windsurfing offer great chances to get out on the surrounding water, or you can seek out an adventure with cave exploring and hiking/biking trails nearby.

The staff were very helpful as always. My case was delayed by the airline and the staff took it in and stored it for me until I returned from my safari. As always the views from the room and the breakfasts were great.

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.
