The place was cozy, clean and had ample space. The location was great: the house had all the appliances to make our stay comfortable. Extra gas was provided, upon request and we had additional blankets to get us through the cold.

Our team thoroughly enjoyed their stay. It is a great location surrounded by good restaurants and in walking distance from the beach. With lots to explore, it serves as a great choice when visiting Cape Town.
The views were amazing, short walk to all the basic amenities. The unit was modern, tastefully furnished and suited our needs entirely. Definitely coming back.
The apartment is beautiful, right by the sea and shops nearby.
We were allowed early check in, and given a warm welcome by staff. Perfect location on the beach, the different restaurants for your taste. All modes of transportation around, the shopping for your convenience. I will definitely book the place when I come to Cape Town.
Very close to restaurants and excellent view of the ocean. Having the patio enclosed is a bonus if you have windy weather. House is more than big enough and represents good value for money. Secure off the street parking is also great to have.
The location, near beach and shops. The kitchen is well equipped. Everything is neat. The security.

The villa is absolutely stunning – we truly enjoyed our time here. In reality, it is even more beautiful than in the photos, and our expectations were exceeded. I can wholeheartedly recommend this place. The hosts were incredibly kind and took care of everything; even our special requests were fulfilled. Thank you so much for this wonderful experience!
What an amazing place to stay. It was so relaxing with a beautiful view. This place is really worth every penny. Everything was so clean and it has everything you need, from a dishwasher to a washing machine and dryer. Will definitely go back again.
A truly luxurious and well equipped apartment in a great location. Communication and instructions were excellent and the building is very secure using facial recognition. There is also an undercover secure parking bay should you have your own vehicle.
We had a very pleasant stay. I liked the face recognition system when getting access to the apartment. The security guards were very helpful and welcoming. The breathtaking view of the ocean was my best highlight.
Perfect location, apartment had everything we could ever ask for, management was very accommodating. We absolutely loved this place.
Lovely, well equipped apartment with very friendly and helpful staff.
Spotless, had all amenities we needed and great security.

The hosts were so kind and proactive. Jodi was there to welcome me and give me the keys. The instructions were clear and helpful. The place was beautiful, comfortable and clean. It felt like home away from home.
I loved everything. The privacy and the staff. It was well located, close to Tiger's Milk, Spur and Lucky Fish and Chips.

Nicely appointed if small space, great location.
Perfect position and staff super kind.
We had a lovely time at this property. Best apartment in the best building in the area. Comfortable and well presented. Special thanks to MuiStays, the management company. When things did go wrong, they were readily available and on hand to fix things. We felt like we were in professional and safe hands. When we come back to the area we will be looking for their management company specifically.
The apartment was spacious with all the amenities needed. We had a lovely stay at Muizenberg. It was safe with nice views of the ocean. There are restaurants and shops walking distance from the apartment.
Lovely apartment with everything you need for a short stay, including a great little selection of books to read! A really thoughtfully decorated and appointed place with great security.

It is on such a great location, safe parking and good security, well maintained, the room is so comfortable and clean, the stay was absolutely lovely!
Good decor with all mod cons. Local to beach cafes and bars. Helpful, friendly security. Secured with parking.
Beautiful apartment with incredible ocean views and well appointed. Would definitely recommend this place.
It's small but very functional and clean, good location close to everything.
Everything was great! Appreciated all items carefully included within the apartment. It had everything we needed. Only recommendation would be to double up the blinds in the main bedroom, we got woken up by bright sunshine most mornings.
The apartment was clean, fully equipped and easy to access. Thank you.
Beautiful apartment, lots of space.
Very clean, good and friendly staff.
Everything was well taken care of! Friendly service. Clean. Beautiful apartment with large roof terrace (you will hear the busy traffic here). What we were disappointed with was the extra and rather expensive cost - 150 ZAR per night - for a crib.
Family & Friends
Great location and easy parking. Well appointed apartments with quality fittings, outstanding beds, and a simple and stress-free check-in process.
Comfortable three-week stay
Comfortable accommodation that suited our three-week stay well. Staff were kind, efficient and most helpful. The only downsides were some noise from a nearby restaurant and street drumming.
Home away from home
A spacious apartment, elegantly and stylishly refurbished with top-of-the-range appliances. The ocean views are breathtaking and beach access is convenient. An inverter keeps the power on during outages, and the owner was welcoming and accommodating.
Best Place to stay in Cape Town
A repeat guest — the apartment is perfect in every way. Excellent location right on the beach with restaurant options nearby, and the service is consistently excellent.
Nice accommodation on the beach
The three-bedroom apartment was easy to access and right on the beachfront, a 10-minute walk from the main road. A great spot for a family.
High quality apartment right next to the beach
A high-quality apartment in a convenient beachside location with surf shops and restaurants nearby. The atmosphere is quite laid back — perfect for a relaxed stay.
Great stay at this penthouse in Muizenberg
A beautifully decorated and comfortable apartment with extraordinary views. One small note: the listing showed king beds but the room had queens.
Beautiful views
Wonderful views of the ocean and mountains. Beach access via nearby stairs and close to hiking trails, with very good communication throughout.
Neptune's Rest
Can't say enough about it — one of the nicest apartments for short letting. The staff are absolutely wonderful and really go the extra mile. The view is spectacular and one would be hard pressed to find any better.
Beautiful
I have never experienced anything like this in my life. When I opened the door it was magical — I had tears and was overwhelmed by what I saw. The view was amazing. I would recommend this place anytime.
Excellent
Will definitely go back in future. The place is safe and clean, the staff very helpful and friendly, and other guests were friendly too. It is just opposite the beach and next to restaurants.
Amazing
Thank you for the amazing clean penthouse. E310 exceeded all my expectations. With three bedrooms and bathrooms we all had our own space, and the penthouse has views of both the sea and the mountains.
Crow's Nest review
The accommodation was very good and I will recommend the place to others. The location is very nice and the view is heavenly. The team made the stay comfortable.
Executive Service
Thank you for a top-class facility and the services provided. From the moment I booked up to check-out I received only warm hospitality. I will definitely be back for the same unit within a couple of weeks.
Excellent Hospitality
I have been to 9 countries and stayed in serviced apartments, but I have never seen the level of hospitality I witnessed here. Beautiful apartment, wonderful human relations, and sound business etiquette in every respect. You will be impressed.
Amazing
From the moment you walk into the flat, the comfort and views are amazing. I did a lot of sightseeing, though I would have preferred to just stay in the flat for the entire holiday and watch the water from coast to coast.
A home away from home
Staff were welcoming and the stay was a home away from home. A slight improvement could be the single beds. Overall it was excellent — thank you especially to Belinda, who went out of her way to make us feel comfortable.
Wonderful service from Heather and Daniel
A great stay overall. Wi-Fi had a hiccup that Belinda resolved quickly, and I would suggest slightly more frequent cleaning. Special thanks to Heather and Daniel for their attentive service.
