I’ve stayed at a fair share of AirBNBs since becoming a member in 2013. And by far, Shafiek is the most hospitable host I’ve ever had. He was incredibly kind and willing to share not only his home and tips on Muizenberg, but his knowledge and experience on life. The conversations and the wisdom he shared with me honestly made me wish I could’ve stayed much longer! The way Shafiek treats his guests is the epitome of what the AirBNB experience could be like in its peak form - an open, cultural exchange.
If you’re looking for a place that’s just footsteps to the beach and close to all of Muizenberg’s hot spots, you’ll certainly enjoy staying at Shafiek’s. But if you’re also open to meeting new people and have meaningful conversations with them, you’ll get so much more from staying with Shafiek.
