De Molen Guest House
-
While De Molen Guest House offers a wealth of modern comforts, it retains its old-world charm and character. Each of the 8 rooms and 3 cottages is individually decorated and has been designed to retain the original architectural style with teak framed windows, authentic beamed ceilings and a thatched roof. Delicious breakfasts are served on your own private panoramic balcony, the breakfast room or on the sunny veranda overlooking the beautiful garden and swimming pool.
De Molen Guest House has a beautiful, well maintained 1.5-hectare garden, and is just 10 minutes from the beach and 30 minutes from Cape Town, and is surrounded by golf courses and South Africa’s top restaurants. Dutch owners, Joris and Christy Christiaans, put great effort into making you feel at home, and De Molen Guest House is the perfect base to explore the countless attractions the Western Cape has to offer.

22 guests' feedbackLoved the rooms, location and staff were so warm and friendly.
Was a great experience! Absolutely beautiful location! Hostesses are very friendly and helpful.
It was a very pleasant and nice stay with very neat rooms.
Fantastic place. Our fourth but not our last stay. The place to stay in that area.
We had a very nice stay. The view is beautiful. The breakfast could be improved, but it's a great place to stay.
It is in a peaceful environment and the view we had of mountain and sea was exceptional.
The view from the room was indescribable.
Would definitely recommend.
Most of the drinks in the Honesty Bar had expired - The tonic water expired in 2018. The breakfast was of very poor standard. The cold meats and cheeses had already started melting and curling by the time it arrived at our table. The waitress that was left to run the kitchen on Sunday morning did not manage on her own.
For us, De Molen is the ideal overnight stop for a business visit to Cape Town. Good value for money.
The access in the estate to where you live is almost impossible by car. Narrow road in which you cannot turn around and especially for older people it is very poor. Some of the amenities like the coffee maker were broken and the fridge was off, which doesn't help if you're only staying one night and some of your food is perishable. Water pressure weak.
The guesthouse managers went the extra mile to welcome us properly, even though it was after hours. The rooms were neat and convenient and had underfloor heating. I would want to stay here again.
Good food, good service. When I come back to the Cape I will definitely stay at De Molen again. What a fantastic time.
They were not aware of our booking and we didn't get the accommodation we booked.
Please do not use De Molen. They have a 4 star rating but this was very poor. The place was left to a maid and not only was she unfriendly but also unwilling to help. The so-called self-catering cottage for which we paid R1200 for the night was an old maid's room. It was new and dirty and I got asthma. The bedding and towels were very dirty and creepy. Really an unpleasant experience.
Good reception and facilities. Will use again in the future.
We were warmly greeted and treated as friends by the staff. They were highly service-oriented and both the manager, Lisa, and Lizzy, were outstanding hosts. Breakfasts were good and we loved our room.
Our stay was very pleasant but a few things were lacking: There was filter coffee without a filter paper for the machine, super pathetic water pressure, an absolutely horrible shower experience. The DStv did not work at all. The TV said "Your account is in arrears". The light in the sitting/kitchen area was loose and the light did not work.
Friendly reception, very well equipped rooms and kitchen, view of established garden which is very well maintained, next to reserve. Secure gated area, centrally located. Would love to stay here again! Thank you very much!
Friendly reception. Very spacious room and spotless bathroom. Clean linen and new towels. Good variety at breakfast. Quiet environment only field noises. A jewel for peace of mind.
We really enjoyed our stay at De Molen. The reception was warm, friendly and very pleasant.
Truly a home away from home :)
