A magestic view the ocean wherever you are, including the descretely placed jacuzzi. Private access to the beach with a few minute walk. The thunderous and soothing sound of waves right outside our bedroom. Warmed by a wood stove in the morning. Hearts filled with amazement and joy.These will be the memories of our honeymoon forever...

Excellent stay

We had a wonderful stay at Sigward’s Muir beach house. The view is stunning, and the beach a short walk down the hill. A memorable experience and highly recommended. Would absolutely stay again.

We’ve stayed here several times. It’s one of the most romantic places on the planet. It’s quiet and close to beautiful hiking and beach beaches. It’s one of those places you just wanna bring a guitar and a book and spend the whole day just watching the ocean.

About the host

Hosted by Sigward Moser

Host profile image
Entrepreneur in the area of technology, communication, and environmentally and socially conscious investing. For the last few years, I have been mostly focused on supporting and investing in projects around hospice and end-of-life, companies created by and for women, and lately the clinical application of psychedelics for mental health. As an adjunct lecturer, I also teach a class on entrepreneurship and start-ups in the area of management and communication in IT at MCI, an Austrian University with affiliations to Stanford, Yale, and Cornell University.
I was born in Austria where I spend about half of the year for family reasons and because it's home. I love the ocean and was lucky to have found this place while still working in Manhattan.
