Lovely Hotel

Excellent beachfront location. Rooms are tired though and need a bit of an upgrade for the star rating of the hotel and price you pay. It was also very busy with external guests booking events, so we felt 'watched' when we were at the pool. They could do with sectioning off the two sides and only allowing day visitos on the reception side of the hotel and residents on the other.

Relaxing stay with a few spa treatments. Staff were very friendly and food was delicious. The views are so stunning and it was fantastic to be able to do a walk on the beach and a dip in the pool before dinner. Stayed in the sea view double room which had a lovely balcony to sit and watch the waves and sunrise and sunset. Highly recommend.

Lovely beach holiday

Rooms were spacious and clean. The staff were friendly and attentive to our needs. The nearby swimming beach and granny pool are just a short walk away. Beaches were clean and not to busy. And sipping on sundowners in the pool overlooking the beach creates a perfect end to the day.

Disappointing stay

Very disappointing. Room wasnt clean, floor had beachsand. Shower water leaked all over floor. Room stuffy and need to be updated, very outdated and tired. Parking was an issue, eventually parked in road. Club next door, had blaring music playing all night. Not worth money at all. Will not recommend to anyone

We stayed here for two nights in December. It exceeded our expectations in every way. The property is located on a beautiful beach and we fell asleep to the sound of waves every night. The staff were awesome - friendly and top notch. We ate our meals there instead of going out as we were enjoying the experience so much. I’d definitely stay again next time in KZN.

One night stay and a nice dinner.

I picked this place because the restaurant is good. I needed a place by the airport since I flew in at night and didn't want to start my long drive to my final destination in the dark. My dinner at Two Shrimp was phenomenal, I had the filet. The room was great, the service was great. Security is good, guests get to park inside the walls so your car is safe.

Perfect beach getaway

Wonderful stay! Beautiful facility with lovely rooms and views. I stayed in an ocean-facing room and couldn't get over the view each morning. The staff are incredibly friendly and accommodating, and I felt truly valued as a guest. The food was fantastic, and I decided to stay in for dinner twice instead of going out, just because the food was so good. Would stay there again and again and again. The only downside - which is super minor given how amazing the guesthouse is - is that it's in a neighborhood without much to do. However, embrace hanging by the beach each day and taking an affordable Uber or cab ride to the shops, and it's not even a real problem. Amazing hotel!

Hotel is right on the beach and the service from all the staff was excellent. Breakfast on the terrace was really good value for money. The only slight criticism is the light up wall switches that shine throughout the night other then that this hotel is excellent
