Our cabin had many stairs. To get to the swimming pool - many stairs. To get to the private beach - for me was impossible. They said it was 50m from the parking area. That was the longest 50m I have ever walked (+- 500m) Although the walk on the wooden boardwalk was pleasant, an insurmountable sand dune without stepping stones, walkway or even rope to pull on to help with the ascent, prevented me from reaching the sea. :( A handrail at the steps in the pool would also be appreciated. Otherwise very nice place. ##### Angela Stayed 1 night in Sep 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Hristo 24 Feb 2023 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Hristo Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Loxley House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nottingham-Road-Hotels-Loxley-House.h8767953.Hotel-Information) > > [The Estuary Hotel and Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Port-Edward-Hotels-The-Estuary-Hotel-And-Spa.h11733911.Hotel-Information) > > [Ardmore Guest Farm](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ardmore-Hotels-Ardmore-Guest-Farm.h15216694.Hotel-Information) > > [The Cascades Hotel at Sun City Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sun-City-Hotels-The-Cascades-Hotel-At-Sun-City-Resort.h9515.Hotel-Information) > > [Kwa Maritane Self-Catering Chalets](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pilanesberg-National-Park-Hotels-Kwa-Maritane-Self-Catering-Chalets.h22471915.Hotel-Information) > > [Vuyani River Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hoedspruit-Hotels-Vuyani-Tented-Camp-All-Inclusive.h57157744.Hotel-Information) > > [Zulu Rock Lodge - Babanango Game Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ulundi-Hotels-Babanango-Game-Reserve-Zulu-Rock-Lodge.h53812368.Hotel-Information) > > [On The Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Durban-North-Hotels-On-The-Beach.h100470383.Hotel-Information) > > [Dolphin View Cabanas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Umdloti-Hotels-Dolphin-View-Cabanas.h10410615.Hotel-Information) > > [Sanbona Wildlife Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Barrydale-Hotels-Sanbona-Wildlife-Reserve.h1155735.Hotel-Information) > > [Sebatana Private Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Vaalwater-Hotels-Sebatana-Private-Reserve.h32459379.Hotel-Information) > > [Dragon Peaks Mountain Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cathkin-Park-Hotels-Dragon-Peaks-Mountain-Resort.h34495912.Hotel-Information) > > [Blue Marlin All-Inclusive Seascape by Dream Resorts](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Scottburgh-Hotels-Blue-Marlin-Hotel.h10019868.Hotel-Information) > > [Sun City Hotel and Casino](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sun-City-Hotels-Soho-Hotel-Casino-At-Sun-City-Resort.h527184.Hotel-Information) > > [Valley Lodge - Babanango Game Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ulundi-Hotels-Babanango-Game-Reserve-Babanango-Valley-Lodge.h31783059.Hotel-Information) > > [The Palace of the Lost City at Sun City Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sun-City-Hotels-The-Palace-Of-The-Lost-City-At-Sun-City-Resort.h392096.Hotel-Information) > > [The Cabanas Hotel at Sun City Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sun-City-Hotels-The-Cabanas-Hotel-At-Sun-City-Resort.h9459.Hotel-Information) > > [Mdluli Safari Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kruger-National-Park-Hotels-Mdluli-Safari-Lodge.h38870272.Hotel-Information) > > [Curry's Post Bed and Breakfast](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Currys-Post-Hotels-Currys-Post-Bed-And-Breakfast.h27154186.Hotel-Information) > > [Sandy Place](https://www.expedia.co.uk/St-Lucia-Hotels-Sandy-Place.h44888403.Hotel-Information) > > [Rhino Sands Safari Camp](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Jozini-Hotels-Rhino-Sands-Safari-Camp.h29303627.Hotel-Information) > > [Vuyani Safari Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hoedspruit-Hotels-Vuyani-Safari-Lodge-All-Inclusive.h36961786.Hotel-Information) > > [Gooderson Drakensberg Gardens Golf & Spa Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Drakensberg-Gardens-Hotels-Gooderson-Drakensberg-Gardens-Golf-Spa-Resort.h890693.Hotel-Information) > > [St Ives Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lidgetton-West-Hotels-St-Ives-Lodge.h15053557.Hotel-Information) > > [Margate Beach Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Margate-Hotels-Margate-Beach-Club.h9458217.Hotel-Information) > > [Pumba Private Game Reserve](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Grahamstown-Hotels-Pumba-Private-Game-Reserve.h2319463.Hotel-Information) > > [Rukiya Safari Camp](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hoedspruit-Hotels-Rukiya-Safari-Camp.h18302655.Hotel-Information) > > [Selborne Golf Estate, Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pennington-Hotels-First-Group-Selborne-Golf.h4329711.Hotel-Information) > > [The Oyster Box](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Umhlanga-Hotels-The-Oyster-Box.h2939964.Hotel-Information) ---
