"The staff at the Maison-H was fantastic!! Debbie, Goda, and others plus the two dogs made our two week stay a great time. We enjoyed the breakfast meals and time in the swimming pool. Walks to the nearby beach were always a good experience. Monkeys at times in the morning were a fun surprise...dogs loved the time to bark. Uber access to nearby locations allowed us to skip renting a vehicle. Great restaurants in 5minutes by Uber. Site generator provided no issues with the local...

"The worst service we have ever received from a hotel/Bnb. It was a very hot 32 degree day and the air conditioner was broken in our room. We asked for another room when we we told the bnb was fully occupied which was understandable. We then requested that we get a refund for our accommodation because we couldn’t stay in a room that was so hot.

"The guest house is very clean and neat and the gardens well kept. Parking however was a problem, as was the entering and exiting the property. Breakfast which was included, was really disappointing. Some cereal, yoghurt, watered down juice of no discernable flavour, coffee and tea and a choice of 4 options for the hot meal. One option was Halaal and the rest were exactly the same, only the choice of sausage differed.Surely in a province rich in tropical offerings, some avocado and fresh fruit...

"Stay away from this property! I honestly don’t know how this lodge got its 4 stars. The way this lodge treats its guests is not worth even one star. We were given a shabby room, which clearly used to be a shed before. The parking space is so narrow that a taxi was asked to park within 30 cm from the door opening to our room, which implied that my family had to squeeze themselves through the opening. The management was immediately notified but ignored my wife’s request to move the taxi. Only when...

The golden beaches of uMhlanga invite you to swim and surf while the iconic red-and-white lighthouse watches over the promenade. Explore the Gateway Theatre of Shopping for retail therapy, then head to Durban Botanic Gardens for a peaceful afternoon among exotic plants.
The accommodation is very smart, comfortable clean and safe. The location is perfect for shops, restaurants and amenities- literally a 3 minute walk. The beach and famous light house are 7 minutes walk and the area is safe and well patrolled.
The hosts Bob and Sally could not be more helpful and friendly - even lent me his golf clubs but they didn’t work.

My wife and I had a brilliant 3 night stay at the Lavender Moon guest house. The owner, Claire, really cares about her guests and makes then feel special. The guest house is modern and finished to a very high standard. There is also a pool and sun lounger area which has sun from early morning to around 4.45pm (in February). The house is located almost equidistant between the beach / the majority of good restaurants and the Gateway shopping centre, so it has the best of both worlds.

Just needed somewhere to stay after arrival at the airport, before moving on the next day. The hotel was a relatively easy drive (with SatNav), though hotel wasn't clearly marked from the road, but shoeing as 88 Chartwell Drive, rather than as 'guest house.
The room was good sized, with sofa, large tv, good bathroom and comfortable bed. The room had coffee facilities, refridgerator and 'honesty bar'
Breakfast was good.
Would certainly use again, if needi somewhere to stay in Durban.

Everything you could want from a beachfront guest house. Staff very friendly and helpful, rooms comfortable and views great. Very convenient for overnight stays as close to airport

Eagle Wind Manor provides charming and quaint accommodation in a gracious old house at the top of Botha’s Hill - convenient for both Hillcrest and Kearsney College.
The beds were amazing - great mattresses and pillows, better than many top hotels I’ve stayed in. The room was cleaned and refreshed daily and the tea and coffee making facilities and toiletries were generous.
