From the arrival until departure we felt very comfortable and enjoyed our stay very much. Upon arrival we had warm greeting from host Snezana, she was very polite and friendly. Room was clean, comfortable. There is cozy terrace upstairs that you can use any time and have a cup of coffee of glass of wine. Breakfasts were delicious and staff always was very friendly. From terrace were breakfast is served you can enjoy beautiful view on ocean. Guest house is located in a quiet and safe area with easy access to many of Umhlanga restaurants and beach. Thank you, Snezana, for the atmosphere.

Location, a short walk to town and it's excellent restaurants, bars and coffee shops. A little further on walking for the great beach and promenade. Try Fish a great restaurant, and only two minutes walk. Also for great coffee and naughty bakes and treats, try Mary and Joe's..big wow to both. We liked the guest lounge and the excellent well stocked serve yourself honesty bar..fantastic Great staff delivering a welcoming vibe

This is my favourite romantic getaway in Durban. It's located very close to the Umhlanga city centre and incredible beachfront. The rooms are luxurious, the spa is well-appointed and we always wish our stay could have been a little bit longer.
