Easy to locate the place via GPS and very safe secured parking area. The rooms are open with enough space. Wifi also on spot...I enjoyed the place and I will always recommend it to family and friends..

It is a lovely place and good area with attractive pool and large self catering appartments and friendly staff. It is easy to walk into Umhlanga from there with no issues and so highly recommend it there

We don't even know the name of the guy that opened the gate for us he never spoke to us my husband introduced himself and but he said nothing which wasn't nice, he really wasn't welcoming at all. The place was clean, and quiet

The garden is beautiful . Our sleeping arrangement was a bit disappointing . as a couple we had two singles which they tried to merge as one but it did not work. I wish the beds themselves were firm as they tended to warble a lot.

We had booked a family room with 2 separate beds that should be air-conditioned. The air conditioning was only in the master bedroom. In the living/dining area there were 2 sofa beds. These were incredibly stained. But there were towels about it. Pillows were hard and there was no air conditioning in this area. The deck fan didn't work anymore, a standing fan distributed the 29 degrees in the room. Despite the open door to the air conditioning, it didn't work. The children couldn't sleep at all, so we brought them over at night and rearranged the couch. This was so hard that one's arms and legs fell asleep. The air conditioning is dated and roars like a truck. Came on again every 10 minutes when the stream had to be cooled. There is no B&B. No storage space in the bathroom - not even in the shower. It was also dirty everywhere and the furniture outdated. Cupboard doors and handles broken. We wouldn't come back - but the landlords were friendly and helpful, even with recommendations etc. They let us out of the reservation after one night. For the same money you get top offers with a pool and washing machine at AirBnB, for example... what a pity...

We had wonderful time during our trip. House keeping was great when we went out we would find the place clean. Everything about this place is wonderful. Might want to fix that shower curtain though as it falls off. Overall, what you see is what you get. Worth it.

Weekend gateway with the family was perfect. Good location, lovely pool, clean rooms and walking distance to beach. Staff wonderful. Would recommend for anyone looking for a lovely place to stay in UMHLANGA.

Never waste your money and book at this place. I booked at this place for April, decided to change the bookings to 16 Sep due to the KZN floods at the time. I then requested to change my booking to the 1st of Sep and my request was denied because there was no availability. To my surprise I received an email on the 2nd of Sep by the property successfully updating my booking for the 1st of Sep and also cancelling it due to a no show. I tried to communicate to them via whatsaap and they blocked me. The customer service is horrible. Dont waste your money
