    Prime location close to the Umhlanga village and just a short walk down to the promenade and beach. The unit also has a beautiful big balcony with sea views, and comfortable beds with air-conditioning in the rooms for the Durban heat. The cleaner (Maria) is also superb - friendly, professional, and hard-working. The host also arranged a cot for our daughter which was a thoughtful service.

    I liked nothing. No signage to say, "this is the property". Keys was left in a post box outside the street. Had to call a number not assigned to booking.com. struggled with a contraption containing the keys to the room out in the street. Can you believe it? What a way of doing business. Shame on you, Ocean Rock Villas.
