I really liked the privacy we had, although there were other guests we barely saw them. And our room was very clean and my daughter liked that. Also the bathroom was spacious. Let me not even get started on our hosts! They were absolutely amazing and awesome! It was our (me&my daughter) first time in Durban and they literally went out of their way to make sure we went to as many attractions as possible over the weekend,drove us around to wherever we wanted to go and took the time texplain to us what was what when we passed an historical site. Will certainly book them again when we go to Durban again.

ThingahangwiFamily with young children - 4.4Scored 4.4DisappointingRated disappointing· 30 reviewsThe location was great and property as a whole was amazing. Pictures displayed on web/ internet showed exactly what to find there; Closer to mall and beach especially during break times one could easily move around. It is safe, fenced and locked. During my stay, it was not full at all and covid-19 protocols observed. So if you need place within budget I do recommend Durban Seaside backpackersNompumeleloGroup
