    The location of this accommodation is truly great, it is literally across the street from the beach so you can fall asleep listening to the sound of the waves. Our room also had a bathtub facing the ocean so that you could enjoy a relaxing bath....

Shirley and Robert
RIGHT on the BEACH. Do you want a better description. You walk 20 meters and your feet is in the SAND! The rim flow infinity pool is spectacular.
Shirley and Robert are two people that loooove people and making them feel at home. Shirley and Robert have been running Guesthouses for years and understands you and want you to feel welcome at all times. We will greet you personally and definitely make sure we say Goodbye.
We are situated right across the popular beach in Glen Ashley (Umhlanga) The beach provides safe walking, and you will enjoy the vibe on the beach with fires, people laughing, sometimes a wedding and so much more. We are in a CUL de SAC that makes access to the beach very easy. We know all our neighbors, and this makes for a very friendly environment. This is a residential neighborhood.
