Natalie & Talik Welcome to 50 Galena in Johannesburg or 85 Manor in Durban
Manor Gardens are the oldest area in Durban this is one of the first building was build 70 years ago from the original granite bricks. the house faces the valley and in the night millions of light like a candles make this place very peaceful. During the day time valley view is very beautiful. We fully redesign and modernize the property to make it modern and cozy for today use . The construction of the building keep rooms chill during the hot summer and warm in the winter . we are in a very security surrounding., beside the neighborhood watch we do have security company patrolling the area. Parking in the garage. Very central. only 10 minutes away from the port. The major road arteria is here.10 minutes away from the beach. House a re located in the Berea forest and velvet monkeys a running on the trees. Access to the rooms though the garage and same steps.
Welcome to the Gem of Manor . This is unique house was build 70 years ago then the Durban was only developing. this is the oldest area in the Durban. Very central and very security. Peacefully. the main comment from the visitor is" the air and the view ". the air is carrying the breeze of the ocean and wetness and sand is left on the beach. Breathing with full lungs will take all the stress away all warries away .The main attraction in Durban is beach. only 10 minutes away from the beach and after the beach it is nice to get home., we build the place home away from home.
Durban weather are welcoming people all year long! Along the beaches in Ushaka where is a shop inside for your long board hire.. Next to Ushaka the water most of the times are quite as it is the gate to port., the same place where is a lot of places offering surf and dive lessons but a half mile away the waves are more ruff so next to the mini Town where is shop where you can hire suite and board and jump from the pier ,because locals do that. We are in Glenwood area and around the corner where is Florida rd., Florida rd is main road for the restaurants on any mood and any taste. Starbucks on Florida., Tacos on Florida., Paul's hand made ice cream will steal your heart .Macaroon place on Florida rd. The Glenwood bakery bakes the most tasty bread they have, rye bread, sweet potato bread and etc. Fridays sometime Glenwood bakery do Pizza specials. Helen-Josef rd in Glenwood have Chinese food ., same street I can recommend O'Bryan's and Stella sport club. The Kwazulu Natal Society of the Art . Unique coffee roastery "The Bean Green". Get into the local places and feel the relaxing atmosphere of Durban life.
