    I loved everything about Durban, Ushaka Merine, Wilson Wharf boat cruising, the North Beach, it was fun and refreshing, the food was great. Transportation with ubers was efficient taking me wherever I wanted to go, they helped me a lot especially it was my first time in Durban, didn't know any place. I will be coming back soon to visit other attractions.

    I wasn't happy about the walking up and down to the 13th floor each time I left or got back to the property I booked. You come back tired from a vacation. But durban was good, went to Gondolas boats at seapoint, suncoast for movies and Harbour for a braai since property don't have braai area. But south beach has become too rachet it has changed .

    Durban is always hot and humid in summer -- but this time, it was filthy as well due to a municipal workers strike. Beaches are not clean and the water suspect - ecoli levels high for a while now. Food is fantastic and inexpensive -- try Bilal for curries on North Beach and Glenwood Bakery in Windermere.

    Everything you need for business is within a 10km radius. If traveling for business, you can also take the evening to relax with a promenade walk or jog by the beach. You just need to know where NOT to go. Avoid late night, last minute arrivals at unfamiliar, untested "establishments"! Let a professional tour operator guide you on boutique hotels etc

    The property was very neat and clean. The facilities were modern and had beautiful decoration. The agents were easy to reach and ensured to answer any queries within a minute. Their service is impeccable and they strive to make sure that your stay is as wonderful as you plan it to be. I love the fact that it was situated in the heart of Umhlanga and everything is a walk away, even the beach. I really enjoyed my stay here and I will always book with Oceans Umhlanga whenever I’m in Durban.

    In a nutshell, the Marilyn Boutique Hotel is ideally located for businessmen or families having daily activities and needing a comfortable cozy room to rest in at night. The hotel´s location is brilliant and it gives you quick access to Durban and the surrounding areas. The hotel decor is beautiful and I personally appreciate my stays every time I am in South Africa.
