    I stayed in a family room, and it was spacious. My room had a window from where I could see the beach. The bed was comfortable. The room had a fridge, kettle and it was supplied with coffee, tea, sugar, milk. No water was provided in the room. The bathroom was a comfortable space, and it was supplied with shower gel, soap, shampoo, and towels. The room also has a flat screen TV with some DSTV channels. The WIFI was free and had a good speed. The hotel location is 5 mins away from the beach and beachfront.

    Friendly and helpful staff. Hotel was very very clean. Breakfast was absolutley amazing. The hotel is situated at the most perfect spot in Umhlanga ie walking distance to the beach / right next to the new and exciting Oceans Mall. Surrounded by plenty of lovley restaurants to choose from. We extended our stay for another night and the staff were most helpful and happily assisted us. We as a family will definitley return to Protea Hotel by Marriott Durban Umhlanga some day soon.

    The hosts, Robyn and Steve were amazing! Greeted us with a warm welcome upon our arrival, and made us feel at home immediately. The room(s) and facilities are very well-kept, clean, and are organised with any essentials that you might need. The area is very quiet. Tucked away in Durban North, it's well-located if you need to pop in and out of Durban for business, or even if you're looking at heading up north towards Umhlanga/Ballito for beach time.
