This place is simply amazing! Lovely host, Martha, was very welcoming and helpful. I loved design of this place, rooms are charming. Got cute room for myself, not so specious, but cozy with nice shower and Terrasse. Rooms are tidy, no strange smell or something disturbing. Bed was big and comfy. Beautiful common area and garden with pool. They have very nice dog and chickens at yard. To get to beach is 3 min through narrow passage. And beach is beautiful and deserted. To get to Umhlanga center and restaurants is 5 min. Take Uber, it’s very convenient. Looking forward to come back again 🙏☺️

Everything was on point. The host, the facilities, the rooms, linen, etc. They have a couch covered with fabric material but it's sooo clean, whole room & bathroom smells fresh. My car was parked inside the garage. I even got a beautiful gift. Thank you
