10/10 Exceptional

The staff at this place are phenomenal!! We had only booked this for one night, but ended up staying for 4 nights because we all took turns with the stomach flu. There is a pharmacy connected with the hotel, which was wonderful. Each morning when I would go down to extend for another night, they would ask how we were doing, give us water bottles and ask if there was anything extra they could do to help out. Across the street was a small grocery store that we could pick up things.. Uber Eats works there also, but you have to meet them outside the front door. The beds are very comfortable and nice size bathroom. It is about a 5 minute walk down to Umhlanga rocks and the lighthouse. There is a mall within walking distance and also several other restaurants besides what is in the mall. Parking is covered and secured. Breakfast has so many options and is so good. I would definitely stay at this place again if we go back.

Girls Trip
The hotel is in a great location; Right from chevk in the service was exceptional, Pumula was amazing , service with a smile 😊; lots of restaurants around; across the street there is a pick n pay and various ATM machines, close to beach with walking/running trail. One suggestion would be to upgrade/ change the TV's, they are old the picture quality is bad. Down the street there is a huge mall called Pearls of Umhlanga, it is beautiful with great shopping!! I will definitely be back and will recommend this property!!
