Amazing place enjoyed the beach walk with my family and our puppy

Rosewood

Ocean Luxury at The Quays (2/4 sleeper)
What can I say about Bronwyn? She has helped us how no end she’s been calm relaxed helpful helped us out a lot. The place is amazing. The view is amazing. The people are amazing. This is definitely a place to go. If you wanna relax. We will definitely be coming back here with my wife.

House on the Beach
Our stay at the beach house was absolutely magical! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed by an incredible team Khati and Mak who went above and beyond to make our stay unforgettable. Their professionalism and warmth truly stood out. The homeowner is an absolute delight—cheerful, kind, and always ready to help. The house itself is a stunning gem, offering a perfect blend of comfort and charm. But the highlight? The breathtaking view that greets you every day. We were even lucky enough to see dolphins swimming by—it was like something out of a dream! This place is a true slice of paradise. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and can’t wait to return. Highly recommended!

Spacious Cottage on secluded, child-friendly beach
Spectacular, from the location, the views, the beach access, space, and amenities, this place is heaven for those looking for a quiet, private breakaway to a pristine area just off the M4. Also close enough to Ballito for shopping. The house is perfect for families wanting to relax and enjoy the view, and really does have all you need. Debra was also an excellent host, very friendly and accommodating. Would definitely recommend!

The Pearls of Umhlanga Elegant 2 Bedroom Apartment
I don't know where to begin - views from every window, be it the sea or the beautiful city. A plethora of eateries for every palette, from high end restaurants to quick takeaway options. Shopping convenience from grocery stores to standard retail. All of this in walking distance. An example is popping out for sunscreen at Dischem, from out your door to back is literally 8 mins. And to top it all access to all the normal hotel amenities, such as room service which you can pay for on delivery. We did last minute champagne and a cheese platter 10pm at night overlooking the gorgeous city lights and the ocean. And let's not forget the slightly heated pool making a cool down plunge without having worry about icy water such a comfort. Spoils in abundance! The whole Pearls experience combined with the vibe of Umhlanga is the closest you'll ever get to Miani on an African coastline. Thank you Keith and Magesh for the breathtaking experience. It was simply unforgettable!

The Oysters Apartment
great location, clean and well serviced, very secure with boom gate security and entrance staff. there are some items that need maintenance in the apartment, like ligh bulbs, light switches etc.. but didn't impact us much. recomend it for an Umhlanga stay.

Luxury beach holiday villa
Pictures dont do the place justice. A lovely place. Easy access to the beach, 15min walk to oceans mall and tons of restaurant's. Two tvs. No complaints

804 Marbella - by Stay in Umhlanga
What a beautiful house, we loved the decor , setup , and more especially the beach water sound , definitely coming back . Thank you for hosting us

Modern, bright condo right on the beach.
What a beautiful spot! From the moment you arrive you feel as though you can exhale. Stunning place, beautiful furniture linen and every amenity. Special touches like great coffee, milk in the fridge and just all round welcoming space. Oh but the views of the ocean!! Wow! Literally a few steps away with direct beach access and access to the promenade with its host of beautiful restaurants and close proximity to shopping etc. You can’t get better value for money in such a beautiful space and location than this spot in Umhlanga! Oh and the host was the cherry on top. Warm, helpful, responsive. I will be booking again! That’s for sure. 🔥🔥🔥

Petite Maison de Plage'

Luxurious Umdloti Apartment on the Beach
Amazing location and awesome views right on the beach, within easy walking distance of local restaurants, modern up to date accommodation and all necessary equipment on hand. We had clear check in instructions and Travis, our host was responsive to any questions we had. Complimentary clean was really appreciated and we would definitely stay here again if we were in the area. Thank you for our stay.

Our Happy Place
We had a very nice stay in the flat. It is perfectly located next to the beach and not far from the shops. There is everything we need in the flat. It was very clean and the house keeper is doing a good job. We didn't see Shelley during our stay but she was very quick to answer to any of our queries by email. thank you very much. We'll definitely come back !

Beach Front House - Back up Power & Water
I’ve been to Durbs a few times, however this has by far been the best experience ever. From the friendly host, genuinely caring about the well being of clients and not treating any engagement as a transaction. Proactively communicates, checks in regularly throughout the stay, to the clean and breath taking environment.. What a pleasure it’s been staying over at this place…

Spacious with Sea Views and close to the Beach
we had the most amazing holiday, I have fallen in love with Umdloti. The beach water was lovely and warm, the weather was just perfect and everywhere was so easy to get to. The apartment was just perfect, the views in the morning was to die for. Thanks so much for sharing your home with us, we loved it.

Exclusive Beach Apart. OFF THE GRID!
I had such a wonderful stay here—one of the best Airbnb experiences I’ve had. The apartment is exactly as described (if not better): tastefully decorated, immaculately clean, and full of thoughtful touches that really elevate the stay. A bottle of wine and a selection of Nespresso pods were waiting for me on arrival, which was such a lovely welcome after a long journey. The location is peaceful and quiet, with a beautiful sea view that you can enjoy right from the upstairs lounge It felt like the perfect retreat, yet it’s still just a short drive to shops, restaurants and the beach is opposite! The hosts were brilliant—friendly, responsive, and clearly take great pride in making guests feel at home. Everything has been done to a really high standard, from the linens to the kitchen equipment to the little design details. It’s the kind of place where you instantly relax and know you’re in good hands. I’d come back in a heartbeat.

Lady Ellen Beach House Umhlanga
Had a great stay at John's place. Will definitely be back. His staff were super helpful and friendly. Would definitely recommend.

#BeachSpot House
Lyn is nothing but an exceptional and friendly, attentive host. She was very accommodating and made it so easy to chat to her about a few personal hiccups we experienced before arriving at her place. The staff are also so friendly and super helpful. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Lyn you are a darling! Thank you for being the amazing person you are!

Spacious 2Bedroom: 1min to beach & amazing views
The place was as per the pictures and as described by host. It had beautiful views and was close to most places. The only issue was that we had to wait for the cleaning team to finish and couldn’t check in on time.
