Family-friendly vacation rentals in Hillcrest

Everything was exactly as described! The space was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything I needed. Communication with the host was easy and prompt, and check-in was seamless. The location was great too—close to everything I wanted to explore. Overall, a smooth and pleasant stay. Would definitely book again!

The place was great, even better than the pictures. All the amenities listed were available and so much more. It’s a dream for young kids, because of the large pool and yard space to run around. The communication was great, all our questions were answered very quickly. The place was spotless and remained so for our entire stay. It truly felt like a home away from home. Definitely recommend 10/10

Wonderful place to stay ,Elsen is a wonderful person ,very accomodating,the lodge highly recommended

Perfect location to the beach and the centre of uMhlanga. Our family of 8 had a wonderful stay. Thank you, we would definitely stay again.

I recently stayed at a fantastic Airbnb in Kloof for a work trip, and it exceeded all my expectations. The hosts were exceptionally friendly and accommodating, which made my stay smooth and stress-free. The place was spotlessly clean and maintained to a high standard. It was also very comfortable, providing a peaceful environment to relax and recharge after long workdays. All the amenities in the unit were up to standard, ensuring I had everything I needed for a productive stay. I highly recommend for anyone traveling to Kloof for work or leisure.

Hi Wayne, accommodation was fantastic thank you. close to the pools and the beach access. Unit was neat and clean. We will definitely be coming back and bringing the little girls so they can play on the slides and pool.

Nice and tidy , close to all the lovely restaurants and shopping centres , chilled night life and safe area . The apartment had pretty much everything one would require for a stay . Good host .

Tamlynn was such a great host. The house was lovely and clean and close to many activities and restaurants. I would visit again.

Home from home! What a gem of a place. Situated in a prime location with all amenities nearby. What suited us was the birdlife and the tranquility of the setting. Shirley-Ann is a delightful host and, after a month-long stay, we are now firm friends and will stay connected. There is not a negative aspect to report: only a rave review of a rare find! We look forward to our return as we visit family and friends in Durban regularly. I highly recommend this cottage. Thank you Shirley-Ann.

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

What an amazing getaway - absolutely stunning views, walking distance from the beach and near amazing restaurants and shops. We had our toddler and our senior dog with us, and both of them enjoyed it thoroughly. Felt like home away from home. Will definitely be going back 😀 thank you Margriet for being such an amazing host.

amazing house , amazing housekeeper ,, it's a very beautiful place and very clean.

Janne's place really is a home away from home. The cottage is peaceful and surrounding by a wonderful garden that overlooks some of the best parts of Durban. We didn't want for anything, the kitchen was well stocked with essentials, the bed was large and comfy, the internet was fast, the aircon is very effective and the cottage was very easy to lock up and go. I highly recommend this spot when in Durban and will be back!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, love Hajra who really takes good care of the place. Marian is always checking in and keeps us updated. This is our third stay and will be returning. Thank you Marian and Hajra.

Place was exactly as described. A perfect place to rest a mere 10min drive away from Durban central. WiFi was exhausted on day 1 with my 3 children. I like to try new places. But Matt's place is a safe bet so will probably return. High 5 Matt.

Mark's place is awesome - very quiet complex, well maintained and the gardens are lovely. The apartment has everything you might need (except an air-con) although that did not bother us too much as we prefer the fresh air. Mark provides emergency lighting for the load-shedding, and although there is no inverter the ambiance of the quiet complex and balcony overlooking the gardens gives us city slickers time to reflect. Overall lovely place we were very happy.

I have booked places for celebrations and nothing, to date, comes close to Smith's Cottage. Their service was filled with much humility and comfort. I am more than convinced that as for now, they will always be my first choice. Thank you, Smith's Cottage.

Ryan was extremely warm, communicative, and clearly concerned that we were "okay" and had everything that we needed. He was generous, kind, and eager to work with us to find a solution for whatever came up. The apartment was PERFECTLY located for our needs: we were in town for a conference, and the apartment was a quick(cheap) ride from the International Conference Center and a lovely place to come home to (THAT VIEW!!!!) The neighborhood has tons of options for grocery shopping and some nice restaurants nearby (our favorite was Market, a beautiful place with both indoor and outdoor seating, delicious food, and incredibly warm service). Because we were in town for work, we didn't get to explore the city as much as we wanted to, but we DID enjoy having the Botanical Gardens nearby – such a lovely spot! The apartment is compact and perhaps a bit tight for people who are inclined to travel with tons of luggage, but most people should be fine, plus you don't need all that stuff, guys – there's access to a laundry room here! There's also a nice looking pool, but it was winter AND we were crazy busy, so we didn't have the pleasure of experiencing it personally. All in all, our time in Durban was made much better by having such a great home base and such an accommodating host!

We stayed for the weekend with our daughter and her friend for my daughter’s 7th birthday and for them having the beach a stone throw away was perfect they had the time of their lives!! House was clean and neat and we loved the games Nicole has at the house we got to all play as a family. The girls enjoyed their room as you can see the ocean from there. Nicole was also understanding and friendly always. 100% enjoyed our stay!

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.

Absolutely breathtaking views! I wish we could wake up to this every day. Neil, thank you so much for accommodating my family and me, especially after the sudden passing of my uncle. Your kindness in rescheduling our stay was truly appreciated and demonstrates your exceptional care for clients.

Staying at Duncan's place for our festive holiday enabled us to make great memories, enjoy the fabulous layout and convenient amenities. The pool was perfect for cooling down in the hot weather and then relaxing in the tranquil garden. We appreciated the security and safety features too. The home is on a quiet street, with great views of the sea in the distance and a bit of the cityscape. Duncan and Kate are great communicators, always available to respond to messages to make our stay as comfortable as possible. We'd love to stay again in future.

We had an unforgettable stay at this stunning house! The breathtaking sea views from every room were truly spectacular. The property exceeded our expectations in every way. The house was immaculately clean, stylishly decorated, and perfectly equipped with everything we needed. Ursula was responsive and welcoming. The location was ideal, offering peace and tranquility while still being close to local attractions and shops. We highly recommend this property to anyone seeking a relaxing getaway with stunning ocean views…

Located in a very peaceful and beautiful area. Very spacious. We enjoyed our stay.
