Beach Holiday Home, Southbroom. Solar Power & H2O.
Great value for money, great location quick walk to the main beach and local shops restaurants / shops. Fred probably the friendliest and most responsive host I’ve ever worked with. Jacuzzi is a winner and the unit is spotless. Thanks Fred, we’ll be back for sure!

5 Bedroom San Lameer Villa
Amazing stay. Gaye was so easy to communicate with and she was accommodating. Will definitely be back

Beachfront | Modern | Luxury
Ive been coming to Umhlanga for 30 years and Jacque's place is by the far the best Ive ever stayed in - spacious, clean, right on the beach. Truly amazing, thanks!

Elm Tree Garden Cottage
We had a wonderful stay! The place was great value for money—clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. David was an excellent host—very responsive, friendly, and made us feel welcome from the start. We’d definitely recommend staying here and would love to come back!

Imani Bush House
Fantastic place to stay in a really tranquil setting. I would definitely recommend it if you love nature and animals and just want to escape the chaos of the city for a few days.

Luxury at 230 (Cottage)
I cannot say enough positive things about my experience staying here. Nikki and Tom went above and beyond as air b&b hosts and truly made my experience amazing. When I landed in Durban, they picked me up from the airport and after learning that my luggage was stuck in Joburg, they took me to the store so that I could get some toiletries and food for the day. They were so patient and warm in every interaction that I had with them. When we lost water, they brought me a 5 liter jug and were extremely communicative any time we lost water or electricity. I was in Durban for two months and struggled to find people to travel with and they literally adopted me most weekends to hang out with them at their beach club. Regarding the air bnb itself, it was the perfect size for me. It is in the safest neighborhood with great restaurants and a bakery within walking distance! There's fiber internet and a washing machine. Loved this little cottage, love Nikki and Tom, and love Durban!!

4 Bed modern beachfront apartment
Gary is such a pleasant host, easy reachable and very responsive. Beautiful place and surroundings. Beach front view is the best part. Would highly recommend!!!!

CodsView Beach House, Pennington
We had the most magnificent stay in Bev and Phil's place - everything was amazing! It is impossible to put that view into words - and to wake up to it every morning was just unreal. I had to pinch myself every day to make sure I wasn't dreaming. Everyone in the family had the best time - the kids, the grandparents, and the pups included! Thank you Bev for being so welcoming, and just so lovely to deal with. You made our stay even more special. We can't wait to come back.

Magical views of sea & forest, 1 min walk to beach
Sublime location with wonderful sea views! We had a really super time away!

Romantic Rondawel on the forest's edge
A truly charming stay! The cozy fireplace and unique outdoor shower added so much character to the experience. The kitchen was well-equipped with everything we needed, and the location was incredibly convenient for getting around. Angela was friendly and helpful, making us feel right at home. We’ll definitely be back!

House at Glengariff - Rare Country Escape
Robin is probably the best Air BNB host we have encountered. She was just lovely and communicated with us from start to finish. If you are looking for a quiet, beautiful farm-stay on a real working farm, in a large, beautiful old house - this is your spot!

Stoneyhall Farm Log Cabins
Nice place and beautiful area!!

The Goodland Honey Cottage - Newly Renovated
Absolutely loved staying here. My girlfriends and I needed time away from the city, to relax and have a mini staycation and the honey cottage allowed us to have that experience! Definitely coming back

Life's a Beach (Fisherman's Cove)
Place is nice and clean, great seaview, ample space and safety for our dogs, very helpful host and staff. Gareth approved our stay after another host cancelled on us last minute. The place is great. No complaints about the venue, host or team everything was fantastic. Just note that the roads are a little rough in the area.

Wowhaus - Courtyard Apartment
Stephanie was extremely welcoming and open to suggestions regarding our pets when we have to leave them whilst we were attending to shooping etc. She communicated everything well and was easy to talk to. We enjoyed our stay and hope to visit again.

Wyford - Poplar Cottage
Absolutely love this place, it’s a gem, very peaceful and looks just like pictures! I also that the coffee station had rooibos, a lot of places will have coffee and normal tea, but never rooibos, Wydford had it all! The hand and body wash were also a dream 🥹! The only thing I would ask is that they have it on sale like the canned beetroot and pickled beans . A place I would highly recommend, even in winter as there is an electric blanket and extra blankets in the bedrooms 😌

6 Sleeper 180’ seaview @ Illovo Beach Club
My family and I recently had the opportunity to stay at Elise's place, and we felt right at home! There were tons of activities for the kids, and the staff are so, so friendly. Both Elise and Courtaney were great hosts, friendly and attentive. We will definitely be booking again. A true gem, a home away from home 🏡, 😊

Cottage by the Sea. Early check in : 8.30am
We had a wonderful stay at The Cottage. The space was comfortable with homely amenities. The morning view of the ocean and the sunrise was special. We had dolphin sightings on both days that we stayed. We also spotted beautiful birds. We would definitely come back again. Thank you Bev - you have a special spot and your attention to detail made the cottage extra comfortable.

San Lameer - Fun in the Sun Villa 2831
The villa was absolutely comfortable and well equipped with everything you need. Plenty of activities in the San lameer estate and close to the beach which made it the perfect getaway for the Easter weekend. Great communication by Diane and Monty with everything explained well in advance. My family had a great time! Thank you!

201 Bermudas Ocean Suite, Umhlanga. Back up power
We had a lovely stay. Apartment great, location superb and hosting service excellent. Thank you Debs and company.

Orchard Manor Unit 1
It’s always a pleasure to stay at Orchard Manor. If you’re an animal and nature lover this place will not disappoint. We were accompanied by two very friendly cats, briefly greeted by a herd of Zebra and always surrounded by stunning views of the mountains.

Secure Ballito, Simbithi, solar power always on.
Jan’s has a beautiful home in an amazing estate filled with loads of things to do. Jan was very helpful and generous.

Salt Rock Beach House, Rascal’s Rest
Wow, what an amazing house! Stunning with plenty of room and right on the beach. Everybody who went just loved the place and can't wait to go back. Isabel and Zanele were just wonderful and helpful in every way. We will definitely be making a booking there again. Thank you so much, Tessa. We could not have found a better place for our break.
