511 Umdloti Resort S/Catering 1bed apart Sea view
Amazing place to stay! Peet was an incredibly friendly and accommodating host. He went out of his way to make my later check-in smooth and stress-free, and his warm and welcoming nature really stood out throughout my stay. The views from the home were absolutely breathtaking—one of those places you instantly feel at peace in. I honestly regret not booking more days, it was that good. I’ll definitely be coming back to stay again. Highly recommend!

Stay on the beach - 180° Unobstructed Sea View

Beach Haven
We had an absolutely wonderful stay in La Mercy(Beach Haven)with my family! The accommodation was spotless—neat, tidy, and well-maintained throughout. The highlight was definitely the breathtaking sea views, which made every morning and evening extra special. The hosts were fantastic—so warm, welcoming, and always quick to respond to anything we needed. Communication was smooth and efficient from start to finish, which made our stay even more enjoyable. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful and scenic getaway with top-notch hospitality!

Moon River Cottage luxurious self-catering retreat
We stayed here for our 10-year anniversary with our two kids and our little dog, and it was just perfect. Mornings were misty and magical—watching the sunrise while the kids tore up and down the road on their bikes. My wife got some good Comrades training in, and we all enjoyed the fresh country air and some bird watching. The cottage had everything we needed and was super comfy and clean. We made breakfast together, sipped wine by the fire in the evenings, and just soaked up some real quality family time. Phillipa is an excellent host and very responsive to all our questions, we would love to return here someday!

Step onto the beach
We had an amazing stay at this well-equipped house that is in the most fantastic location right on the beach. A beautiful verandah and garden to watch the birds and listen to the sea. Theresa looked after us so well and Gillian was a very friendly and responsive host. Thank you for a superb stay!

Waterfront condo rentals

The Lighthouse Quarter: Heart of Umhlanga
Stunning location. No need to use your car to go to the restaurants, shops or even the beach. The apartment itself is just as stunning, with beautiful views.

Ocean Luxury at The Quays (2/4 sleeper)
I had a great time with my mother. The place was easy to find, we enjoyed our stay and the view is absolutely amazing. I am a Durbanite, but I haven’t lived home in over 12 years so it was nice to take out my mom for her 64th birthday and enjoy this lovely home as our vacation home. It was sad to leave and I wish I booked more days, we will be returning on another family vacation.

Zimbali Estate Luxury Apartment with Sea Views
Our family loved our stay at the Zimbali Suites. The location is beautiful, the apartment is well equipped with lots to do in and around Zimbali. The fridge broke down and Wendy and team arranged for an alternative within a very short time. Getting in and out of Zimbali as a short term rental is a bit of a pain with all adults needing to bring their drivers license or ID with every time but it keeps it nice and safe for everyone. Having to rely on the shuttles to get to around also takes a bit of planning but was worth the effort. Highly recommended.

Shaka Shores Panoramic views - 2 bedroom unit
I had a great time and clean , nice view of the beach , a wonderful woman indeed, I’d definitely come back again

The place is breathtaking and exactly as per the pictures. It’s peaceful, with an amazing view and close to any and every restaurant you would need. We will definitely be back

Lagoon Villa on Sea
Such a beautiful stay, amazing place with gorgeous views and easy access to beach

Ballito Beachfront Paradise *with backup power*
Loren’s place was an amazing stay. Checking in was seamless. The hosts were very welcoming. Our long trip away from home with the children felt like home away from home. The place had all the amenities that you could ask for. The views are amazing! It was a great and pleasant stay. Would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to visit Ballito.
