Guesthouse vacation rentals in uMhlanga

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.

Thanks so much for being being such a wonderful host to my daughter for the month long stay with you Janina. Sincerely appreciated that the accommodation is safe, secure for her. Sincerely garners my our recommendation as a place to stay. brilliant amenities and close proximity to what we needed.

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.

Beautiful garden house with pool and ocean view. We really enjoyed working remotely from there and then relaxing in the evening or having a braai with the awesome hosts (and their lovely dogs) We had everything we needed. Total recommendation this one!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Annaleen's place! She was incredibly thoughtful and made sure everything was perfect for our visit. Her attention to detail was evident, yet she completely respected my privacy, creating the ideal balance for a relaxing and comfortable experience. The space is exactly as described and the backyard path to the very private beach was very welcome over the festive season. I truly appreciated her warm and considerate approach. I would highly recommend staying here to anyone and hope to return again soon! Thank you, Annaleen, for being such a fantastic host!

Every aspect of our stay was delightful. We really enjoyed our time in Ivy Cottage, and felt totally at home. The view is spectacular and panoramic, making our braai (BBQ) in the garden so memorable. Speaking of which, the provided Weber appears to be new, and such a welcome amenity given the location. Everything has been thought of: the kitchen is very well stocked with good quality crockery & cutlery, the bathroom kitted out with shampoo, conditioner, lotion, etc. The bed is extremely comfortable with crisp & luxurious percale linen. Everything was spotless when we arrived. The TV has Netflix with a separate profile for the Ivy Cottage, so we could watch movies without having to have a personal account (a rarity, in our experience). Megan is a wonderful host and was the most responsive we've ever dealt with. I have no reservations in wholeheartedly recommending Ivy Cottage for your next stay in Umhlanga - we're certainly hoping to have an opportunity to stay here again!

Staying at The Cottage was a lovely getaway from the hustle and bustle, with everything we could need as a group of 3 staying together. The home itself was welcoming and safe, and we truly felt right at home. The verandah and garden were an added plus on sunny days when we could sit outside and eat.

Lovely view of the harbour from the veranda, and the host was also very responsive to any needs I had during my stay.

The stay was lovely. The host is very responsive and very helpful at all times. The accomodation was exactly as per the pictures with all amenities one may need.

Awesome getaway @ the right price, just watch out for the monkeys they are sneaky little rascals. We had a well-rested stay and will recommend it to anyone looking for a place sleep and explore during the day.

Quiet, private, and spacious place. You can’t beat the freedom you get staying here. The location is a plus if that is the vibe you’re looking for. It even has a terrace! I’d love to come back in the future. Thank you.

Amazing time i had, everything is just perfect. Booked an extra night.

Johnny and Pat were welcoming and friendly. The view was spectacular!👌🏻 We could walk to the beach, with a beach cafe - nice Bunnychows 😊. The cottage had absolutely everything we needed. They also had a nice book, with local recommendations. We had an amazing weekend. Definitely going back, and will certainly recommend to all my family and friends!

David’s place was even better than the pictures… Our booking was very last minute, but David was extremely helpful. The unit was also very private!! We loved everything about the place♥️

A very clean and spacious room, perfect for a couple who just wanna have quiet time for themselves. The ladies helping out are sooo nice.🥰 The place is surrounded by nature and you literally hear natural sounds. I would 200% recommend this unit for you. I'll be coming back again before the year ends. 🥰

I really enjoyed my stay here — it’s such a peaceful and private space. The quiet surroundings and natural beauty, with all the plants and flowers, make it the perfect spot to relax and unwind. It honestly gave me the breather I didn’t know I needed. I was genuinely sad when I couldn’t extend my stay, but I completely understand as someone else had booked. This place is a gem — I’d definitely love to come back in the future.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!! A very beautiful place with everything you need from a short to long stay.

Thank you for the stay at your cottage and assistance with the extra fence over the gate it really helped us to relax and feel at home knowing our small dogs could not get out. Our dogs are escape artists. Host is friendly, helpful and attentive. We would happily recommend this to anyone looking for a beautiful getaway in the Durban area.

Amazing place, looks as good the pictures. The bed was the highlight of the stay, most comfortable Airbnb bed I’ve ever experienced! Will definitely book this space again when in Durban.

Once again the perfect place for business stop over in Durban. Thank you!
