Our kids loved the different pool options, slides, playground, trampoline, and mini golf. The nature reserve walk right next door offered a great opportunity for a scenic break. The two bedroom and living room was a comfortable option for 5 travelers with great ocean views. The restaurant specials and accommodations to kids particular requests were some of the best meals we had all trip. Great option to stay when traveling through Durban King Shaka International Airport.

We loved staying here - we travelled from jnb and from the US. It would have been wonderful if they had more options for excursions to town and airport shuttle throughout the year.
Durban is an amazing destination all year round so I think that these services should be available to the guests.

This is an amazing sea-facing resort in the swanky Umhlanga area. It's not far from many restaurants and nightlife. The units are large and well appointed. Its guests appear to be mostly locals. We did not try the restaurants as the hours seemed off with our schedule. The only downside is that the staff seems unprepared for guests' arrivals - not enough people at the front desk - and then pushy when they help you. I would stay there again.

Very very strict with rules about smoking and swimming times. No pamphlet was given about kids entertainment. Cleaning staff was good. We had no balcony, had to walk far to smoking lounge.

VERY UNPLEASANT STAY AT THIS HOTEL
There was no water so the toilets stank. Arrived and could not have a shower or wash after a long trip No alternative water was offered. There was also no electricity when there was load shedding because there was no backup generator which meant that the air con did not work, lifts did not work etc.. It was a very unpleasant stay at this hotel

Satisfaction not as per expected
Hi
The sand pit area was booked for a function so my kids were unable to utilize it.
The storm caused a power outage last nite.
No ups power in the room
I checked out early as we could not make kids baby formula.
The pool had a lots of insects in the water.
Lots of monkeys as well.

Wonderful facilities
The kids and adults really enjoyed the facilities and the wonderful entertainment staff. The cleanliness of the apartment was not good. There were cockroaches in the middle of winter in the apartment. Kitchen was grimey. Microwave and fridge not clean. And the bathrooms were very dated

The Room has a central air conditioning that does not work.
Incredibly bad acoustics. Sounds from three rooms down can clearly be heard above, beside and below your room.
A client was allowed to get so drunk at the bar that he was screaming racial slurs and personally verbally assaulted myself with homophobic remarks.
The facility allowed it to happen even after I brought it to their attention.
However the physical property is very well maintained.

House Keeping is terrible here!!!
On arrival the door to the apartment was not opening and our porter even said that this door has been a issue, the room pones were down for the entire stay. Not even informing the guest that it was down. we had to walk all the way to reception should we require anything. The room was not even stocked with toilet paper after being serviced on the first day, we had to go all the way to reception to ask for toilet paper. The room housing keeping of the apartment wasn't good at all. House keeping really needs a big wake up. The floors were always dusty even after being cleaned. The apartment 907 , has black mould on the wall near the dining area. Overall the resort apartment was very neglected.
