  • I had a lovely stay here , the reason being is that you in the centre of where everything is happening.

    Unique Qualities: Ideally situated next to the upmarket Gateway shopping and entertainment complex, City Lodge Umhlanga Ridge blends into the surroundings of its modern environment. Durban is just minutes away on the adjacent freeway, as is the city’s
    international airport. The five-storey hotel is in the heart of the new business district that has emerged in the Umhlanga area. It is also a short drive from Umhlanga’s popular promenade and beach front.

  • This is an excellent place just to get away and relax. It`s an excellent place if you travelling with family and want to escape the busy city life.

    Unique Qualities: Zimbali Lodge is a 5-Star boutique hotel offering five-star luxury accommodation, and is decorated to complement the natural surrounding forest. The classical architecture is accentuated by warm wood and russet autumn tones. The bathrooms are luxurious and feature Victorian baths from the turn of the century. Each room has a mini bar which is well stocked with a selection of beverages, light snacks. Butlers are on hand to attend to the guest's every need including room service and a very select ensemble of delicious snacks and light meals grace the room service menu.

  • I enjoyed my stay here at Club Sun and Surf. The apartment is in a safe and secure complex and in a really great area. The Apartment I stayed had a nice sea view and is self catering. The apartment was a 1 bedroom apartment with a very nice Bedroom , Nice Bathroom which included a shower ,toilet and wash basin. The lounge area was quite nice and it has a small kitcken equiped with a electric frying pan , kettle ,toaster , fridge and so on.

    There is a pool at the end of the complex with lovely sea views from there.

     I had a flatmate from Durban when I was in London last year. Thanks for showing where she is from.

     Very good tips and some good suggestions for me. Your Waning tip makes me smile, I am sure I'd feed the monkeys there, the nearest ones to my place live in Gibraltar - over 2,000 km away.
