Girls Trip
The hotel is in a great location; Right from chevk in the service was exceptional, Pumula was amazing , service with a smile 😊; lots of restaurants around; across the street there is a pick n pay and various ATM machines, close to beach with walking/running trail. One suggestion would be to upgrade/ change the TV's, they are old the picture quality is bad. Down the street there is a huge mall called Pearls of Umhlanga, it is beautiful with great shopping!! I will definitely be back and will recommend this property!!

CHARMING CENTRAL AND CHIC - AN UMHLANGA CLASSIC
I love this Hotel - it is a favourite of mine and I am acknowledged as a loyal and frequent guest by the staff and a welcome back plate of treats in my room. This Hotel is centrally located in the Umhlanga Village with everything at your doorstep. It is well maintained and charmingly designed and offers the best value of any Hotel in this area. I enjoy the energy and environment of this Hotel very much
