24A Point Bastille - 3 bed, 2 bath
We didn't get to meet Henno, and the person who was going to meet us was busy and sent someone else instead. The parking is difficult to get into. Thank goodness we had a small car. The accommodation is beautiful. Lovely views of the harbour and canals. We had DSTV so we could watch the rugby. The kitchen had a good selection of appliances. Bathrooms were clean. Loved the lounge suite and blankets on the couches were were cosy.

Grand Mer Apartment
Probably the best place to stay in Ballito, right on the beach with a beautiful balcony. We'd definitely stay here again for a next visit !

511 Umdloti Resort S/Catering 1bed Sea view Wow!

Umdloti Cabanas Beach Apartment 2
We love Jess’ cabana - we have stayed there twice now and hope to come back again. It is an amazingly beautiful flat in a fantastic sea side location with glorious views of the ocean from every room.

Coastal Bliss Lodge with Direct Beach Access
It is a nice and beautiful place on the ocean shore! Specially recommended for couples and families .

Ocean Whisper I - Back up power, 2 Adults & 2 Kids
I had a great stay at this Airbnb! The place was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. The hostess was always helpful and quick to respond to any questions I had, which made the experience even better. I’d definitely recommend this spot and would stay again!

"Endless Summer" Tropical Beach Villa in Umdloti
Our stay was next level. From check-in to check-out, everything was on point. This is a real gem. Corrine's communication was so good; she went the extra mile to make our stay even more special. Can't find fault with anything. We will be back!

"THE" BEACH HOUSE, 75 Nkwazi drive, Zinkwazi beach
Duncan was amazing. Great location. Could do with a line to hang beach towels and costumes.

Secure Ballito, Simbithi, solar power always on.
Jan’s has a beautiful home in an amazing estate filled with loads of things to do. Jan was very helpful and generous.

Berg Haus
What a great weekend away with friends and the place had everything we needed and more for the kids as well. We are already talking about making this an annual trip! Thanks Melissa for letting us use your beautiful home

Escape with Berg views – autumn to winter charm
We stayed the night before Sani2C began at Glencairn Farm, and what a fantastic surprise! The house was perfectly located to the start, so easy for registration and arrival the next morning. The scenery is beautiful from the patio over the water in the morning. It was a perfect nights rest before embarking on 3 days on a bicycle and in tents. I will definitely be back in the future.

Sovereign Paradise - 22 Sovereign Sands
Great place ,Fantastic Host, quiet location away from the crowds would definitely recommend.

THE BEACH HOUSE Pennington
The Beach House was everything I hoped it to be. Spacious enough for a comfortable family gathering for a special occasion! The sunrise view from the Beach House on a clear morning is something dreams are made of and out of a picture book. The dolphins put on a show on the last day which then meant all the boxes for this holiday were ticked! The pool and lapa in a protected area an added alternative and bonus. Thank you for a dream week away... I hope to be back again in the future!

Gourlay Beach house. Direct beach access.
We had a wonderful stay with family, including our 2 young kids. The view is incredible! The house is beautiful, nice and clean (Jenny the domestic worker helped keep it that too throughout our stay). A short (if somewhat steep) walk down the path to a lovely beach complete with rock pools and a small river that the kids really enjoyed. There is large braai and also a webber which was really handy for feeding a big family. We arrived early and Nadine was kind enough to allow us flexibility in the check in time which is always so appreciated. I hope we will be back!

The Lighthouse Quarter: Heart of Umhlanga
A very nice place in Umhlanga, conveniently located with very nice views. Responsive hosted who readily assisted when l was struggling to find the place. Would highly recommend for solo and family accommodation.

Durban Point Waterfront, Cosy Harbor View Studio
Thank you Khosi, I have booked in the area but it was the first time with you. Lovely area and place 💐

Penthouse Apt With Amazing Sea View
We had an amazing stay at this gem on the Dolphin Coast! The apartment is beautiful and perfectly located—just steps from the beach and tidal pool. The sea views are breathtaking, and we loved spending time on the verandah overlooking Chakas Rock. It’s ideal for a couple or small family, with everything you need for a relaxing, self-catering holiday. The complex is safe and quiet, with restaurants just around the corner. Highly recommended for a coastal getaway!

Zimbali Estate Luxury Apartment with Sea Views
We had a wonderful experience staying here. Our host went above and beyond, providing invaluable advice on places to visit in the area, and every recommendation was spot on! The house was also exceptionally clean and had a lovely, warm atmosphere. We truly appreciated her hospitality and would definitely stay again.

Seaview Apartment in Warner Beach
We had a lovely stay at Seaview. The views are awesome and everything that we needed was provided. Even the emergency light and gas stove when loadshedding was suddenly implemented without warning

Lagoon Drive Upmarket Beachfront Nest
I spent 1 night at the house and really had a great time, the place is nice and clean with nice sea views. Paula has been an amazing host, very responsive,I strongly recommend it and will definitely come back for a longer stay.

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

Ballito Beachfront Paradise *with backup power*
I HIGHLY recommend this venue. It is perfect for a small family trip. The unit is spacious, fully equipped, and even has a washer/dryer. It is just steps from the beach/boardwalk, and the host provides helpful items like beach towels and beach chairs. Just note that it’s on the top floor of the building, so pack accordingly since you’ll need to carry your bags. Loren is an excellent host, fully responsive, and so very helpful. There are multiple beachside restaurants less than a 5 minute walk from the building, and lots of rock pools and safe swimming areas along the beach. If you are looking to stay in Ballito, this is the place.
