The Sails at Point Waterfront - 4 Sleeper Apt
I had a wonderful stay at this property! The place was exactly as described—clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything I needed. The bed was cozy, the Wi-Fi was fast, and the overall ambiance made it feel like a home away from home. The location was perfect—close to local attractions, restaurants, and public transportation. The host was incredibly friendly and responsive, offering helpful tips and making check-in and check-out smooth and hassle-free. I truly appreciated the little touches, like fresh towels and toiletries. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to other travelers!

"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!

Dolpin Coast, Ballito Paradise Holiday Entire Home
We stayed at John and Gina's holiday home in Ballito for 2 months over Christmas and New Year 2022/3. Their home is welcoming, comfortable and friendly, although may be not for the minimalist. The position is ideal for getting around the old parts of Ballito and to both Lifestyle and Junction Malls. Meaning lots of lovely places to go to eat and drink. John and Gina are both very friendly and approachable if any thing goes wrong, and react promptly to sort things out. The lovely Anna, who comes in each day to clean and help out, is precious. She is willing to help and also ensures things go smoothly.
