Decent
The room is lovely. The place is great. Beautiful views. Very affordable. Breakfastwas average. However, i didnt like that the toilet was in shower. Like literally in the shower. It got wet when i took a shower. Very uncomfortable and untidy. Also didnt like that navigating the parking area from reception is hard.

Excellent Hotel
I was throughly impressed by my entire stay at this hotel. World class luxury interior decor, absolutely delicious restaurant, excellent service at the bar, extremely kind and attentive staff, breathtaking views of the Indian Ocean and downtown Umhlana, very comfortable and spacious rooms, great pool with view. Having traveled worldwide and stayed at luxury hotels on several continents, I can say that no one will be disappointed by this hotel. Tremendous value for very cheap costs.

A good stay
The hotel is rated 4 stars and is worthy of the rating. It is an upscale hotel. Parking is on the same floor as your room with easy keyed access. As most hotels in Umhlanga they do have some noise from street racers with noisy exhausts. The hotel is on the quiet side of Umhlanga ridge. The restaurant is good with four star pricing. Personally I missed a small refrigerator in the room. Also typical of South African hotels nowadays they do not run hvac systems which did not matter much during my June visit. Options for food are limited to the on site restaurant or you have to take a ride to the Umhlanga strip about 2 Km away or the fast food outlets in and around the Gateway centre about 1.5 Km away.
