There is a dearth of good restaurants in KZN south of Durban, so Giorgio's is a welcome retreat in a sea of mediocrity. The hotel and restaurant offer personal, friendly service, a refreshing menu, and very good pricing. The view over the Indian Ocean is distant but pleasant. A very good option, possibly the best, for a stay along the... More

The young and enthusiastic staff provided excellent service in the owner’s absence. Our guestroom and bathroom was 5-star. The view to the ocean is a little distant and over the N2 motorway. We were impressed with Gorgios’s Restaurant which provided a very good choice on the menu over our four day stay.

My stay at The View was an amazing experience. I had called to ask them to make special arrangements as it was my husbands birthday, and they went above and beyond my expectation. Not only did they pay the utmost attention to detail to enable me to give my husband an unforgetable and romantic birthday surprise, but they also gave... More

Overpriced and web site does not accurately describe either the hotel, location or amenities. The food in the restaurant was poor quality and 2 of our party were ill following our evening meal.The cleanliness left much to be desired and glasses and empty food plates were left by the pool for 2 days! Sunbed matresses were taken away at 4pm... More

Booked my holiday at the view as I haved stayed here previously the service is very poor, the food is terrible and the staff really dont care about the guests this hotel is not a 5 star but actually a 1 star. Will never stay here again

Staff were friendly and... More

This hotel has a lot of potential but we had the impression that it was not very well kept. The rooms are nice but no attention to details. The breakfast is ok, you can choose from a menu with a few options. The location is terrible (in the middle of nowhere, no beach) and to be honest the view is... More

We had an early flight out of Durban so had to come in from the Drakensberg one night early. Heard on the local news about some recent issues in Durban, so was a bit skeptical about staying the night. Andrew at the Anbear Lodge in Drakensberg (see separate review) suggested that we come here. Amanzimtoti is a bit south of... More

Stayed for two nights as a base for some business on the Durban South Coast. location fine and easy to find, but ........ Suffered badly during recent heavy rains, with main access road washed away. They are in the midst of trying to repair the damage AND extend the already hap hazard development - build on severe slope across to... More
