“At risk of sounding clichéd, it really is home from home”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 January 2012

My accommodation of choice whenever I'm in Durban. The rooms are comfortable and well appointed, the hospitality is excellent without being "in your face". The pool is great for evening skinny dips and the roof view of Durban is breathtaking.

Room Tip: All the rooms I have slept in are great and have heated towel rails (not that it is necessary in sum...

“Exceeded our expectations”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 January 2012

We booked the accommodation for a quick break-away weekend for my Birthday, not thinking or expecting too much, but we were pleasantly surprised from the moment we arrived. Everything from the hospitality, welcome drinks, room, facilities... was great. Except the weather. But this just means that we will have to go back another time when the weather is better, and be able to try out the jacuzzi properly :-).

“An excellent place”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 December 2011

We stayed a week in the Durban View and have only good things to say: The hosts Dave and Llewellyn, assisted by the ever-smiling Caroline, go out of their way to make their guests comfortable. The house is stylish, clean, has a small pool and a cool roof terrace with jacuzzi, a nice downstairs bar and free WiFi. Breakfast is is great and often includes home-made delicacies. The view from the front rooms and roof terrace is indeed stunning, the neighbourhood is residential, green and friendly. VERY happy with this choice, thoroughly recommended!
