“Spacious, cozy, welcoming home-away stay!”
We had a wonderful stay at this property during our business trip. The cottage is incredibly spacious, well equipped, and thoughtfully prepared—especially appreciated was arriving after dark to find the lights and TV already on, which made us feel instantly welcome. The space is cozy, beautifully decorated, and very comfortable—truly a home away from home. The host was attentive, responsive, and very helpful throughout our stay. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and would highly recommend this property to others.

“Perfect location for Durban and suroundings. The house provides all you need, also for a longer stay. Area is nice and s”
The accommodation is a side-house to a big villa on a large property. It has its own entrance and place for the car. The house itself is very spacious, tastefully decorated and furnished and everything is there what you need for longer stay and also remote working. Nicole, tho host, is very friendly and helpful. Thank you for your tips for good restaurants in the vicinity. Hillcrest is very nice and there is everything you need in walking distance to the house. As it is Durban it should be noted that the security measures are very good and we had no problem at all. We will definitely come again, when coming next to Durban.
