I loved the outdoors seating area with a beautiful view of trees and sky at night. very tranquil. The whole house is decorated in a tasteful artistic style including the en suite bedroom I had. The room was serviced every day. The host was very accommodating and took time to sit and chat which I enjoyed. The property is very secure and close to a shopping centre with takeaway food outlets.
One suggestion is to leave some crockery and cutlery by the guest microwave, so that one doesn’t have to disturb the host each time you need a plate for your meal. Booking.com should make it clear that breakfast is an extra cost.

Ons het nie ontbyt genuttig nie. Moes vroeg op die pad gaan vir die konferensie waarvoor ons gekom het. Lana is n besonderse mens met n hart van goud!!! Sy het met ons aankoms aangebied om ons na die supermark te neem. Sy en Mojo (haar vriendelike hondjie) het ons so tuis laat voel, dit was 'n huis weg van huis ervaring!!!

The room was cute and clean , outdoor shower was also nice, it just sucks when you want to take a shower when it’s chilly out…Lana is sweet and welcoming.
The pool needs to be better taken care of. It was dirty, Lana would try clean it herself but I think she needs help with it. As a result we couldn’t even take a swim…

The room was clean, cosy and quiet, which was exactly what we were looking for. The location was excellent as it was around the corner from the hospital where a family member was being treated. Our host, Lana, was awesome 👌
Nothing we can think of

Lana is an exceptional hostess, very friendly and welcoming, and went out of her way to ensure that we were comfortable and happy. I will be back.
There is parking for small cars inside garages, but the bigger cars park on quite an incline (also inside the premises and secure); ensure that your brakes are good.

Excellent location for access to centre of Durban for my business needs. Lana is a good hostess and really makes you feel comfortable. Secure off road par puts your mind at ease. I had stayed here before and will do so again. Q
