We have stayed at Sandals before, and proof of approval is a return visit. This time we had only one night which is unfortunate- I think you need a week to enjoy the peaceful and relaxed atmosphere of this fine guesthouse, which belies its position near the noisy and bustling town that Umhlanga has become. Everything, service, staff, room, location, breakfast, pool area and garden were top class, but special note needs to be made of a well-trained, courteous, friendly and helpful staff. This is what a guesthouse should be.

Reviewed By Faberge36

Stayed 2+ weeks over 2020 Covid Christmas/New Year, and really cannot fault the place! Marcelle is a wonderful host, who cannot do enough to help when asked. Had a single bedroom to start (comfortably slept 2 adults in twin beds) and then most of stay in their 2 bedroom "cottage", which was really worth it if you want to expand a bit. 2 double bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, one ensuite, kitchen and lounge, with 2 very good sofa beds. Lovely swimming pool, beach a 100m stroll down a footpath through a locked garden gate. Loads of onsite space for car, safely behind remote controlled gates, gas and charcoal braais. Rooms and site serviced thoroughly every day. Zeranka is situated in a beautiful part of La Lucia/Umhlanga, surrounded by many lovely properties, and a short drive into Umhlanga, or even shorter to La Lucia Mall. Closest shops an excellent Spa, with an good Italian and also a Seafood restaurant. 20' drive from airport, safe surrounds, safe walking/running, whether alone or in groups.

Just returned home after a week in Durban stayed at the Honey Pot Guest House. Super little Guest house run by Bob and Heather. They were great hosts and the guesthouse was a short walk into the centre of Umhlanga Rocks town and the beach. Hoping to return to escape the cold weather.
