Tesorino B&B is well situated for both holiday and business guests. Close to Umhlanga and la Lucia Office Parks. Walking distance to at least 15 restaurants and the 5km beach promenade. Close to Gateway shopping mall, Casinos and numerous golf courses. We have a sheltered tropical garden and sparkling pool. Loungers are available for our guests. Guests may use braai facilities by prior arrangement.
I have lived in Umhlanga Rocks for the past 37 years. We love to walk regularly from Tesorino 3 blocks down to the start of the beautiful Umhlanga promenade. We are keen golfers and love watching our team The Sharks play rugby. My husband still practices as a Dentist and I am a retired School teacher.
Umhlanga is one of South Africa's premier holiday resorts. We have two beautiful beaches - main beach and bronze beach which are protected with Shark nets and manned by Life savers from 6.00 am to 6.00pm. Restaurants range from fine dining to local pubs. The atmosphere in 'the village" as our High street is known is festive especially when big sporting events like Rugby tests, Comrades Marathon, Sani to Sea Cycle race, Surfing contests, the famous Durban July Horse racing event are on. Our Summers are hot and winters are very mild which means Umhlanga is an all year holiday destination.
