    I wasn't happy about the walking up and down to the 13th floor each time I left or got back to the property I booked. You come back tired from a vacation. But durban was good, went to Gondolas boats at seapoint, suncoast for movies and Harbour for a braai since property don't have braai area. But south beach has become too rachet it has changed .

    Durban is always hot and humid in summer -- but this time, it was filthy as well due to a municipal workers strike. Beaches are not clean and the water suspect - ecoli levels high for a while now. Food is fantastic and inexpensive -- try Bilal for curries on North Beach and Glenwood Bakery in Windermere.

    Everything you need for business is within a 10km radius.

    Everything you need for business is within a 10km radius. If traveling for business, you can also take the evening to relax with a promenade walk or jog by the beach. You just need to know where NOT to go. Avoid late night, last minute arrivals at unfamiliar, untested "establishments"! Let a professional tour operator guide you on boutique hotels etc

    I liked Umhlanga, walking on the Pier was my favorite, the restaurants were all fine and the lighthouse is a beautiful sight. Shopping at the Gateway mall was pure pleasure. What I don't like was the water problems experienced in some areas but I believe it's due to poor maintenance of infrastructure.

    The seaview is the only thing to like, honestly the host can improve her service. This is an apartment not a hotel, access in and out terrible, communication does not state that once you get to Durban you need to go do biometrics to have access to apartment. It was horrible until we ended up booking somewhere else. Kitchen not cleaned properly asked for cleaning lady to come was told she is on lunch , no wifi, host says will bring router in the morning never did.

    The hosts, Robyn and Steve were amazing! Greeted us with a warm welcome upon our arrival, and made us feel at home immediately. The room(s) and facilities are very well-kept, clean, and are organised with any essentials that you might need. The area is very quiet. Tucked away in Durban North, it's well-located if you need to pop in and out of Durban for business, or even if you're looking at heading up north towards Umhlanga/Ballito for beach time.
