    It's ok though the mall closes too early even on holidays.

    It's ok though the mall closes too early even on holidays. Richards Bay is clean but when you at the open parking's of the Boardway by Bluff meat entrance, it's super untidy it's like you have moved to a different place all together. It's a little bit scarry to park and leave your car there.

    My favorite place was being at the bon hotel and Zula.

    My favorite place was being at the bon hotel and Zula. I loved the hotel food and neighborhood shisanyama. Not to forget the ice-cream nearby the hotel it was very nice. My family and I enjoyed the boat cruise and being, and we also drove to St Lucia for trip to hluhluwe to see the big five. It is not very far though it's 1 hour drive from Richard's Bay.

    Not much to complain about.

    Not much to complain about. The town is just as beautiful, especially the trees surrounding the whole town, it makes it very beautiful. The beaches are just beautiful for those of us from inland. Unfortunately, the Airport remains the same, just pathetic.

    Beautiful beach potential, caring local community.

    Beautiful beach potential, caring local community. Good roads, LOTS of speed control. Unfortunately the victim of neglectful municipality, safety concerns and limited paying traffic causing a decay of local businesses and infrastructure.

    Richards Bay is a clean beautiful Town. The cherry on the Cake is the Bay nd Pelican Island beach. The most beautiful clean beach is South Africa. I go there every year just to hve some of the beach nd swim in the bay. The nature reserves are also the best in South Africa, imagine yourself driving besides the zebras....awesomeness

    It was a total disaster. The place is not ready yet. I don’t know how it was put on booking.com. I went o Richards Bay with my kids just to be told that the place is not ready, it is not furnished and they don’t know how they were put on booking.com. I tried to contact Booking.com and to my surprise it is as difficult to communicate with booking.com as it is easy to book on their platform. I am only hoping that I will get my money back for this booking as I had to plan an alternative accommodation for my entire family.

    The staff were as usual very friendly. It's in the nicer parts of Richards Bay and with it being on the waterfront, there is a lot of options on where to go out instead of staying indoors.
