Wonderful and warm, just like home. Kim and Gordon are such wonder hosts and give such attention to detail. The rooms are luxurious and tastefully furnished. The layout provides for some social interaction if thats what you enjoy.

Had stayed here while on a business trip to Durban and just loved the place and the great hosts Kim and Gordon. Staying in a Garden Suite, I had access to the beautiful garden just outside with a themed waterfall. The room was very spacious and absolutely clean. The rooms are done up each day in the noon and you come back to fresh linen each time. Kim and Gordon have an extensive list of breakfast optionn and you choose what you want.........made to order. The bar, kitchen and dining room is an all-in-one socializing room. Pick your drink for the evening, jot it down in a piece of paper, and it will be added to your account. Lunch and dinner will be arranged on request from a wide array restaurants nearby. The warmth of the hosts and service of the staff will get me again to this place for sure!

I stayed for a week in June 2011. This place was fantastic. The rooms were spacious and clean. The staff made sure of that everyday. Each night before you go to bed you leave out your breakfast order. It was always warm and tasty. There is tons of secure parking. There are always tons of your favorite beers and drinks in the bar.
Kim and Gordon are great hosts!

We had a wonderful stay at Amanzimtoti, peaceful place for relaxing, safe and clean. Everything is nearby, shopping malls, walking distance to the beach and Splash entertainment world was a bonus for our little ones. We will definately recommend Amanzimtoti to other travellers,

I really enjoy the food, The owner was friendly and know how handle their customers very well, next trip I won't go anywhere but there. Its save for you and your car, they have the refreshments that you enjoy after a long day what I like most is that they call you and ask you about the next meal
