I had an amazing stay at Zuider Zee! I only spent one evening for a work function nearby but wish I stayed longer. Everything is kept incredibly neat, clean and cozy. Gavin was an excellent host and took the time to accommodate my difficult schedule with checking in. I felt very safe even though I was a solo traveller and I was surprised how close it was to the beach.

We got a really nice welcome to this lovely place within walking distance of beach and rock pool. The hosts were really nice and gave referrals to many good places. When they found out we were having a birthday party at the venue, they gave cake and champagne. Really good experience.

The cottage we stayed in was really cozy and had everything one need for a stay in Ballito (even a small kitchen). The ocean view from the little private deck was awesome. The pool is nice to have on a hot day although the ocean is just a stone throw away. We loved our stay in Ballito!

Never disappoints. Gavin always go the extra mile to make sure you are satisfied and comfortable. The guest house is always neat and clean and has everything you will need for your stay. The guesthouse is perfectly situation with a beautiful view of the ocean and close to many shops and attractions. We are always happy to book at Zuider Zee and never leave disappointed.

We stayed two nights in one of the chalets. The buildings and facilities are no longer new, but well maintained. Very friendly and accommodating is Gavin, the host. So he offered us during our dinner at an out-of-town restaurant to pick us up. This was because it had begun to rain. Great!

Beautiful and spotlessly clean. Wanted something quiet and private for my birthday and that's what I got.
The unit is well equipped for a comfortable stay. Clean swimming pool to make use of.
Gavin is a wonderful host and a really good person. Highly recommendable.

A little gem hidden away in Salt Rock with great hosts, lovely gardens and a great sea view. Tucked away from the hussle and bustle of the main road. Would definitely return

I had best stay,the place was super cool..surrounded by beautiful nature..pure air with mixture of sea breeze and beautiful plants..If you want a peaceful place to relax and rest after along working week or year Zuider Zee is the best..The place is near by everything(shops,malls,roads,beach ,Airport etc).The owner was super cool and so accommodating.
