The Beach house on Tiffany bay - newly revamped.
The house was lovely, and Heather was a great host. We felt very welcome and comfortable. The complimentary wine was great! Thank you!

The Ultimate Beach Front Home - 25 Sovereign Sands
A beautiful, spacious beach home with gorgeous views and an unspoilt beach. Right on the beach & with easy access to the beach. Secure complex. We’ll definitely be back!

The Villas No.4 (Direct Beach Access)
The house has amazing ocean views and the sound of the waves was a beautiful background to our stay. A few steps from the beach, we had a wonderful time.

NOMAX BEACH HOUSE. Ballito/Chakas Rock-beachfront
What can I say except WOW! Started off the day watching the sun rise over the ocean while enjoys a wonderful cup of tea on the two chairs dedicated to Nono and Maxime. We could then walk down to Thompson Bay beach directly from the garden. When a day in the waves was over, a short walk up the steps to the outdoor shower by the pool for a quick dip then a quick braai on the amazing stainless steel braai by the pool. To end it all, going to sleep with the doors open listening to the waves crashing all night! And in the morning, Elizabeth was there to sort out our messy dishes and Russel washed off all the kids beach toys…. I can’t recommend the place enough and hope to be back next year. Thank you Denise and team, truly amazing trip xx

Beautiful beach cottage in Salt Rock
Douglas our host is fabulous, always a message away alongside Thulani our caretaker who lives on site while maintaining privacy for us guests. The facilities are more than perfect for us three adults and we slept like babies. Book the house and you will be blown away. Thank you for having us, we will come back again.

Incredible Beach House Sanctuary near Ballito!
Thank you Chad for a great stay ! The location of your home is perfect and the views from the house overlooking the sea and lagoon are spectacular. It was very peaceful sitting on the deck watching the sunsets. The kitchen was well equipped but lacking a dishwasher. Overall a great experience !

WAZOS BEACH COTTAGE
Warren is a super cool host. Our stay was short and I wish I could stay on. The beach is just across the road. The cabin gives you that I’m on holiday feeling. Would go there again. Thanks again Warren for having us

Beach access holiday home/large pool sea views
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and are greatful to Peta for accommodating us. This was our second stay and it was just as we remembered it - calm, spacious and perfect for our large family. Lungile was friendly and welcoming and we felt at home for the duration of our stay. Thank you!

Beachfront Apartment in Secure Estate with Seaview
We had a really great stay and will definitely be back. The view was amazing and so close to the beach. Highly recommend.

Maison Martinique, seaside condo
Jean was a fantastic host—friendly and easy to communicate with and definitely went the extra mile for us. The unit was spotless, really comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The views were absolutely stunning, and the space was thoughtfully set up with nice little touches throughout. We enjoyed the small trail in the complex and loved being able to walk to Thompson’s Bay Beach. We’d definitely love to come back!

Plover's Nest s/c luxury on the Dolphin Coast
Lovely tidy apartment a few minutes walk from the beach. Fairly old building but very safe a secure. Everything as described, no issues at all - many thanks for a wonderful weekend

Santorini Luxe
We loved our stay at Hayden’s place, everything was perfect. Definitely look forward to coming back again.

Lagoon Drive Upmarket Beachfront Nest
Paola's nest was incredible! We did a last minute booking and she instantly confirmed. When we got there we felt like we didn't want to leave as it was only for a night. The space was clean, quiet, with a beautiful view and close to the restaurants, beach walks and nature reserve. Loved the bathtub!

504 Ballito Manor View-Luxury home on Main Beach
One of our best ever rentals. Can’t wait to go again!

6 Sleeper Salt Rock Beachfront Apartment
Stacey's place is airy and quite pleasant, with the wide-open view of the ocean! The kitchen was also particularly well equipped, both in terms of hard equipment and usable items (paper towels, coffee and washing soap). The braai stand was also special - allowed us to enjoy a good braai facing the ocean!

Stay on the beach - 180° Unobstructed Sea View
We had an absolutely fantastic stay at this beachfront property! The location is unbeatable — right on the beach with breathtaking views of the ocean from sunrise to sunset. Waking up to the sound of waves and enjoying our morning coffee on the balcony with that incredible view was pure bliss. The home was spotless and equipped with everything we needed and more — from a fully stocked kitchen and comfortable beds. Every detail was thoughtfully considered, making our stay not just easy but genuinely relaxing. Communication with the host was smooth and friendly, and check-in was a breeze. You can tell they truly care about the guest experience. We’ve stayed at quite a few Airbnb properties, and this one really stands out. We’re already looking forward to our next visit! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful, well-appointed escape right on the water.

Villa Royale 1011
The place was absolutely magnificent and nothing short of amazing. It looks exactly like the pictures. Very aesthetically pleasing. The views from the balcony were spectacular! Definitely home away from home. Cathy is also a very friendly and responsive host.

Sheffield Beach Sunrise Villa with Dolphin views
We had a fantastic stay at this beachfront property! The home is comfortable and well-equipped, making it perfect for a relaxing getaway. The private swimming pool is a real treat when you don't feel like dealing with sand, and the fire pit with a sea view is ideal for entertaining in the evenings. There's also a shaded stoep to escape the wind, giving you great options for enjoying the outdoors while staying comfortable. Just be aware that the walk down to the beach is steep, but the stunning views make it worth it. Highly recommended!

**Stunning Beach House on Salt Rock beach**
This home has been one of our best stays in the Dolphin coast. The home is extremely spacious, catering for large families (we had 13) with breath taking ocean views, that flow into the house. Enough bedrooms and bathrooms to cater for privacy, fantastic open plan communal areas. A relaxing environment with all amenities you need to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. Direct beach access made it super convenient for kids and elders getting to the ocean for swims Our family could not stop raving about what an amazing place it was. Recommend!

Seaside Serenity: Your ultimate beachfront escape!
Perfect location right on the beach in Ballito. Jessie's place had everything you need for a peaceful, relaxing stay at the beach. We even saw a pod of dolphins playing in the waves on the first day. Only wish we could've stayed longer.

Premium house with glorious sea views
Lindy’s home was an incredible haven for our weekend away: it felt like home from the start. Immaculately clean, and with beautiful sea and forest views - it’s a tranquil refuge that we’ll certainly return to. Cannot recommend enough and we will certainly be back.

Chaka's Rock duplex with direct beach access
Overall, a wonderful stay!! A gorgeous oasis in Ballito, near the beach. Ample space for a family, I wish we had more time. Leanne ensured that clear instructions were provided on how to enter the property and checked on our arrival. On arrival, she had packed a lovely gift pack of rusks, chocolate and cappuccino near the kitchen. The accommodation is very neat and clean and is fully kitted with everything you would need. We were there for 2 days. The beach is on your doorstep and is not crowded. Leanne allowed for a late check-out, which we greatly appreciated as our flight was in the evening. We consider this our place away from home when in Durban.

Penlee Cottage - an original beach home
Fantastic relaxed beach house , perfect location to shops and restaurants, house had a lovely relaxed and homely feel , would definitely recommend

42 Thira - Beautiful Beach apartment
Great weather, nice and sunny in the Dolphin coast. Quick and easy access to the beach. Lovely unit, it was clean and the essentials were provided. Quite a few steps going up and down if you don’t want to take the long way around and up the unit. The host was very responsive when in need. We had a good time. No complaints.
