A recently fully renovated property, Bare Feet Retreat B&B combines modern comfort with sustainable living. Almost entirely off-grid, the property is powered by solar energy and equipped with extra water storage for a responsible, eco-conscious stay — without compromising on comfort. Built on a gentle slope, the property offers stunning elevated views. Please note: access to the house requires climbing 16 steps, and the swimming pool area is reached by an additional 8 steps. This layout helps create panoramic views of the ocean and gardens, but may not be suitable for guests with mobility challenges. Our three modern guest rooms each feature a private entrance, eco-friendly finishes, and outdoor seating in a courtyard. Guests can enjoy ocean views from the breakfast areae and sparkling swimming pool surrounded by lush tropical gardens. Located in a quiet neighborhood, just a 5-minute walk (or 3-minute drive) from the beach, Bare Feet B&B offers a tranquil escape with easy access to local restaurants and outdoor activities such as surfing, diving, hiking, biking, and golf. Business travelers will also find a serene environment perfect for focus and rest. While there are no self-catering options, guests can make use of our covered outdoor breakfast area equipped with a microwave, cutlery, and crockery for their own brought food. Breakfast can be arranged upon request — please let us know before arrival. Private parking: 1 standard vehicle per room. Extra cars, campervans, or trucks? Please notify us in advance." Please note: Bare Feet B&B is a quiet sanctuary, not a party venue. Guests come here to unwind, connect with nature, and enjoy the peace of a true coastal getaway.
After running a highly successful Big Five Lodge in the Greater Kruger Park since 2009, we made the decision to sell in 2024. While the experience was unforgettable, we found ourselves longing for the ocean. After two years of searching for the perfect "holiday house," we discovered this grand old lady. It was far too special to remain just a getaway, so we decided to relocate, renovate, and transform her into a welcoming B&B. We are known for our personal touch, attention to detail, and going the extra mile to make guests feel at home. Whether you’re here to relax or explore, we offer a unique, personalized stay. As experienced divers, we’d be thrilled to join you on a dive or share expert tips on running, hiking, and mountain biking trails. Passionate about nature and deeply committed to our planet, we take small, meaningful actions—like regular clean-ups—to make a positive difference in the world. Our hope is that every guest leaves feeling refreshed, inspired, and connected to the beauty around us.
Bare Feet Retreat B&B is ideally located just off the N2 at the Dududu turnoff, approximately 60 km south of Durban. Nestled in the peaceful, family-friendly neighborhood of Freeland Park, the area is renowned for its leafy trees and stunning views of the Indian Ocean. This close-knit community takes pride in looking out for one another, keeping the neighborhood safe and clean. To enhance security, we have installed 35 cameras connected to a control room, along with 24/7 security in the area. We’ve also added our own unique street signs to make finding us even easier. From our B&B, you can easily walk or drive to Scottburgh Main Beach, famous for its lush green lawn. For a quieter retreat, visit Clansthal Beach or explore the rock pools at Rocky Bay. Nature lovers will appreciate a scenic one-hour drive south to Oribi Gorge and Eland Game Reserve, ideal for outdoor adventures. If you’re in the mood for a taste of city life, take the N2 north to Durban, visit uShaka Marine World, or stroll through the Durban Botanical Gardens. For those seeking active pursuits, the area offers golf courses, mountain biking and hiking trails, deep-sea fishing, surfing, and diving—ensuring there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
