This was a 21st anniversary gift for a pastoring couple. The staff assisted us every step of the way in ensuring they had a memorable stay including a romantic setup.They even took videos and sent to me. I would highly recommend them to my friends, family and colleagues. I hope they have a conference facility as I would definitely use their services again.

It was a birthday gift to a family member and I mentioned the special occasion in my booking. My family were excited to receive a welcome basket of goodies for their birthday and a room that was sea facing. The Manager called them personally to invite them to a complimentary dinner but they were full from the delicious goody basket. They were then offered a complimentary breakfast and were very happy with the range of vegetarian foods that was provided to cater for them. The hotel more than exceeded our expectation in terms of making it special for the family member. Will definitely stay at Coastlands when we visit South Africa again.

The hotel was a very pleasant surprise. From the outside it doesn't have any appeal. But inside - Wow. Loved the openness of the restaurant and bar. I stayed in two different types of rooms (I had a return booking it was so good). Each room was very clean. Loved the shower. Staff were very helpful and friendly. For anyone visiting Durban on business or holiday, I highly recommend this hotel. As I said, I stayed for 3 nights and returned at the end of the week and stayed another night. Great location and great value for money.

Good morning, we are all set to leave at 9am thank you. Also please allow me to give a review that will also be shared on Bookings.com. Unfortunately, our stay did not meet expectations. The apartment had several cleanliness and maintenance issues. The door sign with the apartment number was hanging on a single screw, which looked unsafe. The white coffee cups had permanent stains, there was a significant amount of hair in the shower, and the sheets and duvet cover had visible stains. The curtains and pillows were also dirty and stained. With better attention to cleaning and maintenance, this could be a much better stay.

One of the best things about Kingsburgh is definitely the beach. The shoreline is beautiful — wide, sandy, and perfect for long morning walks or just sitting and enjoying the sound of the waves. The water is warm, and the vibe is calm, making it great for families, couples, or anyone who loves a good beach day. Sunrise here is something you don’t want to miss.

If you are looking for a serene, peaceful get away with uninterrupted views. This is the place for you. It boasts 4 bedrooms that are spacious and accomodating. The manager Diolan also makes a short appearance to welcome and check if there may be anything else that you would need. I would definitely book this place again. Unfortunately we only booked a 1 night stay. Although it rained we still had a braai. There is a pool however only the kids used it and enjoyed themselves.

Kingsburgh looks like it needs more security at the beach car guards are and hobos are sleeping on the pavement,loud music coming from cars at night in the car park until 1h00 in the morning.Water shortages so people are using the beach taps to full their containers by the truck loads to take home.

Durban is the hidden gem within South Africa when it comes to big city travelling. The weather is better/warmer than Cape Town or Joburg. eThekwini/Durban is the better choice for families and with uShaka Marine World has a huge advantage directly on the beach. You can spent 1-2 days there alone and no need to care about what to do with your kids. Food is great as well. From traditional Zulu meals to Indian cuisine. Durban is more budget-friendly than Cape Town or Joburg. Also if you want to explore more you can go to the Midlands/Mountains or Umhlanga nearby and Ballito if you need the luxury touch or change or scenary. Durban is also less touristy than Cape Town meaning you can still feel the real vibe, esp in Summer it is buzzling! Highly recommend it - also for water sports (snorkling, suring etc). My friends ended up skipping Cape Town for longer stay with us in Durban...and they came directly down from Dubai!!!

HI I never stayed there we contacted the person in charge because we weren't happy to stay there as nobody was there to greet us and the cleaning lady wasn't very friendly and nobody else was on the property. We have requested to be reimbursed and was told it would be done a week after the reservation was done.
