    It's ok though the mall closes too early even on holidays.

    It's ok though the mall closes too early even on holidays. Richards Bay is clean but when you at the open parking's of the Boardway by Bluff meat entrance, it's super untidy it's like you have moved to a different place all together. It's a little bit scarry to park and leave your car there.

    My favorite place was being at the bon hotel and Zula.

    My favorite place was being at the bon hotel and Zula. I loved the hotel food and neighborhood shisanyama. Not to forget the ice-cream nearby the hotel it was very nice. My family and I enjoyed the boat cruise and being, and we also drove to St Lucia for trip to hluhluwe to see the big five. It is not very far though it's 1 hour drive from Richard's Bay.

    Not much to complain about.

    Not much to complain about. The town is just as beautiful, especially the trees surrounding the whole town, it makes it very beautiful. The beaches are just beautiful for those of us from inland. Unfortunately, the Airport remains the same, just pathetic.

    Beautiful beach potential, caring local community. Good roads, LOTS of speed control. Unfortunately the victim of neglectful municipality, safety concerns and limited paying traffic causing a decay of local businesses and infrastructure.

    The owner, Cheryl, is such a lovely person, always kept us inform before hand on new developments around the area. The place is a home away from home, the place is neat inside-out, spacious and a lovely garden outside, my little one really enjoyed running around the yard. There was nothing to worry about when it comes to safety for yourself, family, and the car. Wouldn't mind coming back to this place whenever I visit Richards Bay. Thank you so much Cheryl stay blessed and grow bigger in this industry.

    The chalet was immaculate - clean and tidy. Very spacious for our family. The location perfect - beautiful surrounded by nature. Having the restaurant and bar close on premises was an absolute plus. The pool and the option to go for a stroll on the beach. An amazing stay - highly recommend!!
