Just returned from three weeks at this delightful hotel, sevice was superb, don't think we ever left our room without it being tidied and fresh towels put in. Food was excellent, but remember this is Africa and the pace of life is slower so expect to wait for courses - but all is fresh and of wonderful quality. Rooms are... More

To celebrate my youngest sisters 40th my older sister and I treated her to a day at the spa - booked 3 de-stress packages. On arrival instead of a friendly welcome we were informed that due to staff shortages only 2 of 3 treatments could be done. We explained that this did not suit us - and asked why we... More

Just returned from a weeks stay here, despite the weather we had a great stay. The location was great only an hour from the airport and 40 mins to Durban, there was lots to do locally, like Oribi gorge. The golf course on the estate is lovely and a very good test. Good on-site restaurant and not to far to... More

Selborne is not somewhere I would want to return. Things were going wrong from before arrival. Paying was an absolute disaster. Coming from overseas, we expected to be able to pay on credit card but this has only just been introduced so we were expected to bank transfer. Easier said than done. Despite the huge inconvenience of having to make... More

We stayed in one of the villas that allowed us more flexibility with our kiDs. Great activities when it is not ideal beach weather such as golf, cycling and tennis. There are several pools around the estate and the kids especially enjoyed the beach house pool - a few meters from the beach. Well worth it for busy families More

A beautiful hotel set peacefully by the golf course. Lovely food & wine. Room large & well furnished but dark as the lush vegetation actually touched the balcony. On the + side, this kept the room cool. Service was very good, nothing was too much trouble for the staff. Large bathroom with toiletries but the floor was VERY slippery, (no... More

We stayed here recently as it was an excellent location for my husband to go scuba diving at Aliwal Shoals. Although there are closer hotels to this dive location they do not seem to be of a very high standard. Also, as a mother with a young baby we wanted to be able to use a nice pool and go... More

We have been to South Africa many times but this was the first visit to this hotel. Easy to find, well under an hour from Durban, south on the N4. First impressions were good but not outstanding. However, as the days progressed (4 days, 3 nights there) it really grew on us. Service and friendliness of the staff simply coud... More
