Tired and dated property in poor condition.
Good location, parking, beach, over two levels, size of the property overall, including the main bedroom are all plusses. Good outdoor entertaining area. Friendly security staff. Could do with a washing machine though.
The overall condition of the property is pretty grim, particularly up stairs.
Including windows that do not close, (this is central Umhlanga so there is quite a lot of traffic noise very close by).
Unfortunately, the wardrobes smell and are in a state of disrepair and are unusable as a result.
The shower is effective but there's mould and overall this room is in very poor condition.
Unfortunately, the overall condition of the property is pretty run down, tired and in poor condition and things do need attention.
The thing that concerns me most is that the disrepair has been highlighted in reviews going back some years, with no action taken so the owners clearly have no intention of addressing these issues.
There are quite a lot of things that are actually broken.
Kitchen blind doesn't work and the window doesn't open.
Dining area window doesn't open.
Lounge back door locking mechanism is insecure. Couch is very grubby and you can feel the springs, so it's not comfortable.
Main bedroom light and fan are not working. Wardrobes smell and units are damaged and dated.
No door to main bathroom, bath leaks and window is broken
Second bathroom, window does not close.
Clearly the marketing photos are deceptive (by their absence) and were probably taken quite some time ago. There are no photos of the upstairs, bedrooms and bathrooms, (on booking.com). But this means we were unaware of the condition of the upstairs of the property.
This was a really big trip for us, so we are really disappointed with the property. We should have spent more time looking at the reviews before booking.

No bathroom door unbelievable
No door on the bathroom - your view from your bed is the toilet
Check in 4pm
No loo spray, no shower gel
2 ricoffy sachets for 4 of us- horrible coffee
Old tired linen, shocking bath mat
To charge your phone in the bedrooms you need to unplug the lamps and in the 2nd bedroom move the bed

The facility requires minor maintenance to eliminate teething issues but generally I enjoyed my stay
The place is safe and secure for vehicles and the residents. The self catering was perfect as well as the rooms.
No easy access to the beach (pedestrian gate). No undercover parking.
Only one hot plate of the stove was working.
