Although the hotel sits within easy reach of Durban’s cultural landmarks and is just over 16 kilometres from the international airport, it maintains a strong sense of privacy. Palm‑lined pathways, ocean breezes and uninterrupted sea views create a calm, resort‑like atmosphere. The 86 rooms and suites each have their own character, with a choice between peaceful garden outlooks or panoramic sea views. Classic sea‑facing rooms come with private balconies overlooking the lighthouse, while garden‑facing rooms offer generous space and views across manicured greenery. Guests looking for additional comfort can opt for larger sea‑facing suites or the exclusive garden villas.
Dining is central to the experience here. The Ocean Terrace serves everything from full English breakfasts to Indian specialities and wood‑fired pizzas, all accompanied by views of the ocean. The Palm Court is known for its afternoon tea and relaxed buffet breakfasts, while The Grill Room presents classic seafood and meat dishes in a refined setting. Three distinctive bars – including the Lighthouse Bar – offer further spots to enjoy cocktails, champagne or freshly shucked oysters. The hotel’s facilities include an award‑winning spa, a well‑equipped fitness centre, a private cinema and a dedicated children’s club, ensuring a comfortable and varied stay for guests of all ages.
