Mackaya Bella Guest House is truly one of the top accommodations in Durban. Conveniently located in a quiet and safe neighborhood, it is situated next to Durban Girls' High School and just a short distance from UKZN Howard College. For an academic like myself, the guest house provided a perfect balance of comfort and productivity, creating an environment that is both relaxing and conducive to work. The staff is exceptionally friendly and delivers outstanding service, with breakfast being a particular highlight. They go above and beyond to accommodate any special requests, especially for extended stays. The owners are a warm and respectful couple who ensure that all guests feel well taken care of. Mackaya Bella Guest House is more than just a place to stay; it’s a welcoming retreat that feels like a home away from home.

We had a very nice time in Durban-largely thanks to Nicki and her husband. We’re from the US but living in Cape Town for 3 months for work and took a weekend getaway to Durban. The guesthouse was a lovely base for the weekend - comfortable and roomy, with excellent breakfasts! In particular, however, the advice from Nicki on places to eat, places to visit, and getting around safely was invaluable. So much online about Durban is out of date, having a knowledgeable, trusted advisor like Nicki is a necessity. Plus, she and her husband are absolutely lovely people!

What a wonderful stay I had at Mackaya Bella. Nicki and Mike are most gracious hosts who have created a wonderful little oasis. It really felt like a home away from home and since it was a working holiday for me, it was lovely to come back to such a warm and welcoming space. Will definitely be back, it's now a firm favourite spot. Special mention to the wonderful Sli and her delicous daily breakfasts.
