All was great. They just need to check on their wifi and TV channels. I missed watching the news. Easy to sort and hope they do.

Friendly and welcoming staff - super helpful and they allowed us to leave our suitcases overnight whilst we went away for a separate tour. Good breakfasts - we requested packed breakfasts for our early starts and they were fab. Room very spacious and the baths and showers were amazing Lovely location, beach access and a quick uber ride to Umhlanga

Nessun addetto alla sicurezza… nessun servizio di ristorazione… colazione insufficiente… troppi animali domestici liberi di girare ovunque e per chi è allergico agli animali è assolutamente impossibile la permanenza presso questa struttura

We loved our few days at Cowrie Cove. Our room was so nicely appointed, and we had a mini-fridge and coffee/tea set/up as well. Easy beach access for nice strolls by the water. Breakfast was wonderful, and there were hot drink options/cookie all day in the kitchen. Short Uber ride to Umhlanga Rock restaurant area. Would definitely return!

This B&B sports 12 good sized to frankly large rooms, in Umhlanga Rocks, around 40 yards from the beach (our bathroom, in #3, was humongous, and beautiful). Hosts are so nice, and tolerated many COVID associated rebooking from us, and others. Grounds have a nice pool, and many cozy nooks for reading. Not many games in house, so bring your own entertainment. Breakfasts are great. Cowrie Cove is over a mile from Umhlanga, and thus over a mile from any eating or shopping establishment. Uber rides are only around 100 Rand round trip—more like 400 R for a round trip for Durban. The area has been hit hard by rains, and the beach has a lot of trash on it. Beach is pretty narrow and steep, too, and it’s hard to walk long distances on it—but that is not this establishments problem.

It was an exceptional place to be, the host was very warm and the house and the staff absolutely beautiful. Had the Deluxe Sweet and it’s worth the value. Will be bringing the fam down soon and I’m sure they will fall in love like we did.

My partner and I had a fantastic time at this 5 star guesthouse. The place is beautiful, the owner and staff were very welcoming. The trail to the beach was thoughtfully made making the entire experience magical. Would definitely recommend

Great service and friendly staff. The environment is so great you even forget you are not at home. Caroline is so helpful and goes all out to make sure guests are comfortable. I'll recommend you book your next accommodation with them. You'll love it
