The accommodation impresses with spacious, well-equipped units, cleanliness, and a private beach with ocean views. However, guests were dissatisfied with the limited breakfast options and service quality.

This place is a franchise so I was expecting way more, we travelled here off peak season in the middle of the month. Our needs were never accommodated from the beginning due to poor management and ridiculous rules. We asked to be upgraded to a sea view room because the hotel was empty they lied and said it’s full. I asked to be assisted organizing a romantic picnic on the beach, they offered assistance but made me wait a ridiculous amount of time so I left it out they were reluctant to help me all services require a huge wait time, even simple things. The staff were polite however and tried to help they were governed by unaccommodating rules. The access to the beach was the best part. The breakfast was also good. Will never return!

We only stayed for one night as this was a short-enough drive from the airport and on the way up to our safari lodge, but we wish we had more time here! It's a stunning location on the beach, and has a great restaurant. Our room was HUGE and everything you need and more. Service was friendly and helpful. Great stay, thank you!

The resort is beautiful in terms of the location, room size and view of the ocean and scenic drive from Durban. Access to the beach is super easy and the beach itself is heavenly. The resort is easy to get around and the two swimming pools are great for the kids and adults. However, the resort has many problems that need to be resolved urgently as these problems adversely impact a holiday makers basic need for rest and relaxation. There was power outages at least 5 times a day which is why there is a gas braai on the verandah of every unit. The shower has no pressure and the hot water is intermittent so my son had cold showers which wasn't too bad due to the summer heat. The service at the restaurant is the worst I have experienced and I suppose that's because there is only 5 people to attend to bartending and taking care of restaurant patrons, not to mention the power outages making certain menu items unavailable. The cleaners do not clean the rooms, they dont even use any detergents when cleaning, its superficial wiping and tidying up. All in all, the establishment is pretty because of the natural surroundings however I wont be returning or recommending this establishment.

We decided to stay at the hotel on the spur of the moment, booked easily online and spent four really great days at the Anew Ocean Reed Hotel. Zinkwasi itself is pretty basic in terms of shops, so make sure you bring everything you need with you. Access to the beach is super simple, and the beach itself feels untouched, beautiful. The pool at the hotel is where we spent most of our time, served by excellent staff who were allayed great. We had a brilliant time at Ocean Reef and will be returning soon.

We had a wonderful stay, with truly breathtaking views. The rooms were spacious, clean, and full of light. Our unit (top floor) had views of the beach and sea... The kids loved the stay, and had so much fun. We regularly saw dolphins playing in the surf whilst drinking coffee from our balcony. There's a small kids play gym, which we adventured to at night... the beach is easy to access. There's a forest deck by the beach access point, which is great for morning yoga/stretches after a beach run. It's cocooned in a thick tree canopy. It really was special, and great for the whole family!

We stayed for one night as a stopover on our way to a further destination but we thought about changing our plans and remaining at the Ocean Reef Zinkwazi. The accommodation is apartment styled, ours having 2 large comfortable rooms and 2 large bathrooms. The rooms are equipped with everything you would need including a gas braai on the verandah. The furnishings are slightly outdated but this does not diminish from the overall stay. The town itself is great for runners and exploring but lacks restaurant options which makes the self catering option of Ocean Reef even more useful. The beach is a short forest boardwalk away. All in all we had a fantastic stay.
