Upon arrival through a well kept pool area and braai facilities, you are welcomed with a friendly smile to check you in to what i describe is the most beautifully decorated; exquisite and comfortable room with a breathtaking view of the Umhlanga ocean. A continental breakfast is all ready in your room on a daily basis which leaves you more than satisfied. And the coffee in the room is proper coffee ;)

Hillside Guesthouse was superb, spacious and super clean. The cold breakfast was for me the healthiest and catered for my dietary requirements. I enjoyed my stay and will recommend to friends and colleagues.

Wonderful location, spacious room and bathroom, loved the clever use of space for the kitchenette and selection for breakfast and snacking! Hosts are very accommodation and an all over very enjoyable stay. As a solo female traveller, was wonderful to be able to walk to the beach and shops with ease!
