This family hotel is run by a truly exceptional team. Family and friends from across the country gathered here with us for a very special memorial celebration in honour of our beloved mother. When our original plans had to be significantly changed, the hotel exceeded all expectations and accommodated us with warmth and care. A heartfelt thank you to Paul, Kevin, Sam, and the entire front of house team for going above and beyond to make this occasion so meaningful. We’re already looking forward to returning in the future.

The location is beautiful and the beach was amazing but the unit we stayed in was very disappointing and check out was not told to us and only 10 minutes before check out the lady came knocking at the door saying we need to leave in 10 minutes but I asked her the place is not neat so she said the dishes need to be washed and there was a dishwasher there but it was not working and the place needs to be cleaned but now I checked on my invoice of the place I payed 550 for cleaning fee which I thought was a damaged deposit. I don't think no one should visit this unit until they have new management and sort the bathroom out, fix the kitchen cupboards, sort the outside braai place, fix the dishes washer and clean the cupboard in the rooms.

Amanzimtoti is a gem on the KwaZulu-Natal coast—perfect for anyone looking to unwind while still having access to plenty of things to do. The beaches are absolutely beautiful: clean, family-friendly, and great for swimming or just relaxing. Watching the sunrise over the ocean is a must! There’s a good mix of restaurants, local shops, and malls nearby, making it easy to find what you need without traveling far. The area feels safe and has a welcoming, laid-back atmosphere. It’s also a convenient base for exploring Durban and surrounding areas, while still enjoying a quieter, more relaxed setting. Whether you're traveling as a couple, with family, or solo, Amanzimtoti has something to offer. Highly recommended for anyone wanting a peaceful seaside break with a local touch.

The house is clean and welcoming, everything work properly electric wise. Their bedrooms in good condition, the couch, kitchen Woow 👍. Choose Blue hive guesthouse if you want to relax enjoy your holiday. Places like Wild coast sun if you have children for play park, Casino for restaurant of your choice and the games etc. And it's 10 min drive.

Excellent location so much to do.

Excellent location so much to do. The views were breath taking. People are friendly and welcoming. Excellent facilities. Security was excellent. No medical facilities near by almost stepped on a puff adder while walking on a path. More information on emergencies for snake bites required. Will definitely visit soon. Overall an excellent and magical destination.

We enjoyed exploring the town and the beach.

We enjoyed exploring the town and the beach. The cottage was just right for us but the narrow stairs were challenging. We used the upstairs 'verandah ' to make the most of the Seaview and the braai. Favorite place was the restaurant in the caravan park; ideal for breakfast and watching the whales. The take away fish and chips from the Corner Fish and Chips was the best value for money. Next time I will avoid staircases.

It was my first time in Shelly Beach. My fiancé has been there many times. That's why he suggested it. As we were there for his vacation from work. I would highly recommend the area as it is really beautiful there. Most of the people are friendly and we made new friends so easily.

We had lunch at the pig and plough, nice menu - slow service, however, we still enjoyed the food and the venue. The Thokozi restaurant and Deli, good food and a nice variety. Sandra se Winkel was an experience - well worth going to when you are in the area.

Kokstad has become a little run down since I was there in the early 1990''s but there seems to be a concerted effort in reviving the local industry. I was a little sceptical in finding car parking on the main streets but the new mall areas had lots of parking avaliable that seemed safer. There were also car guards avalaible - many of whom begged for food in addtion to a monetary tip. The surrounding area of Kokstad is still as beautful and scenic as I remember and typical of a South African mountain town.
