    I thoroughly enjoyed this property - incredibly beautiful and comfortable hotel.

    It was adjacent to beach and U shaka marine, the center of Ushaka Marine World and Sun Coast Casino, and the seaside, favourable and magnificent location overall. There was California Dreaming next to the hotel. I was offered a room with perfect views of the sea.

    The hotel's location along the beachfront is simply fantastic. It provides easy access to a variety of restaurants and stunning views of the ocean. This alone makes it a great value for money option.

    Despite the overall positive experience, there were a few minor issues. However, these didn't overshadow the great stay.
