Top 10 Bluff Hotels

Fabulous stay, strongly recommended. Except if you want to be on the beachfront or in the bustle of Umhlanga Rocks. Situated on the ridge overlooking the sea, btw Umhlanga and Durban North, 5-10 min drive to the beach, 10 min to Umhlanga Rocks. Staff are fabulous and kept us well fed and suppmied with generous cocktails in the pool. We were the only guests both evenings in the pool area. Saw vervet monkeys from the balcony. Breakfast was also generous and delicious. Rooms are quiet, block out the light, and beds comfy.

Our stay at Southern Sun Maharani overlooking Durban North Beach was a delightful escape. The room's design allowed us to enjoy breathtaking coastal views, seamlessly integrating with the stunning backdrop. The well-appointed interiors created a cozy retreat, enhancing our overall experience. The convenience of being close to Durban North Beach allowed for spontaneous beachside strolls. The hotel's commitment to exceptional service from friendly and attentive staff contributed to the warm and welcoming atmosphere. The soothing sounds of the ocean and play of sunlight on the waves became captivating aspects of our stay. Southern Sun Maharani's location and service ensured a memorable coastal retreat. The overall experience left us eager to return to this exceptional beachside haven.

This was my only sisters 70th birthday year and in the absence of us travelling overseas we booked a few local activities to make up for that. One of the highlights was an overnight package at SUNCOAST towers Hotel and her favourite overseas band SANAM tickets. Little did we know that this is what we would get. Currently they are advertising their sunscapes at R1045 per night so we were hopeful of a good room. She's 70 I'm 63 we had to walk a good 30 rooms down the passages right to the end as per diagram attached. The fourth floor and the view was the dumpster and back end of the hotel. The room dismally tiny with a sink and see through toilet and shower all in one square....ayyy hostel style or workers quarter style ..never again!!!!!! Sadly management didn't allow an upgrade they cited having no rooms available. I felt bad for only sister who comes a small mining town called Dannhauser in northern natal. I did not expect this kind of hotel accomodation Tsogo Sun. These rooms should be reserved for your gamblers who need a place to crash for a few hours....

In Durban, I borrowed a conversion plug and went three times. Initially said no, the second trip still said no, but another waiter said yes, it really did. The third trip is to take a deposit to borrow the plug. The hallways on the first floor are massaged and smell very strong
