Provider-sourced guest reviews.
The unit is nice, has everything you might need, size of the appartment is also good, bed is comfy, location is top, very very clean, housekeeping also very good and kind, view is ok
The neighbors are extremely loud and noisy in the middle of the night or early mornings, but if you complain to the reception/security (call using display next to the entry door) all is fixed in a short while
Location. Walking distance to the beach
It was clean and had everything I needed .
The view of the construction wasn’t pleasing. There was hair in the shower .
Excellent neat and tidy
Nothing to complain abt
Location was excellent, and the apartment was comfortable and clean.
One of the amenities listed was pool access. However we were told by the reception staff, that the pool is only for hotel guests, and not for those staying in the apartments.
The place was really clean and was excellent
Every was perfect

I loved the location and how everything was a walk away. Felt very safe also and just overall had a really good time.
The Wi fi was quite slow and I was not a fan of the pillows, they felt quite flat and were not the most comfortable
Conveniently located minutes away from Oceans Mall and across the street from the beach.
The location is perfect and the apartment is just fantastic. I love it so much. It was my second stay :)

Excellent apartment, with great views. Clean, spacious, and very modern.
There was a problem with condensation occurring on the floors throughout the apartment during our stay. We were asked by the cleaner to leave the air conditioner on at 17 degrees to prevent this from happening. As a result of this both my hubby and I developed a cold, which made our holiday very uncomfortable for a few days. We were not happy about this.
Modern and luxurious apartment
Lounge and balcony view
Bed not comfortable
It’s a nice place
Everything is perfect
The location and the apartments layout
Loadshedding Share the loadshedding schedule with your guest for the duration of the stay due to the lack of backup power. Make provision for guests to put their bags in storage when they arrive earlier than 14h00
Location and value for money
No cleaning service for Sunday, not enough towels
Location and ambiance
Microwave was broken and I was not informed till I wanted to use it. That was then I realized Microwave is not working.
The property was neat
There was no notice of when there’s load shedding, we had to have a cold shower, the owner was blunt with his messages to us. There was no clear instructions that towels are not provided and will only be washed after 5 days! it’s shocking that towels must be used for 5 days before it is washed and replaced.
This might be one of the best accommodations in Umhlanga. My best friend and I spent 3 nights at this apartment and we were blown away with how beautiful the apartment is. It was tastefully decorated and had all the necessary crockery and appliances to cook up a storm. I enjoyed cooking and having breakfast on the balcony, I loved the luxurious, comfortable bed and appreciated the house keeping services-who was exceptional. The host was responsive, pleasant and provided detailed instructions for arrival and check-in. I hope to be back soon!
The Oceans Apartment front desk staff were not professional and warned my friend that I that we could not swim using bikinis and that they will watch us on the cctv. They advised that they were instructed on this from their Manager. We felt awful after this experience, spoke to the host and Raddison staff who were shocked that we were informed this. Raddison managers informed me that there is no such rule. We were then later apologised to, but it just ruined my day and we didn’t swim on that day. There was no accountability, outcome or sincerity from the Oceans Apartment Staff.
I loved everything about the apartment. The location was the best!
During Loadshedding there were no rechargeable lights provided. The apartment was dark during loadshedding. (especially the bathroom where there were no windows.)
great location. World class apartment
nothing.
Excellent location Very clean Wifi is excellent Easy parking access View from balcony is good Highly recommend
Shower needs bigger shelf space, has a tiny soap dish Floors are very slippery Need additional plug points in the lounge Building has teething problems, eg lift stopped working NB: no towel change for 5 night stay....huge huge issue
Hermann is always available. Friendly and efficient. The accommodation was as advertised, neat, comfortable and well located. I would recommend this unit.
Brand new unit. The shower head needed to be tightened, but it was sorted out immediately after being reported.
