Choose Wisely

We are not a luxury hotel and we have never tried to be. We are a simple, affordable, peaceful place to sleep, and some of the cheapest rooms in Mtubatuba, Hlabisa and KwaMsane. Your car in the yard, hot water in the morning. Every room and every bathroom, photographed as it is. Look before you book.

Every room in this house, by its number. Prices are per night and the photographs are of the actual room.

Project crews. Wake up.

You get the call when the accommodation is wrong.
The bakkie and everything on it has to be inside a gate.
Your office will not pay without a reference on the invoice.

Weeknights are when we have the room. Send the headcount and the dates and we hold the block, one house or two, whatever fits. Own bathroom in every room, every yard takes the vehicles, and the pro-forma comes with a reference your office can file.

Straight answers.

What you get

A private bathroom: Every room has its own, with hot water.
Your car inside the gate: Parking in the yard at every house.
A bed made up properly: Fresh linen and towels, every stay.
Air conditioning and a smart TV: In every room bar a very few, with a fridge you can stand a week of food in.
A kettle and something to eat off: Almost every room has a kettle, a microwave, plates, cups and cutlery.
A gym and a hall at Hlabisa: Both yours to use while you are staying.
A person at reception: Someone checks you in, whatever time you get there. Any hour, every day.
An hour, a night, or a month: Short stays and long stays are both normal here. Say which you want.

What you do not

Breakfast is not included: It costs extra, it has to be ordered the day before, and it is Mtubatuba and Hlabisa only.
The TV is OpenView, not DStv: The channel list is shorter. It is a smart TV, so sign into your own Netflix or YouTube instead.
There is no company Netflix: The account on the TV has to be yours.
A few rooms are missing one or two things: Ask when you book and you get told which, rather than finding out at the door.
No room service and no restaurant: There is a KFC and a Spar in town, and a kitchen in most rooms if you would rather cook.
No pool at Hlabisa or KwaMsane: The pools are at Mtubatuba and Green Tree.

Mtubatuba Experiences

Game reserve
Hluhluwe-iMfolozi Park
The oldest proclaimed reserve in Africa, and the reason there is still a white rhino anywhere. Memorial Gate is on the Hlabisa road, so from that house you are at the gate for the morning drive without leaving at four.

World Heritage site
iSimangaliso Wetland Park
Runs from the estuary at St Lucia all the way up the coast to Kosi Bay. The turnoff is at Mtubatuba, which is where two of our houses are.

Town and estuary
St Lucia Estuary
Hippo in the channel and a main street of boat operators. The closest thing to a tourist town out here, and close enough from Mtubatuba to go for the afternoon and sleep back at ours.

Beach
St Lucia Beach
Straight through the town and over the dune. Wide, usually empty, and the reason most people who stop at Mtubatuba are stopping at all.

Shops
Mtubatuba Mall
Groceries, a pharmacy, a bank and somewhere to eat, in the middle of town. Two of our houses are minutes from the door.

Hlabisa Shopping Centre
The Spar opens at eight and it is the one stop in town. Our Hlabisa house is a minute away, and so is the hospital.

Alkantstrand Beach
Richards Bay’s main beach, with the lifeguards and the parking and the walk along the harbour wall. A day trip from any of our houses.

The big one in Richards Bay. Everything you cannot buy in Mtubatuba is in here, and it is an easy run down the N2 and back in a day.

Booking and paying.

You have not stayed here before and you are about to send money to people you have never met. Here is every part of that, in the order it happens.

You pay half

Half the price holds the room. Card, EFT, or cash when you get here. The rest on arrival.

Or you pay nothing yet

Ask us to hold it and the room is yours for 48 hours. No card, no deposit. After that it goes back on sale.

In from 14:00, out by 10:00

Arriving late is fine. Tell us roughly when and somebody will be at reception.

Plans change

Cancel a day or more ahead and the deposit is yours as credit for six months, or back in your account less 10%.

Our banking details never change by message. If a new account number reaches you claiming to be us, it is not us. Phone +27 63 644 4444, speak to a person, and confirm the account before you send anything.
