Ocean View Hotel

Lack of maintenance. Worse than the previuoce time. Lunch was bad, steak was dry and food wasn't great. The only nice thing is the sea front.

We were there for two days for day visits. It’s a lovely place, laid back staff and good service. The food is not good, the burgers taste like they were made with boerewors meat, the prawns were so bad they tasted like they were frozen for months and the thawing process wasn’t good, they were doughy and had no taste. There is a limited amount of drink options. Basically you just need to lower your standards and enjoy the views and your company, otherwise it’s no 5 star hotel.

We were there for lunch on 3 days, the food was middle class level , but the communication was a disaster! On each day we never got what was ordered or always far too much in portions ( 8x fries for 4 guys ) or then once only half of the order....3 points from the local guide for the beautiful location and a nice service, which is the best

This facility is located on a very beautiful area, the staff is helpful & friendly. Unfortunately the lack of security takes away all the good from this place, we were burgled in the am's whilst sleeping & had our mobile phones stolen, no security in sight, the only emergency numbers provided are for local SAPS, hospitals & doctors. There's no numbers for the management team or onsight security. The security showed up after +-30min of the incident but I must really commend them for being proactive & they really tried helping locate our phones. The experience was very traumatic as you only imagine what could have happened should we have woken up with a bugler in our room, what if there was only females in the room? The facility is really let down by this & hope they have learnt & will improve from this incident. It will take us sometime to recover from this trauma & try visit this area again. We unfortunately lost all pictures we took at this beautiful location as the phones had not backed up yet.

Great experience but the tar road from Mqanduli to thid destination is the reason I do not wish to visit again.

Only stopped her for lunch and it was great. Well priced and friendly staff.

Had supper with my wife there. Absolutely amazing! Clean, spacious with friendly and helpful staff. The seafood was delicious and the chips crispy and well backed. The calamari, prawns and fish was baked to perfection! The sauce the spice and the flavor was perfect! We were offered complimentary coffee and tea. Real value for money!The best part is the stunning seaview!While eating you can hear and enjoy the seaview!The hotel is located right on the beach.Fizele and his team was absolutely amazing!The made everything possible to give us an unforgettable dinner experience.Would recommend this hotel restaurant anytime.Percy Martin

Excellent stay with friendly staff and fellow guest. The road from Mthata to Cofffee Bay is very bad with potholes. This Hotel is amongst the few there accessible without a 4x4.

Beautiful beach. Delicious hotel food. Lovely ocean view from our room. Very comfortable bed. Buildings could do with some updating.

For the price point, we were expecting a lot more. The pictures advertised are a bit deceiving. The rooms were barely passable. Food was bland and one dimensional....not all dietary requirements are taken into consideration when planning the menu. The food definitely needs to be given more attention. Staff are polite and helpful but are clearly untrained. Buffet meals were often served up to 45 minutes later than the stipulated time with management nowhere to be seen.It's a great location with lots of potential. However, it is poorly managed and in a state of disrepair. Either the price needs to drop considerably, or the standards need to reflect the pricing.
