Accommodation - South Coast

[Fuma]

Never been to the South coast before and I'd love any recommendations. The place should be a walking distance to the beach, decent and affordable.
I plan on going there in few months, so I will have enough cash to stay for a week or so.

Why the south coast?

Pietermaritzburg. You will save loads because there is squat to do here

You could try Amanzimtoti

Not sure on accommodation but areas that are nice are. Shelly beach. St. Michaels. Trafalgar. San lamear. uvongo. Just don't go in peak season unless you enjoy joburg at the sea

If I still lived in the highveld I could go back to Leisure Bay, again and again and again. You won't regret it if you're looking for a place to relax at.

EDIT: http://www.wheretostay.co.za/peterpanplace/ we used to stay here... a bit grotty but really depends on the unit you got. People used to book for the following year when they left.

Try Pumula Beach Hotel. About an hour away from Durban. Awesome place. Very friendly staff and overall enviroment. On a blue flag beach, practically right on the beach. Would highly recommend this place.

Gateway. Fantasy Forest.

Is Gateway in Durban itself? A shopping centre? My child will expect me to carry her around for 2 hours in a shopping centre !

Take her to Shaka Marine World. You can all slide down the wet n wild slide thing among other things.

How about Victoria Street market ?

Which Indian restaurants would you recommend while we are in Durban?

 

[Polymathic]

You could try Amanzimtoti

Pretty dangerous there but anyway that's Durban South not South Coast

gateway has everything.


Restaurants to dine. Enough to keep kids happy as well.


Victoria Street market ain't what it used to be.... sadly.
