Overall Ratings & Reviews Ocean Vista Boutique Guest House

We had a lovely couple of nights stay. It’s a great location for visiting Umhlanga, everyone was lovely and the accommodation was extremely comfortable with a lovely lounge at the top of the property, with a great view of the sea. Highly recommend and will stay again when next visiting

Staying in the Ocean View was a delightful surprise. The owner, Snezana, went above and beyond to ensure we were well cared for. From tea and juice, an abundance of information, to the beauty of the sight itself, we were delighted, to say the least. I can't remember feeling more welcomed anywhere. The room was extremely clean with a beautiful balcony with a view of the Indian Ocean. We enjoyed sitting out and listening to the water. The bathroom was very large and well-appointed. The breakfast was excellent and in a beautiful environment. I would highly recommend Ocean View Boutique Hotel to anyone staying in Durban at any time!!!

Outstanding staff.

Amazing views. Outstanding breakfast. Owner incredibly helpful with arrangements.

Snezana and her staff was so welcoming and friendly made you feel at home. Our stay was lovely but to short.

Absolutely fantastic! From staff to the room. And a perfect location in Umhlanga! If you have the chance, please stay here it's amazing!

Everything for this property is absolutely 10 out of 10, absolute excellence, and the host extremely helpful in every way you need.

Ocean Vista was the perfect spot to relax and regroup after a long week on safari. The relaxing space, the warm and welcoming staff was above and beyond. Such a beautiful outdoor space to unwind - the views are spectacular.

This is a hidden diamond and particularly if you are tired of big, famous hotel chains which keep promising but never delivers. Here is the opposite the staff is fantastic and so also the ocean view. Very clean and a super breakfast.

Me and my son stayed here on a tennis tour. Perfect view, breakfast is excellent. The whole guesthouse is very clean! Snezana is a wonderful hostess!

We were only here for two nights. We were exploring Durban which didn't permit much time at the guest house. We found the check in and check out smooth and efficient. Svenana is an exceptional hostess, she is warm and inviting. You feel right at home here The home is extremely clean and serene. We enjoyed the peace, the sound of the waves at night, the cozy bed and ease getting to restaurants and beach. You could spend the entire day reading on the sun deck. Lovely. Will return.

Great guest house with magnificent view on the ocean located in one of the best neighbourhoods in Durban. Fancy rooms exceptionally clean. Friendly staff, wonderful breakfast with view. Also with the monkeys visiting your terrace to say hello. I will definitely get back once in Durban.

Absolute perfect stay! Accommodations are excellent and only outshined by the owner & staff. Book here with assurance of the absolute best holiday!!! You will be overjoyed with you experience and the hospitality!!!

An amazing property with a fantastic view of the Indian Ocean. The only thing better than the property were the owner and staff. Very highly recommend!!

What an amazing place. We had everything we needed. Superb service from Dorothy, Precious and the other ladles. Shezana was very welcoming and helpful. A perfect stay. Thank you everyone at Ocean Vista.

Lovely views of the ocean from our balcony. Private and safe. Very personal guesthouse like service and attention by the host. Attention to detail is excellent; something I haven’t seen in a while. Highly recommended by experienced travelers.

A true gem in Umhlanga. Incredibly comfortable, breathtaking views and extraordinary service. Truly one of the best guesthouses in the area.

Probably the best most friendly, enthusiastic, outstanding customer service I’ve ever experienced. A beautiful venue, outstanding vistas and brilliant staff.

What a stunning place with a fabulous view. The breakfast was delicious and enjoying it in that location was special. The staff were very friendly and welcoming and nothing was too much trouble.

Ocean Vista is perfect for a business trip. It’s quiet. The owner and her staff are so friendly and pay attention to the small details that make a stay memorable. Seeing and hearing the ocean being a peacefulness to the place that make it a great spot for getting some work done or having a nice read of a book. The rooms are clean, and the breakfast spread is great. I’ll definitely be back!
