The pool was closed the first two days we were there. But the views were great. The oscillating AC unit blowing on the bed was not ideal. Caused issues with breathing in the night.

The staff were amazing and incredibly friendly — from the porter to the front desk, right through to the beautiful breakfast service. The waiters were attentive, and the ever-smiling chefs truly made the experience special. I was, however, a bit concerned about the cleanliness of the room, particularly the bathroom. The shower glass and walls need more attention. In areas with aluminum joints, I would suggest using a toothbrush to remove the black buildup. The rails could also be wiped down properly to restore that desired shine. Nothing makes a hotel room feel more comfortable than a spotless bathroom.”

I guess the best thing of this hotel is its convenient location. Being a beachfront hotel has its privileges. I’ve stayed in much nicer hotels for half the price. Cheaper to stay somewhere else with a better room and uber to the beach. I had to have maintenance come and fix the shower and sink.

Hotel is waterfront . Very busy with families during the holidays.

1. All guests had to share an iron. We had to go downstairs in the lobby to get one. No iron in the room. 2. Complimentary water bottle was not replaced after room was cleaned 3. Hotel decided to clean one of the elevator during very busy morning usage. So that left only one elevator in service 4. At one point, no porter was available to fetch anything in the room

Good friendly staff

The place was clean, i love white bedding and it was changed every morning, very comfortable, variety of meals in the morning and room service too was served well orders taken promptly and delivered to the room. I was impressed with the overall service and will make it my home whenever I visit Durban..Thank you Blue Waters Hotel

Had to book this as an emergency change when the initial hotel I booked (Avondale) was not available/closed. Turned out to be a great option. Amazing service and right by the beach, making it easy to get to the Comrades expo and start line. Definitely worth it.

The staff was extremely nice.the hotel breakfast was delicious and the bar was great. I had a beautiful view of the ocean from my balcony and the room was comfortable i didnt get to the roof top pool but I heard it was awesome. The little pizza places at the bar was really good . I really enjoyed my stay

Top tier 💃💃 been coming for third time now in a row. Excellent food, service and hospitality.

Really value for money. Everything works. Staff was great. Breakfast very good. Easy to get an Uber. Super localization

Negatives.. Tired hotel, typical of the Durban area unfortunately. Main pool on the 10th floor was under maintenance so not open. The main reason we booked this hotel! Constant noise of water flowing through pipes 24 hrs a day. Couldn’t sleep for the two days we stayed Ground floor bar played the same music all day, very loudly! No tab for drinks meant having to walk around the other side of bar to pay by card for every drink bought. Positives… Staff were very good. Couldn’t do enough to help. The breakfast was very reasonable, considering the amount of guests, although no coffee machine meant waiting ages for hot drinks after ordering. Evening buffet meal was of a good standard.

my first impression on check in.shirtless, no shoes in shorts client at reception. getting into elevator to go to room another customer dripping wet from pool .thats a management problem.first impressions are lasting .sorry to say this but overall experience was just way below expectations. room aircon not working properly.half black out curtain ,other half missing .ñoise in hallway.thats all managment issues ........ id give the blue waters a 2 /10

I ticked what i liked

I have stayed here in the past. I love the place.

Blue waters is the best. Only thing I would mark down is the noise from the chairs at night

Clean and comfortable room. Location great for the beach and nearby facilties like restaurants. Breakfast options were plenty and well catered. Disappointed by early closing of bar services on a Saturday night and insufficient staff during check out.

Ocean views

In the middle of everything, entertainment and sea side.

Top notch staff. I used laundry service and was extremely pleased with the quality and efficiency of service
