    It was great, first of all the host who had helped us with all our questions. The apartment and the view is perfect. However, the gate to the beach should be repaired, the code no longer works and we were lucky that someone had heard us upstairs...

This is a beautiful, upmarket apartment which is tastefully furnished with an eclectic flair for the discerning holidaymaker or business traveler alike. Situated on the beach at Sheffield Beach, Ballito, it has direct access to a secluded beach, a large swimming pool in the complex with a braai (barbecue) area for those relaxing afternoons, and is equipped with all of the comforts to make relaxation even easier, including Netflix, uncapped WiFi, an automatic washing machine and a dishwasher.
