great family stay with perks
Had a lovely time here! The room was comfy and had a nice layout. The heated pool was awesome for the kids. Breakfast buffet was really good, and the staff was attentive, making sure everything was fresh. Only thing was the check-in could've been more welcoming. Definitely a great location near the mall!

Great experience at Garden Court Umhlanga! The breakfast buffet offered a wide variety, keeping everyone satisfied. Loved the heated pool, perfect for the kids. Quick check-in made settling in easy. Room had 2 queen-size beds, comfortable and spotless. Staff were exceptional except for one front desk member who raised her voice when we returned towels. A small hiccup happened with the initial room's air conditioning not working properly, but the staff addressed it after I requested a room change. Location near Gateway Mall couldn't be better for exploring dining options. a solid stay!

I had a rough start with the TV not working in my room—maintenance suggested moving but it took 30 minutes before I got any assistance. The replacement room felt dated and lacked basic amenities like a cable plug. The breakfast could use some flavor and friendliness. the egg station's preparation was efficient but lacked warmth. After some not-so-great interactions during check-in and at the breakfast station, it felt less inviting than past visits, despite being accustomed to a more enjoyable experience.

excellent service but room needed some updates
The staff here were exceptional, always making us feel welcome with attentive service. Our standard room offered a beautiful pool view, which added to the overall atmosphere of our stay. Breakfast has a wide variety of options, definitely catering to all tastes and preferences for families. My kids loved the spacious areas to play and explore, giving us peace during our stay.
The room itself felt a bit dated and could use some refreshing touches.
