"Excellent location at the sea. Breathtaking views. Beautiful swimming pool. Rooms are very large with comfortable bed. Large bathroom with good shower. Rooms could get some refurbishment: spotlight rims falling apart, mirror in bathroom flaking, door to the dressing completely stuck. No fine dining restaurant."

Hampshire Hotel - Ballito

Hampshire Hotel - Ballito

📍 4048 Moffatt Drive, Ballito Business Park, Ballito
★★★ 8.1 (10 reviews)

"When we checked in the room had a terrible musky smell. It seemed to of been water damaged and not properly dried up and cleaned thereafter. We complained to the front desk and were sent to another room with the exact same issue. We complained again and were then sent to a third room but the furniture had water damage, the shower silicone grouting had mould and the toilet didn’t fill up after flushing. Eventually the manager came to us and apologised and arranged for a fourth room which was much better than the first three. One of the nights other guests were drinking and partying till the morning, slamming doors and screaming. The restaurant and bar were extremely quiet and looked extremely dull. The hotel seemed extremely quiet for peak season in an holiday town and now I understand why."

First Group la Montagne

First Group la Montagne

📍 100 Compensation Beach Rd, Ballito
★★★ 7.7 (52 reviews)

"The hotel has a large balcony, but the balcony is connected to the next door, so you must close the doors and windows at night. The hotel does not have a hair dryer. The hotel is very old. It is a renovation of an old house. It has its own swimming pool and beach, but I don’t know how to get down to the beach."

"A very short stay because of our early flight the next day. A shame, would have loved to stay a little longer. The guesthouse is very nice and the rooms are very good. The owner was very helpfull and friendly, absolutely made our short stay very pleasant. Made a take away breakfast for us and got up at 3.30 in the morning to give it to us. Just perfect."

The Seaglass

The Seaglass

📍 7A Townsend Rd, Ballito
★★★★ 9.7 (9 reviews)

"In summary - amazing accommodation, incredible views (esp sunrise), delicious breakfast, superb hosts…..and the best pool (for doing lengths) in any place we have ever stayed. We will be travelling to Ballito a fair bit in the future and have already booked our next stay. (Also extremely convenient location not far off the N2). Highly recommend. "

Sala Beach House Hotels in Ballito

Sala Beach House

"I would highly recommend this place. the views are spectacular. we stayed in an ocean view room which was just perfect. enjoyed sipping a coffee on the balcony, probably the best shower. The room was very comfortable, the food was outstanding they made special efforts with our dietary requirements. Staff were just amazing , and friendly. lovely stretch of beach to take a walk and loved the swim in the tidal pool. saw dolphins passing . overall a fantastic stay. and loved sitting in the lounge area as well as the dinning areas were great. if I had to fault anything it would be very minor the inconsistency of replacing amenities in the bathroom. other than that everything was just perfect . would love to go back"

Zimbali Lodge by Dream Resorts Hotels in Ballito

Zimbali Lodge by Dream Resorts

"I don't know why this accommodation gets such poor reviews. It's unique. Large, well equipped with everything you need. Great views from large balconies. The lodge itself is great, fab swimming pool, food good and the staff could not be more helpful, accommodating and generally just lovelly. Nothing is too much trouble. Just 2 points I would like to bring up. Firstly unless you have a car you have to rely on Uber. We didn't have to wait long but others have. Secondly, the pool area is fab but just 3 children screaming can spoil everything. I'm all for children enjoying themselves but their parents are quaffing cocktails while their kids are shattering ear drums. I guess it is what it is. The bottom line is that it's a great place and I've yet to experience unhelpful staff. On the contrary."

"This suite was clean, great service from staff. Gate management a bit too much but overall great stay here."

Hampshire Hotel - Ballito ★★★
"We booked a Saturday night stay. Reception staff were very pleasant and welcoming. Our rooms were neat with a large bed, desk, occasional chair, bar fridge, microwave and kettle. Tea and coffee was also provided. Sufficient parking is available within the property and in the basement. Our room was adjacent to thd pool. Some guests at the pool area were so noisy that we were woken from our sleep. You can also hear the vehicle sounds from the freeway. Breakfast is optional extra at R155 per person. Room service is available until 10 pm."

The Saffron House ★★★
"I have been to the Sea Rendipity Guesthose for two days in march 2024. It was my second stay there. Salt Rock was the last station of my three weeks roadtrip to the east of South Africa. The guesthouse is located in a quiet street of Salt Rock, you can do a 600m walk to the beach or relax at the pool. I had a nice, big and clean room overlooking the pool. I recommend staying at the Sea Rendipity Guesthouse and I am looking forward to staying there again for a third time on a future trip to South Africa. Thank you for your kindness, your hospitality and your good advice!"
