We had a most pleasant stay. It was comfortable and the hosts were friendly. Umhlanga is a peaceful city.
Best stay ever, wonderful and to recommend.
Arnold Knutzen, Netherlands

Spacious rooms, wonderful location near the Umhlanga coast, shops and restaurants ( only 2 minutes away ). Wonderful people ( Peter, Cilla and Sandy ) who really make you feel at home. We stayed there for 9 nights and enjoyed every minute of it. Safe neighbourhood. The breakfast is "baije lekker" ( really tasty). It is really worth every cent/rand you spent. No effort was to much to help you in any way. Peter, Cilla and Sandy many thanks for a wonderful stay, we will come back again!!! ... more

Lezanne Jansen, South Africa
04 September 2006
From the moment we arrived at Anchor's Rest; it felt like home ... away from home. Our hosts (Peter & Cilla) made us feel very comfortable. The room we occupied was decorated well and is maintained with great care! The daily breakfasts we enjoyed were absolutely mouth-watering ~ what a treat!! We truly enjoyed our stay at Anchor's Rest and would love to re-visit it sometime soon!!
