Description

Oslo Beach is situated in the heart of the popular Hibiscus Coast – between Port Shepstone and Shelly Beach, an hour's drive from Durban International Airport. Put on the map by the Norwegian Settlers who landed at the Umzimkhulu River Mouth in 1882 to begin farming on their 100 acre allotments. This is South Africa's most favoured beach destination as the east coast is washed by the warm Indian Ocean and has beautiful weather even in the middle of winter.

La Providence is a beautiful home, thoughtfully furnished with every room lovingly appointed to make your visit as enjoyable as possible. The bedrooms spill out onto balconies with magnificent beach views.
The house has direct access to a quiet beach with rock pools and gullies or surf- washed sands. It is so easy to stroll down the path through the coastal dune vegetation for a swim, a walk along the coast or angling off the rocks. And, should the sun be too hot, to return to the shade of the large Red and White Milkwoods or to relax at the swimming pool with a good book. There is no better way to enjoy the seaside than this. Or one can step out of one's bedroom onto the private balcony and watch the dolphins, whales, sea birds – you cannot get closer without going to sea. In the evening one can relax with a sundowner and watch the moon rising across the water.
