"Absolutely everything was perfect! I would love to come back again. There's a quaint little coffee shop and restaurant on the premises. The host, Mary-Ann, is super helpful and friendly. The bedrooms have everything you need, and they are beautifully decorated and clean. It's in an excellent area and like 1-minute drive from the mall."

"It was worth every second to be at the place"

"Had the best time of our lives, everything was in order from the minute we arrived we were warmly welcomed and went straight to our room accompanied by one of the hotel ushers who made us feel at home. The room had a fresh mind relaxing feeling and the food was fresh and excellently prepared. The place made our vacation very special.

"What an amazing place to stay!! The lovely warm welcome from each individual up on arrival is just amazing!! The rooms are so clean and well maintained. Every day fresh clean bathtowels, hand towels and bath mat. The lovely garden to sit and read in peace with the nature around you is just amazing. The Guesthouse is located in such a good area with everything close by, La Lucia Mall, the beach, King Shaka Airport, Hluhluwe Game reserve and all other things to do. The staff and Management are just amazing, they so professional and helpful. We will be back here 100%!!!"

"We stayed for a couple of days at Beside Still Waters Guest House at the beginning and after our trip from Durban to Johannesburg to Durban. The venue is privately owned and that is what you feel from the moment you enter the property. All is very well kept, the staff, who is mainly family, are more then friendly and willing to assist and you see and feel the passion in this very nice Guest House. It is ideally situated near the beach and restaurants and supermarket are at walking distance. We felt very safe here and very well protected! We sure will come back here!!"

“Business trip”

"We sent two of our photographers on a recent business trip and I booked them at Beside Still Waters. We received excellent feedback regarding the friendly, professional and beautiful environment and we have marked it as a Guest House we will most certainly use in future."

"Lush..."

"Mary Ann is a dream! Extremely friendly and responsive, she went out of her way to make me feel welcome - even moving me to garden view room with a balcony to enhance my experience. The property is comfortable, cozy and secure, in a lovely walk-able neighborhood. I would recommend it highly! It was perfect for me, as I was meeting family that were staying 10 minutes away. I had all the convenience without the exorbitant price tag."

“The service was extraordinarily very good.”

"Fantastic it was. I would  appreciate another visit in the near future we had a warm welcoming and we were well taken care of, it really felt like home. The location of the place was very convenient, and the atmosphere was superb."

“Highly Recommended Accommodation”

"We stayed at Besides Still Waters for the recent Durban Sky Grand Prix, we had a wonderful stay there seeing that this was our first time. Good and Friendly Staff, beautiful facilities and the location is just perfect close to two shopping malls, both within walking distance. We are definitely coming back next year. Keep it up Guys!"

“Beautifully rounded & well positioned Guest House”

"I absolutely loved my stay at Bedside Still Waters. I stayed there for 13 days with friends and we were treated very well by the entire staff and family. It's location is well positioned in an affluent suburb (La Lucia) which allowed us to move freely within the proximity of shops, highways, and various popular sites. It truly felt like home away from home. Thank you for the fantastic hospitality!!!"

“Beautiful Beside Still Waters”

"Beside Still Waters is one beautiful lodge I would love to stay at anytime. The lodge is clean, homely, in a lovely neighbourhood, and close to a lovely shopping mall with everything you need. Its best assets are the people, particularly the owner Mary-Ann. A must-go when in Durban."
