112 guests' feedback8 Eden Sands is absolute value for money. Will always use their accommodation. Would maybe just ask for a washing machine to be added too, but otherwise it's a really fantastic place to be. Walking distance to the beach, everything close enough and location great.
The view is breathtaking and we had a really nice and comfortable stay.
It was very nice.
Very nice place. Safe and on the beach.
A very nice long weekend spent.
Enjoyed it a lot. It was absolutely wonderful.
Great beach flat, simple, basic. Everything we needed. Clean and secure. Ample parking. Frustrating to have to supply own dish soap, toilet paper, bin bags, and bath towels for such a short stay and advised only the day before arrival. No hangers in the cupboards.
Neat and clean. Most beautiful sea view.
Yes, the view was heavenly. Some things to renovate. Worth it though.
Very neat unit with beautiful view and access to the beach.
Absolutely stunning. Everything is excellent.
The unit is very basic with outdated furniture and accessories. The furniture is not the same as in the pictures. The location is perfect for the fisherman.
Apartment very warm. Window in room can't open, so no fresh air coming in if the power goes out. Otherwise very nice.
Checking in was so easy. The gentleman at the office was so friendly and helpful. The unit was really spacious and clean. Beautiful pool, beach access, and overall good value for money.
Will definitely make our way down to Eden Sands again in the near future.
Location is super with everything nearby.
Lovely unit, great view. Everything you need, except WiFi. Comfy beds.
Lovely clean swimming pool with an adjacent toddler pool, well maintained complex in a safe environment. Just heard too late that towels, toilet paper, dish soap are not provided, otherwise very good. Air conditioning would have made a big difference.
Very nice view. Feels like you can be at the sea 24 hours a day. Swimming pool is nice if the sea is not swimmable.
The microwave does not work. The multiplug for the TV does not work. The stove plates and security gate are badly rusted. The unit could do with a fresh coat of paint.
Doesn't have a double bed in the master bedroom, bathroom window is broken and toilet very uncomfortable, bath not like that either, not worth the money.
Perfect place for a family to have a getaway.
Place needed the most. Just take your own cleaning products, towels etc. together. The view makes up for the rest.
The place is on top.
View is breathtaking, beautiful place to stay and beautiful people.
It was so easy to communicate with the owner Mr Gevers, he trusted us with his flat and it made us feel comfortable and at home. His flat is situated at the right place close to the beach we really had lovely time.
It was just amazing in all honesty.
Had the most beautiful view. Will absolutely book again!
Very nice place. Will go back again.
Would definitely recommend a stay here.
Stay at Eden Sands Nr 8 was very nice with a lovely sea view. Would definitely recommend it.
Ideal for a quiet relaxing time with family. Place was clean and safe. Beautiful beach view.
However, the advertisement indicates that there is a double bed in the master bedroom.
Very nice on the beach, nice sea view and nice pool. Cushions need to be replaced. Could do with aircon or even better fans. Will stay there again. Enjoyed a lot.
So nice to stay on the beach so to speak. Nice to swim in the pool when it's windy on the beach.
We are a family with 2 teenagers and 1 toddler (all boys) and were very lucky to find this place at short notice. The unit is right on the beach with the most beautiful view. The complex is beautiful and well maintained with a sparkling swimming pool. We will definitely vacation there again. If you have to say something negative to the people who are always looking for something negative: There are a few pieces of cutlery missing and the shower head needs a little love. Many thanks to the owner who was willing to meet us and LekkeSlaap who helped us quickly.
Everyone in complex is friendly, feels like everyone has known each other for years, units are very clean, as well as the pool washed every day its alluring bright blue. Unit currently does not have aircon, which in my personal opinion would definitely be another positive point that can be ticked off, but our general summary of unit as well as complex is clean, friendly and safe holiday accommodation. Thanks to Leon, the owner, who helped us so quickly and nimbly with the accommodation arrangements under the circumstances.
See stars.
Friendly welcome by the owner himself. Everything nice and clean. Would just prefer the tub/shower to just be a shower.
Very neat complex, spotless pool.
Very neat and comfortable. Nice view of the sea.
Fully equipped with everything that you need. Place is very neat and clean and very friendly staff. Will definitely come again!
It's a beautiful view and a nice clean place. A few things need some attention. Like the tablecloth. But we will go again for sure.
It was very pleasant. Felt safe at all times. The accommodation is very neat. Grounds on the premises are very neat. Thank you very much.
We had real fun. The place is tops.
It was peaceful, easy access to all malls and food outlets and was absolutely beautiful, very convenient.
Apartment very well furnished. Maybe just need decent fans for the hot summer evenings.
It was easy, no fuss for anything and most relaxing.
Very safe, view is awesome. Is very safe in the complex. Place is nice clean and tidy. Everyone is friendly, would go again.
Safe place where the children can swim and play.
Clean, tidy, quiet, nice view! Nice stay, thank you!
We loved our stay at 8 Eden Sands. It had breathtaking views. Cosy little flat. It was clean and tidy, will definitely be back.
Great spot. Comfortable with the most fantastic view.
Apartment is very comfortable. We only experienced that the double sofa is broken and collapses when you want to sit down, so there is little seating. We had a little trouble with ants in the fridge. But otherwise our stay was wonderful and will book again if we have to visit Durban. Also easy to experience from there on N2 als. Thank you for your hospitality and help with extra bookings. Good service.
Barbecue facilities could be better. Kitchen utensils, especially knives, need replacement and are not convenient to use.
Not happy at all, we had to wait outside at check-out on Sunday. Check-out was supposed to be before 10, but we were told to go before 9, we had to wait outside for our transport. I will not be booking that flat again. 8 Eden Sands, we paid money, it's not for free. I had 3 young children with me. The place is fine, but as for service, I give it a zero. Not happy at all.
It is a very clean apartment and the location is excellent, simply loved the pool. I would recommend the owner to install an aircon and WIFI at this flat and also if they could improve the braai facilities, other than that beautiful place highly recommended.
Place was very neat and well equipped. Felt safe in the complex, children made friends easily and played well. Sea view from the unit was a big plus. Could also go fishing on the beach. Sofas in unit just weren't very comfortable.
We had an amazing holiday Beautiful complex with amazing sea views I will definitely came back soon . The complex is secure and safe with nice facilities on the complex swimming pool and braai area. The place was nice and clean I will definitely recommend family and friends to visit the place
Very nice view would definitely recommend Eden Sands as a destination. Very nice quiet place
It is a wonderful and beautiful place for very cheap with a wonderful sea view. Very neat and safe. It is great that it is walking distance from the beach and that there is a swimming pool for the children. Great service and really worth it.
Not only is it very safe but the sea view is the best. Nice big swimming pool. Was a very nice place. Will visit again
Wonderful view, clean and tidy. Close to the pool and close to the sea.
As a family of 4 we had a wonderful time, welcome was very friendly. Residence and view are wonderful. Will definitely recommend. Will definitely book 8 Eden Sands again.
I will recommend 8 Eden Sands to my friends. Just as I don't regret going there, I'm definitely sure my friends won't regret going to 8 Eden Sands for vacation.
Very neat, nice apartment and well equipped. Very nice break away. Excellent view.
The apartment has a breathtaking view of the sea and beach, and is right by the complex's swimming pool which makes it ideal for a quick cool down. The braai facilities in the complex may be a bit small if the complex is fully booked. The lawn is short and neat and the garden is a pleasure to walk around in.
Eden Sands 8 does not look at all like it is represented on the website! The benches are green, torn and filthy. The unit is advertised as sleeping for 6. There were only 4 cubes to sit on, 2 of which were broken. We came in on Sunday, the owner let us know on Monday and he only bought 5 new chairs on Wednesday. The shower was broken and needed to be repaired first. The stovetops and barbecue equipment are rusted. All of the above wasn't the worst! Paying R10,000.00 for 6 nights and then being eaten by bed bugs was probably the icing on the cake! I have photos of all of the above and more.
Value for money. Accommodation was clean. Kids were safe. Will visit again.
The owner was very nice and supportive throughout the journey. The employees were also very friendly and we enjoyed the sea view ─ it was perfect.
It was very nice, the little ones enjoyed it a lot too, we really didn't want to go home! The staff was also very nice. Eden Sands definitely see us again!
We had a very quiet weekend, just what we were looking for.
Ex very glad that I chose Eden Sands to stay. Felt like my own home and it's really cheap compared to what the place offers. Safety is top notch, view over the sea to the fore.
A big thank you for the excellent assistance with our booking. We will definitely recommend this homely and amazing holiday flat to family and friends and everyone we know.
Great. Very nice. Very nice view.
I am very impressed by the services rendered regarding the booking of the place because I was looking for affordable accommodation. I would definitely recommend this place to my friends and family and also I would personally come and stay at this place again. My husband and I really enjoyed our stay there. Thank you to the agents and assistance keep up the great work.
The view over the sea was awesome. We saw dolphins and whales. The walk on the beach was great. Our weather didn't play well together, but we really enjoyed the time. I would go there again anytime. Everything was at hand and well located. The little apartment was good enough for us. I believe we would have enjoyed the beach more if the weather had cooperated. The security was great. Nice pool. A children's playground was advertised, but we did not find it. I think a play frame or place would only make it even more attractive for the kids.
Important to note that it is on the 2nd floor with stairs.
Love the proximity to the ocean.
If I could name something that wasn't right, the view would make up for it. How nice it was to fall asleep to the sound of the waves every night. The whole complex is neat, a stone's throw from the beach. Lovely pool to cool off. Staff were friendly and helpful. The owner, Leon, was always available for any questions I had.
Amazing view and loved that it is so close to the swimming pool, just up the stairs.
It was great value for money. Tranquil surroundings. Only wish is that the pool was heated, would have loved to spend more time in it. All in all we had an awesome time.
I enjoyed the stay.
My family and I are frequent travellers and we were pleasantly surprised by the beauty of this place. We felt so welcome by the people at the reception. The place is magnificently beautiful. Neatly manicured lawns, crystal clear pool only a flight of stairs away from the apartment, private beach access, and a remote controlled secure complex. We were completely taken aback because this place was worth every penny and more. We entered the flat to find the most amazing view of the ocean. You wake up to a glorious sunrise and wind down with a breath taking sunset.There are simply no words to describe the splendour of it all. The apartment was clean, neat and tidy. Thank you for having such quality facilities. Thank you for providing extra warm bedding as it was cold during our stay. The only problem experienced was that sound wasn't playing when we tried to use the DVD. Would really appreciate a mop in the apartment to clean up spills. The pool should be made a little warmer. Otherwise it was the best weekend ever. Thank you so much. We will definitely be back soon!
Enjoyed it a lot. View is fantastic.
Small but neat, comfortable and fantastic sea view and right by the pool. Really enjoyed it and have already booked to go again.
Value for money. Safe in a holiday complex with everything you need.
Everything about 8 Eden Sands was great, no complaints, the kids enjoyed it and a place you can relax as no noise clean and just hear the ocean, would recommend this to anyone.
This is an absolute best place to be, especially in whale season. We as a family really hope to experience it again.
The apartment is comfortable but not of a high standard. I would have appreciated a more complete cleaning service, or at least being able to hire the cleaners myself. Who wants to wash dishes and make beds on vacation? I was hoping for a porch that I could sit on and barbecue, didn't realize the apartment had no porch. The built complex of barbecue places is in no way located near the apartment. The beach is really nice and close and very beautiful. The children had fun swimming in the pool, but an old roof / shaded area for parents / children would be practical. The owner of the apartment is great, with help quickly available, should something go wrong. Thank you for a peaceful holiday, it was nice.
Cutlery and grill were very dirty. Dining room chairs are broken. Living room couches have dirty spots on them. Dirty and untidy. Very dissatisfied.
Excellent accommodation. Swimming pool's gate must be fixed. It does not latch properly. The accommodation itself was excellent.
Direct beach access. All that was missing was a built-in braai.
Place was very good ,clean, peace of mind, reviving!
Had a great time. No issues.
Will definitely visit 8 Eden Sands again.
Fantastic sea view and pleasant neighbours. Shops and main beach very close. Clean and tidy complex.
Very nice place to stay - it has everything one needs for a getaway.
Think this place needs an aircon, otherwise very nice.
It was an excellent holiday. The view over the ocean was amazing! It is just the caretakers that were difficult. Early on the first evening we were swimming in the pool with the lights on and when they saw that we were in the pool, they switched the pool lights off at night for the rest of our holiday. The neighbours of the complex were very unfriendly. It's probably just people who are unhappy with themselves. But the owner of the flat is very friendly and helped us nicely. They also sent us some information. We were well informed with the necessary info, as we asked. He was very friendly. Unforgettably good holiday!
The place, owner and everything was simply amazing. Really enjoyed it.
We were very satisfied. The apartment was very neat and comfortable with everything you need. And the beautiful sea view... I wish I could take it home with me! Our son really enjoyed the pool! Many thanks also to Leon Gevers for his help with our late arrival. What a beautiful place, we will definitely be staying here again!
It was a very nice holiday and I really enjoyed my stay in 8 Eden Sands. Everything was 100% and would love to vacation there again. From the apartment to the safety and convenience of everything being so close and everything was just too perfect. Thank you very much.
The apartment is very comfortable and well equipped. The view is wonderful. Our stay there was really very pleasant.
Our holiday was absolutely wonderful, I will definitely go there again. Mr Gevers, thank you for your consideration.
Once again a good all rounder break away.
We had to drive to the swimming beach. Beautiful view of ocean. Tidy apartment equipped with everything you need.
Eden Sands is very centrally located with an incredible view of the sea. Would recommend to anyone wanting to visit Durban.
The apartment was tidy, the owner gave feedback all the time and chatted via Whatsapp. Right on the sea (100 m) and the complex is clean and safe. The apartment is also right by the nice swimming pool.
I would highly recommend it. View is excellent. The shops are also very close so you don't have to drive far.
Very nice, good view, neat place and very well equipped.
