Crooked Tree Cottage
-
Accommodation is offered in 3 guest rooms in a cottage, and 3 separate self-catering studio suites. Each room and suite has an en-suite bathroom, a TV with OVHD, Netflix and YouTube access, free Wi-Fi, air-conditioning, tea- and coffee- making facilities, and hairdryers. Additionally, the studios have kitchenettes which are well equipped with a bar fridge or a fridge-freezer, a microwave, and a 2-plate induction stove.
When the guest rooms are booked together as one cottage, the guests will have access to a well-equipped kitchen and a spacious dining and lounge area opening onto a sea-facing balcony. There is a deck area with seating at the entrance to the cottage with braai facilities available on request. All guests have access to a communal swimming pool.
Crooked Tree is ideally suited for self-catering holiday's during peak seasons, but is also perfect as a stop-and-go for a short trip or a business trip. The sea views from the balconies are magnificent and the bird life is amazing to watch. Vervet monkeys are almost daily visitors and the occasional woolly necked storks can be spotted in the branches of the trees.
Oceans Mall is 1km away and Gateway Theatre of Shopping is 2 km away. Durban CBD and ICC are about 17 km away. Umhlanga New Town Centre and the La Lucia Ridge office park are nearby, and the accommodation is close to both the M4 and the N2 highways making access to Durban and the rest of KZN extremely efficient.

24 guests' feedbackI enjoyed my stay at Crooked Tree Cottage. Thanks to Helen and her staff for a lovely experience. I will return there next time I'm in Durban again. My room was clean and tidy and had everything I needed.
Awesome place. Clean and neat. Service was fatastic!
We enjoyed our stay at Crooked Tree Cottage, it was so awesome. You welcomed us so warmly and we felt like we were at home. Furthermore, your place was pin neat, clean and well equipped with adequate fans, air conditioner, and open plan kitchen and lounge facility. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and were taken with the free cereal, coffee, sugar, and milk provided. Thank you.
Crooked Tree Cottage is close to all the restaurants in Umhlanga, the guest house is well maintained and the customer service is excellent.
Will definitely come again. Highly recommended.
Yes, we had a great stay for sure.
Helen and everyone are very friendly and it was amazing accommodation.
Neat, nice view and the breakfast was delicious.
I would definitely stay there again, everything about my room was top quality. The owner, Helen, is pleasant to deal with, she is friendly and considerate. Thank you very much for a nice stay.
We would be happy to recommend Crooked Tree Cottage. Friendly, neat and so much more. Helen is an asset to anyone new (or not) to the area. The bed and shower are top notch - like few before.
Beautiful, clean and well-located, and a great view of the sea. Very friendly, yet professional hosts, good breakfasts.
The owners are very friendly and helpful. And the breakfast is fantastic.
Extremely excellent guest house, very friendly welcome and accommodation, breakfast is of very high quality and the room, very professionally designed. Will stay there again.
We had a lovely stay! Great aircon room equipped with everything needed as well as a beautiful view! Breakfast was amazing!!
We had an excellent time!
Very good service and value.
Our family spent 10 days at Crooked Tree Lodge over the December holiday period. The accommodation was perfect and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Helen gave us a separate unit consisting of three bedrooms and a lounge, kitchen dining area. Each bedroom has its own en-suite bathroom. We enjoyed making use of the pool area and swimming with Helen's dogs. The unit was spotless and the staff who attended to the daily servicing were extremely friendly, kind and helpful. The beach is close by and although we could have walked we elected to drive.
We were received very kindly and the owner was very willing to be adaptable in relation to our needs. The place is spacious and has a small kitchen with a stove and a dining table. The stoep is small, but has a nice view. I would recommend it to anyone.
The accommodation was very neat and pleasant. Hostess very helpful and got the most delicious breakfast. Value for money. We would recommend it.
I recommended Crooked Tree Cottage to my ex-colleagues.
My husband and I stayed at Crooked Tree Cottage for a few days before Christmas. We had a wonderful stay! The photos are very accurate. It completely met our expectations. The self-catering unit we stayed in (no. 5) is very nice and intimate - with a king-size bed, TV, DStv, air conditioning, a small table to eat at, and a nice veranda with a nice view of the sea and the surrounding Umhlanga. The kitchenette has a small fridge, kettle, two-plate stove and all the basics you need to make breakfast, and even simple dinners. They also offered to bring us a braai if we needed one. Helen and her husband were very helpful and friendly, there was even milk, coffee, tea and breakfast porridge available for us in the unit. We also had fun swimming in the pool at the guest house, the water was delicious, and there are changing chairs and a place to hang out by the pool too. The bathroom has a spacious shower, and there is a mirror close to an electrical point inside the closet. There is also a hairdryer and a safe in the unit. The location is very good, you are 5 minutes drive from Gateway, and from the beach. We had a really nice stay, and can really recommend the place!
Have enjoyed my stay. A bit far from the beaches - have to drive, but this won't stop me from staying at Crooked Tree Cottage again. People are friendly and helpful.
Thank you very much for your hospitality.
The rooms wewre very comfortable and clean.It is a place that one can recommend to other people without a doubt.
