133 guests' feedbackWe arrived late but we were welcomed open-handed and friendly by the owner.
We were kindly welcomed by the host. The place was very neat and clean. The accommodation is safe and nice and close to the rugby stadium we went to. The breakfast was top notch and so delicious. Will come back again anytime.
See stars.
Service is good and the place is neat.
The aunt was very friendly.
Lia was an amazing host!
I had a beautiful and pleasant stay, well suited for the weekend rest I needed.
Yes, the guest house is not close to shops or the beach.
The breakfast was delicious. Environment was quiet and safe, close to most places. Lia was a hospitable host.
We had a wonderful stay and wouldn't mind going back there whenever we go to Durban. The service was absolutely amazing.
The host was very caring and accommodating beyond that which can be reasonably expected. She communicated well and met our needs at each point of contact. She was also very honest and approachable throughout the stay as well as after. We will definitely stay there again.
Thanks for the hospitality.
Lia was the best host ever, very friendly and helpful. She made us laugh so much. The rooms were very clean and exactly as pictured on the website. Will definitely be using Riverside de Charmoy on our next Durban visit.
I would definitely recommend Riverside de Charmoy Guesthouse. Lia received me very kindly and went out of her way to pamper me. The breakfast was off the books.
Amazing and peaceful.
Lea is friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our stay. I would recommend a bell on the entrance gate.
Baie lekker gebly en sal dit belsis aanbeveel. Eienaars is baie vriendelike mense en laat jou sommer gou tuis voel.
The guesthouse was clean, the food there is good and they have good customer service.
Lovely place, parking is a bit tricky if you drive a large vehicle and especially if you have hitched a trailer, but otherwise nothing wrong.
The place is very peaceful and quiet, the hospitality by Lia, the manager, she is so sweet and welcoming.
Lea is a very hospitable person who takes care of her guests' needs. The swimming pool was a relief in Durban's heat and the breakfast was also delicious!
Slept well and had breakfast. Very calm atmosphere. Enjoyed movie nights. Your car is safe in the area. Service was pleasant. The prices for accommodation were very cheap. Can't really complain.
If you like home away from home, this is for you. The home owner is one of the most hospitable and down to earth people you'll ever meet. This guest house offers absolute silence, safe from COVID-19. Great service. Quiet. Hygienic. The property is small, but the rooms are spacious. I could shut down with no disturbances. I suffered from PTSD - this place was perfect for me to start recovery from the Gauteng rat race. I felt at home quick, away from my home! My car was safe, food is great. Close to many attractions and easy to find. You can't hear the sea, but the forest sounds was great.
Apart from from being far from everything it is a very relaxing place to visit away from all noise and also good for the kids. They really enjoyed their stay.
Our stay was fantastic Lea our host was awesome. Lea made us feel so welcome. I will always go back their when I am in Durban.
We had a great stay and the room was always clean and we had a nice breakfast. Will stay there again.
We did not have water to drink ─ we had to use bathroom water to drink. They should put bottled water in the fridge for guests. For breakfast they should have a variety. Breakfast set up not appealing.
We enjoyed our stay, first time with the kids and for us it was our second time. The kids enjoyed the pool so much apart from the weather. The hospitality is perfect.
Very well managed! Lia the manager at this guesthouse was super professional and the breakfast menu was excellent, friendly staff, very clean facilities! Every cent spent was worth it, keep up the good work, we really enjoyed our stay!
Thank you so much. The place was very nice.
Had a great stay at this guesthouse. Lovely swimming pool and lapa. The breakfast was good and the price is included. 10 minutes away from the sport stadiums. 24 hour security. The hostess, Lea, was lovely. Will definitely stay there again.
The place was cosy and full of heart. Easy access to the pool. Beautiful and relaxing place to stay.
Very kindly received by Lia with her endearing smile. Very friendly service. Quiet environment with access controlled and behind security gates. Beautiful pool and garden. Enjoyed a delicious English breakfast in the morning. We needed transportation from the airport and the next day to the port and she helped. She waited with us until the Uber arrived which she personally recommended. Can recommend guest house.
Riverside Charmoy is 'n pragtige plek. Skoon. Leah, die gasvrou was baie vriendelik en toeganklik. Die skoonmaakdiens is betroubaar. Ons het veilig en welkom gevoel. Charmoy is naby die malls en verskillende strande en interessante plekke soos die Voëlpark en Ushaka Marine World. 'n Lekker blyplek.
The service was excellent, from the reception to the breakfast! The location may not be ideal, but for one night's comfortable and tidy accommodation it was perfect!
Our room wasn't as clean it should've been on the day of our arrival. Bad communication from the owner of the place.
Beautiful guest house with amazing service, paid attention to details. Guest house is located in a great area. I will definitely go back to Riverside de Charmoy Guest House.
Lovely accommodation in a quiet and secure neighbourhood. Like home-from home! Lia is very friendly and helpful. Can definitely recommend.
Beautifully appointed room with the most friendly and accommodating host you can imagine. It is centrally located to the city but secluded and quiet enough that you don't even realize you are actually in a city. Very relaxing atmosphere about the whole place. Lia is worth her weight in gold!
We really enjoyed the stay and the breakfast was top notch. Thank you very much for the extra effort in printing out the paperwork.
We enjoyed our stay immensely! Lia and Gary were very helpful and supporting. The beds were made every morning and the place were cleaned. Parking was safe and all appliances were in working condition. Thank you for everything!
Lia welcomed us with open arms. I have never encountered such hospitable people in my life as at Riverside. Thank you very much for the good experience.
What a wonderful, peaceful place to stay. Very relaxing, clean and near shopping and access roads to Durban and Pietermaritzburg and with friendly service and help with anything from our host.
Thank you Lia. Wow, what a beautiful place. You have gone beyond our expectations. Thank you for all the help and an amazing breakfast. 5 stars for the lodge. May you grow from success to success. I'll be back.
Lia was willing to wait for me until after 22:00 on Sunday. Made a lot of effort with breakfast. Neat, clean rooms. Very safe.
Relaxing area with access control and behind gates. Beautiful pool and garden. Very friendly reception from Lia with her welcoming smile. Soft but ferm mattress, great night's sleep. Delicious English Breakfast with tasty freshly-baked muffins in the morning. I can really recommend this guesthouse.
Location on point, 16 minutes away from the most wanna be places, gateway mall, Ushaka Marine World, within 6 minutes to Blue Lagoon beach. Moses Mabida stadium close by, clean, neat and very relaxing, quite and very safe which gives you peace of mind. Friendly owner Lia will make you feel at home.
The photos make it look much bigger and more luxurious than it is. But the room was very clean, bed was very comfortable. Felt very safe. Breakfast was value for money over and over again. For the price it really is value for money.
The people were lovely and the place was clean. I would definitely go there again.
Lia was so helpful and makes you really feel at home. I travel a lot for business and sleep in guesthouses - according to me Riverside de Charmoy Guesthouse is one of the best I have ever stayed at. Highly recommended.
Was very neat and the owner very friendly and accommodating.
Thanks Lia, we had a great stay. Close to our venue where we needed to be every morning. Convenient. Our self-catering unit was cleaned daily, even the Sunday! I would definitely recommend your establishment. See you next year!
Our family stayed for a few days for a sporting event and the little apartment was perfect. Everything was clean and tidy and we would stay there again.
We had a great time and Lia is such an amazing person. The warm welcome. The cleanness and also the service is so amazing. We are definitely coming back soon with the kids.
Lia was very hospitable and breakfast was very tasty. We needed transportation and she was able to quickly help with that as well. The guest house has a nice peaceful atmosphere. We will definitely stay there again and would definitely recommend it.
Lia was very friendly and helpful and it was the best guesthouse that we have experienced ever, plus the best tour guide Robert aka Rob.
We were two couples who stayed at the 2 bed apartment. The privacy and peacefulness was exactly what we wanted, we had an amazing time and looking forward to booking again soon. Lia was always there on call to assist with anything.
Lia was very welcoming and helpful from confirmation of booking. Her first mail of welcome set the tone and her willingness to wait up for us until we arrived, in the 'wee hours of the morning of Saturday, showed she was prepared to 'walk the extra mile' for us. The accommodation was just what we needed; tasteful and understated but providing for all our needs. The attention we received was adequate and honest, not contrived nor over the top and never patronizing. As much as we love to hear the sound of the sea when we sleep, we' d much rather be at Riverside de Charmoy the next time we are in Durban.
Extremely friendly and helpful hosts, good breakfast and a pleasant clean unit. Will definitely go back again.
We enjoyed our stay thoroughly. Good and friendly service. Needed transport to nearby shops and they gladly helped.
A lovely, quiet place. Lia and partner are very welcoming and helpful. The rooms were clean, spacious with aircon. Some of the rooms are still wooden and makes it stuffy, but the the aircon helped after a day.
Our time at Riverside de Charmoy Guest House was fantastic. We will definitely book there again.
See the ratings.
The guest house is lovely. Such a peaceful and tranquil environment. Lia the owner is so attentive and very welcoming. The place is well-kept and very clean. Looking forward to our next stay.
Comfortable overnight accommodation. Breakfast was top notch and will use them again if I travel in their area.
Hospitable and friendly. Rooms very nice and clean.
Place was clean,welcoming and not forgetting the friendly staff and Lia. I would personally recommend it to family and friends.
I recommend Riverside de Charmoy for sure. Had a pleasant reception and a great night's rest. Friendly staff with clean facilities and safe area close to everything. Definitely value for money.
We were looking forward to our Valentine's Day stay, and weren't disappointed. Lia welcomed us from start to finish, her hospitality enthuses anybody to go back! Many thanks to the TravelGround team and their excellent effort, I am pleased and am already planning my next stay, much appreciated!!! Keep up the good work.
Lia and the family gave us a warm welcome and the staff were friendly and very helpful. The rooms were spacious, neat and clean. The surrounding area amenities are quite far out, which may be a problem for anyone relying on public transport. However, I will recommend the place to my family and friends.
Very tidy and hostess very friendly.
See the stars.
Will definitely recommend this place to friends and family.
Had a great stay overall, everything was on point.
I will stay there again if the opportunity permits.
Carpet was dirty, beds weren't made properly. Other than that, everything else was fine.
Everything was perfect, only problem was cellphone network.
Very friendly staff.
Friendly and good value for money.
The place was clean, neat and absolutely beautiful. The hostess was friendly and very welcoming. I am definitely going back!
We were welcomed by the house Manager Lia . She makes you feel comfortable and relaxed . Riverside de Charmoy is an ideal getaway to relax and unwind. The next time I visit Durban North, I will stay here for longer than just a weekend
Very neat and professional, thank you!
Outstanding, amazing!
Was a pleasant stay. We were very happy with everything.
Lia is very cooperative and all the staff were very supportive. We had a pleasant trip and enjoyed our time here a lot.
A good guest house and a great stay.
Friendly reception, very comfortable room, beautiful garden and delicious breakfast. I can recommend de Charmoy.
Very good value for money.
Can recommend the place anytime. Has everything you need and the staff is friendly and helpful. The safety is also first class. It was already our second overnight stay there.
The place is safe. Value for money. Friendly. Definitely a place we will see again.
Such nice people that own the place, we had such a good time there and will most definitely return. The lapa with the fairy lights is so romantic and peaceful to sit under and the breakfast's were amazing! So much help was given to us so that we could see all the fun and exciting sights in Durban!
See the stars below.
All in all a very nice place, thanks. Will be staying at the B&B again in the future.
Lovely place, stayed in the self-catering apartment which was spacious, clean and well-equipped with a lovely view of the pool area. Lia was a wonderful host and the breakfast was awesome. Would definitely recommend staying there and will hopefully come back soon.
It was "great", a lot of effort was made, and friendly and good service was received! Will definitely stay there again!
We really enjoyed it! Will definitely go there again.

Enjoyed my stay, the host was very friendly and the breakfast was great!
The owner is amazing. She is kind and so friendly.
Lovely, cosy and private place. We really enjoy our stay and have already recommended to my friends. Thank Lia for your hospitality, you were a great host.
See the stars below.
I like the place.
The front view of the guest house could improve, as could parking for cars. The room was beautiful and breakfast excellent. The hostess is very friendly.
A quiet and safe area. The facilities are very neat and clean. The coffee in the room was disappointing. Breakfast was little and cold. I had trouble accessing the premises. Parking is not suitable for large vehicles.
Most Durban attractions are just a few minutes drive away like the beach, town,mall etc. The owner is very accommodating, as are the staff.
We stayed over for one night and thoroughly enjoyed it. Lia was a great host and very accommodating. The room was clean and comfortable, and breakfast was delicious!!!
Had a wonderful and relaxed time. Would recommend it to friends and family. The venue is private and welcoming. Staff and the owner Lia were wonderful. Thank you so much for the wonderful time.
The accommodation is beautiful and ideal. It's close to all of the hotspot in Durban. The manageress and her assistant are wonderful and hospitable. I would definitely recommend Riverside de Charmoy to anyone.
I can confidently recommend the guest house and would use them again anytime.
Beautiful and relaxing environment. Friendly staff. Close to beaches, stadium etc.
Great stay.
Lovely venue with excellent facilities.
I proposed to my Fiancee on our weekend stay at Riverside de Charmoy, so it will always be a special place to us. Lia, the owner, was so friendly and helpful with giving us directions for getting there. We'll definitely be staying here again!
We enjoyed our stay very much and thought that Lia was very accommodating. Will definitely return here when we are next in the Durban area.
Thank you to Lia and her staff for making our stay enjoyable.
Lia, you are a star, we enjoyed our stay and really miss the breakfast!
Introduction on arrival was excellent. Service was great. Unit was very clean. Thank you.
Close to all the hot spots, yet in a safe area. Comfortable, great place for family outings.
The owner Lie is so nice and understanding.
We had a very good stay, Lea is very informative and went out of her way for us! Thank you sooo much, we will definitely go back!
We had a very good time in Durban and Lia is a warm and easy to engage with host. Thanks Lia for making us feel at home. I will definitely recommend the establishment to friends and family. We had a nice break away from the hussle and bustle of Johannesburg in a relaxed clean enviroment.
My family and I were very happy.
Feel that the place is much smaller than the pictures show, and a big improvement is needed on the breakfast. Otherwise, good value for money.
My stay at the guest house was excellent. Loved that the place is close to everything. Lia is such a great person and I would love to stay here again.
The whole family is very friendly and helpful, it was an amazing experience even the kids enjoyed it. I will definitely recommend de Charmoy Estate because it's not too far from the beach +- 8 minutes drive. I really love it!
The stay was awesome, really enjoyed it and so did the kids, they loved it.
The guest house was nice and suitable for our needs. We liked it.
What a nice place, this will be our home everytime we go to Durban. We had a fantastic time and must say that the staff were very friendly and helpful.
We will definitely be back and recommend it to family and friends. It was exactly what we were looking for. Thanks for a memorable weekend!
