46 guests' feedbackWe had an awesome stay.
We were pleasantly surprised that the apartment was exactly as presented on booking. Everything was professional and the apartment catered for our every need. Crisp and fresh linen and pristinely clean.
We really enjoyed our stay at At 4 Umzumbe, Mangrove Beach Estate. Cleanliness, comfort, assistance with local attractions, engagement with the owner. Hassle free.
Very clean, beautiful apartment. Nice view and close to the beach. We enjoyed our stay very much. Friendly host and caretaker!
I was a relaxed environment and the hosts were pleasant and welcoming.
Lovely place. Beautiful views. My family and I had a great time. Beach and tidal pool were fantastic. We had loads of fun at the pool in the complex as well as at the games room. Lucinda was a superstar, so friendly and helpful.
It was a lovely fully furnished unit with everything you need.
Awesome. Enjoyed home away from home.
We can definitely recommend At 4 Umzumbe, Mangrove Beach Estate to anyone looking for accommodation. The place is breathtaking! Wish we could have stayed longer!
Thank you very much for the hospitality.
When we got there we got the most welcoming stuff not to mention the cleanliness of the house is the best. Will highly recommend it to someone who wants peace and relaxation for the weekend.
Really appreciate the treatment and can't wait to visit again.
We loved everything about At 4 Umzumbe. We spent 3 nights there. The place was spotless and very well-supplied. Our hostess was excellent. The view was lovely and the walk to the beach was easy. The beach is very accessible and the complex is safe. I would have no hesitation in recommending it.
Safe, clean and tidy place to stay with ample space for a group of 6. Beautiful view and best of all was the friendly reception and communication! Lights and WiFi work despite loadshedding!
Even with loadshedding and with watershedding it was absolutely a vacation that my kiddies will remember. We were received kindly and the water situation was explained to us nicely. The apartment was beautiful and the view was lovely. The beach was a stone's throw away. Banana Beach was great. Few people and nice clean. I will definitely go back.
Friendly reception and services. Apartment is clean and comfortable. Location is also excellent!
Very nice apartment. Very clean, very neat and very quiet, except the sounds of the ocean. Highly recommended.
The location is good and we walked to the beach every day. The place is very neat and beautiful with an incredible sea view. The owner is very friendly and helpful. Nothing was ever too much trouble. We will go again for sure.
We had a great stay - everything was exactly as described. The place deserves more than just the 3 stars it currently has. The dishwasher is a winner and helps to relax after a delicious meal. There is ample storage space for groceries and clothes. Nice to not have to live out of a suitcase. Charmaine and Nick are very helpful, from a welcoming and support perspective. We hope to come again in the future. People who come to visit have to help look after the place - it's a gem.
Our holiday was so nice, all thanks to the hospitality of the owner, the beautiful view, nice beach and the stunning accommodation. We felt safe in the complex and the caretaker was there every day. Children could keep themselves busy in the games room, while it gave mum a chance to read a book in peace. It really was an idyllic holiday and we can't wait to go back to At 4 Umzumbe, Mangrove Beach Estate.
It's home away from home. Definitely going back to Mangrove.
Private beach was nice and quiet as we preferred it. We got value for our money. We wanted to experience a quiet getaway and that's what we got. The owner and management were in constant contact with me with water and power outages and repairs were quick. What a beautiful, modern unit.
We enjoyed our stay, it was safe, relaxed and peaceful, looking forward to our next stay.
The apartment is clean, tidy and well equipped with modern furniture. The complex itself is pretty clean and there is clearly an effort made to maintain the gardens, pool and other facilities. Well located near several attractions. Sea view is fantastic! The DVDs for the kids are an unexpected but welcome plus - they keep the kids busy at night before bed.
My mom and I booked a 6 night stay down the South Coast at this gem! The apartment is beautiful, extremely well kitted out and very comfortable. Very clean and in a quiet complex. There is a walkway to the beach. The weather was not great for some of the time but we just enjoyed relaxing indoors or on the patio with the amazing views of the ocean. Lucinda, the owner, and Charmaine, who manages the apartment were extremely friendly and helpful. I will definitely be going back to stay there.
Really loved how accurately the place was advertised. Looked exactly like the pictures and very pleasant. Really helpful staff on site. We had an amazing stay.
What a lovely place to be, keep up the good standards. Expect more visits from us.
The apartment met all our expectations and more! It has a fantastic sea view, and the beach is a lovely safe swimming beach. Between the tidal pool (ideal for snorkelling), and the games room, the children were kept busy for hours. All the facilities were available so we could just enjoy our holiday. Lucinda our hostess, kept us up to date on all happenings, and promptly answered all our queries. Thank you very much Lucinda, we will definitely come and stay there again!
At 4 Umzumbe is a delightful, tastefully furnished, comfortable, safe, noise-free, getaway spot with a lovely sea view.
I would recommend this place to everyone I know. The sea view, the apartment, the entire vacation was blissful.
Neat, modern, well equipped, good beds, nice sea views (bring binoculars for whales, there are plenty).
The accommodation is luxurious and comfortable. All appliances and everything you need is there. Even DStv. The beach is just a short walk away. We had a great stay, except for the one night when the neighbours were noisy. I was not comfortable with the owner's request to pay the full amount even before they gave us the adres. This made me anxious before our holiday even started.
My stay with my team was peaceful, we stayed for 4 nights. The place was neat, well decorated. The view was excellent. The sound of waves in the evening was beautiful. We felt like home away home. Will definitely recommend it to other people.
Lucinda, the best hostess (owner) ever. What a caring person. Thank you very much for the beautiful, luxurious, clean stay. At 4 Umzumbe was great, had a great time on the porch. The view beautiful! Estate very tidy and Armand the manager strict as it should be, but very helpful. Will visit again and recommend. A short walk to the sea, but a lovely, safe, peaceful beach.
Wonderful personal service from Lucinda, thanks.
We had a very nice holiday. The unit is clean, tidy and beautiful. Lucinda goes out of her way and makes you feel very welcome.
Had a very nice holiday.
Have a nice visit at home. Pleasant atmosphere and excellent service.
Will definitely go again, really enjoyed it and everything you need is there.
A stunning apartment which is tastefully decorated with beautiful touches of the beach. Clean and tidy with stunning views of the ocean, and staff and Lucinda are friendly and helpful. It is value for money. We loved our stay at 4 Umzumbe and will definitely come back!
We had an awesome 4 nights spent in this beautiful place, we love cooking and everything was available in the kitchen. Seaview from the balcony was great. Comfortable beds and it was definitely a home away from home. Thank you Lucinda.
We had a very nice stay. The apartment is close to the sea and excellently equipped. The owner is also very helpful. Would definitely recommend it.
Beautiful place. Neat, clean and everything of great quality. Beautiful view of the ocean and bush.
We can recommend this unit with open hearts. -it is furnished with love, durability and creative ideas that binds everything together and gives it a refreshing, peaceful and calm feeling.
We were three generations that stayed in the unit, and we were all very impressed with the effort and decor that the owner did. She also constantly made sure that we were helped, and was very helpful with our needs. We were truly carried on. Thank you very much Lucinda.
Very cute unit, for a small family.
