Illovo River Lodge, Illovo Beach, South Coast, KwaZulu Natal, South Africa

Illovo River Lodge is only a short 25 minute drive from Durban so it's our favourite place to go when we need to get away from the city but time is limited (like after work on a Saturday morning). 

The wooden units are very well maintained and there are two bedrooms (with 2 beds pushed together or separate) and two bathrooms (with a bath and a shower) in each one. This makes it perfect for a small family or two couples. 

Beds are comfortable, the kitchen is well equipped, the view is fantastic! Illovo beach is lovely and just a 5 - 7 minute walk through the grounds.


Great features:


* Stunning view

* 2 beds and 2 baths in each unit

* Close enough to Durban to get away to for just one night

* Lovely beach within walking distance


Not so great features:


* The walk to the beach may be a bit tough for the elderly or infirm



Price: Very reasonable

Recommended for: Couples / small families 

Would we go back: Definitely. We have and will again. 

The host/s: The owner is friendly and has been kind enough to allow us a later check-out in the past. It's best to speak to her about this when you make the booking to avoid the awkward conversation of "So when are you leaving?" when you arrive :-)
