“Nestled near the Tugela River mouth, the resort strikes me as a simple, unpretentious getaway focused on the outdoors, especially for those keen on fishing. Cabins offer the basics, and while the beach isn't ideal for swimming, it's perfect for long walks, and the clean pools provide a refreshing alternative; from what I gather, it's a great place for families and anyone looking for a quiet escape from city life.”
