A favourite destination for local and international holidays, a visit to KwaZulu Natal will often begin in Durban. Arrivals at King Shaka airport are treated to a spectacular fly-by of the inviting Indian Ocean, beautiful beaches, and verdant rolling landscapes. Visitors to Durban choosing one of Southern Sun's hotels have the best hotel choice in the city. Durban’s Golden Mile is famous for its 6km stretch of sand, surf breaks, art-deco architecture, and selection of Southern Sun hotels. From the legendary The Edward hotel to affordable family holidays at Garden Court South Beach, there is a room for every taste and every budget.
A little to the north you’ll discover the coastal resort of uMhlanga. Popular for its laid-back vibe, year-round good weather, the Gateway Theatre of Shopping, and the heritage luxury of the Beverly Hills hotel, uMhlanga is perfect for sunny vacations and getaways. Overlooking the iconic lighthouse and pier, the Beverly Hills spoils guests with its elegant afternoon tea, spa treatments, famous ocean view pool and award-winning dining. uMhlanga is also home to two of South Africa’s most loved beach apartment resorts, Cabana Beach and uMhlanga Sands.
