External Review's Review of DEMO HOTEL UMHLANGA

Back to DEMO HOTEL UMHLANGA
1 Would you recommend us to others?

Overall, the resort was fantastic and I'd highly recommend considering it. Heritage Awali, Sugar Beach, and Trou Aux Biches are also highly recommended.

2 How would you rate your overall stay and our facilities and amenities?

TRIPADVISOR - Andrew Schär - 25 Jun 2019 - - - Incredible staff and a beautiful resort - - - The resort itself is beautiful. There are palm trees everywhere and the structure and facilities are top-notch. We went on the all-inclusive package (which I'd highly recommend) and the food and drinks were fantastic. What I also loved about this resort was that it catered to both couples and families with kids, without ever being overly focussed on kids like Club Med etc. We had our 3-year-old and our 1-year-old with us and the play centre was great. So definitely don't be put off by this resort if you're anti-kids - you'll hardly notice them as it's a big resort. In terms of the beach, it's not the biggest, the water isn't the bluest, and there are plenty of stones in the water. That said, it didn't bother us really - it was more of an observation compared to our previous stay at Trou Aux Biches which has an incredible beach (though also not the bluest water). The spa was great too, though at Rs3200 it's more than double what we'd pay for a spa treatment in South Africa. The free water-sports was great and you can paddle up the river if you like.

3 How did our team look after you during your stay with us?

The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive. That is the stand out feature for me. They will stop at nothing to make your stay the absolute best it could possibly be.

4 How would you rate our rooms? (if applicable)

The accommodation was also really great. We had a family suite which was super close to the pools and the sea. The only negative for me was that the bathroom and toilet didn't have windows - a small thing, but I would have preferred windows.

5 How would you rate our food and beverages?

We ate 80% of our meals at the main buffet restaurant (Mozaik) because it was easier for the kids, but we did go to Madam Ming one evening at it was really good!
