Ina and Eugene
Hillside Guesthouse is a luxury guesthouse conveniently situated in the heart of the upmarket suburb of Umhlanga Rocks, minutes walking distance away from the beach (300 meters) and the vibrant Umhlanga Village (700 meters) but far enough away to have the benefit of peace and quiet after a long day at the beach or in the office. Hillside Guesthouse is owner-run by Ina and Eugene and is ideally suited for discerning business and leisure travellers who can look forward to a warm welcome, superb hospitality and a home away from home. Combining style and warmth with generous hospitality and personal service. The communal lounge opens onto a large covered patio with sea views where you can either relax on your own, or with a visitor, or socialise with other guests. We also have communal barbeque / braai facilities at the plunge pool. Hillside Guesthouse is situated in the heart of Umhlanga Rocks, Kwa Zulu Natal, South Africa, within walking distance to the many fine restaurants, pubs and shops. The world famous Umhlanga beach and promenade is a five minute walk away. We are in a residential neibourhood so no loud music, no parties and no big group bookings allowed.
We have been in the Guesthouse business for 10 years and this is our second Guesthouse. We feel that we understand the needs of our guests. So why stay at Hillside Guesthouse? 1. Location, Location, Location. 2. Newly built, completed in November 2018. 3. Comfortable, luxury accommodation. 4. Sea views 5. Short walk to Beach and Restaurants. 6. Owner run.
We are 300 meters from the beach and 700 meters from the buzzing Umhlanga village which is where people want to be.
