“De Charmoy Riverside balances a quiet suburban setting with surprising proximity to Durban's bustling beaches and casino, even uMhlanga Rocks is within easy reach. Rooms are dependably clean, with welcome extras like Netflix, something not always found in guesthouses at this price. I appreciate the blend of value and a host who clearly prioritizes a personal touch.”
