if you have not been to the haven then you don't know what you are missing. Cant wait till my next stay, well done Glen, Sue and your caring staff. Keep up the great work! Regards, Philip and Liesel
The Haven is a great spot to stay a few days. I would recommend at least three as the drive to the Haven is a bit long. It was a perfect stopover for us from PE to Durban and we really enjoyed the tranquility and scenery.
We took the 4x4 trail through the reserve to Breezy Point, which made the road into the Haven look like a beautifully paved road, but my husband loved the drive, which I felt I could have walked faster.
The horseback riding along the beach was amazing and I really felt safe with our guide.
The walks along the beach were wonderfully lonely and we were usually the only ones on the beach, with the exception of the cows.
We spotted a giant mangrove crab that kept us entertained and we loved the view from our room.
The food was great and filling. we liked our adjoining room that allowed us to be next to our younger children.
Thanks for the wonderful stay!
It was great! Thanks.
Very good location but you need to drive at the end on dirty roads. Many activities are proposed, functional rooms. Very good breakfast, lunch and dinner. The children enjoyed horsing along the beach. Many tracks for hiking. The staff was very nice.
The Haven Hotel is set in a gorgeous location, but it is an adventure to get there! The road going in is quite poorly maintained, but despite this it was passable in our 2wd sedan and was worth the trek in - and we only stayed a single night! The beach is lovely and virtually empty, and there are a few good trails in the forest around the hotel. Wish we could have stayed longer!
