Good value for you money, with excellent host and peaceful surroundings.

What a wonderful, peaceful place to stay. Very relaxing, clean and near shopping and access roads to Durban and Pietermaritzburg and with friendly service and help with anything from our host.

Individual traveler

Perfect hide away.

Beautifully appointed room with the most friendly and accommodating host you can imagine. It is centrally located to the city but secluded and quiet enough that you don't even realize you are actually in a city. Very relaxing atmosphere about the whole place. Lia is worth her weight in gold!

Rustige atmosfeer in stil buurt, maar tog naby aan vele attraksies.

Ons het die verblyf baie geniet en die ontbyt was uit die boonste rakke. Baie dankie vir die ekstra moeite met die uitdruk van papierwerk.

Ben D
Family with teenagers

A truly wonderful experience with friendly and helpful people. We shall visit them again!

We enjoyed our stay immensely! Lia and Gary were very helpful and supporting. The beds were made every morning and the place were cleaned. Parking was safe and all appliances were in working condition. Thank you for everything!

Rikus C

Voel soos jou eie plek.

Lia het ons met ope arms ontvang. Ek het in my lewe nog nie sulke gasvrye mense teëgekom soos by Riverside nie. Baie dankie vir die goeie ervaring.

Lovely!

Lovely accommodation in a quiet and secure neighbourhood. Like home-from home! Lia is very friendly and helpful. Can definitely recommend.

Paula P

Awesome.

Thank you Lia. Wow, what a beautiful place. You have gone beyond our expectations. Thank you for all the help and an amazing breakfast. 5 stars for the lodge. May you grow from success to success. I'll be back.

Waarde vir geld.

Die foto's laat dit baie groter en luukser lyk as wat dit is. Maar die kamer was baie skoon, bed was baie gemaklik. Het baie veilig gevoel. Ontbyt was oor en oor waarde vir geld. Vir die prys is dit werklik waarde vir geld.

Katrien K

Waarde vir geld en uitsekende diens.

Lia was bereid om vir my tot na 22:00 te wag die Sondag. Baie moeite met ontbyt gedoen. Netjiese, skoon kamers. Baie veilig.

Joslin S

Aangenaam.

Was very neat and the owner very friendly and accommodating.

Refilwe L

Lovely people.

The people were lovely and the place was clean. I would definitely go there again.

Paul D
With spouse/partner

Very friendly service.

Relaxing area with access control and behind gates. Beautiful pool and garden. Very friendly reception from Lia with her welcoming smile. Soft but ferm mattress, great night's sleep. Delicious English Breakfast with tasty freshly-baked muffins in the morning. I can really recommend this guesthouse.

Baie vriendelike diens.

Rustige omgewing met toegang beheer en agter veiligheidshekke. Pragtige swembad en tuin. Baie vriendelik ontvang deur Lia met haar innemende glimlag. Bed met sagte dog ferm matras het baie lekker geslaap. Het heerlike Engelse ontbyt met geurige warm vars gebakte muffins die oggend geniet. Kan gastehuis aanbeveel.

Epic and fantastic.

Location on point, 16 minutes away from the most wanna be places, gateway mall, Ushaka Marine World, within 6 minutes to Blue Lagoon beach. Moses Mabida stadium close by, clean, neat and very relaxing, quite and very safe which gives you peace of mind. Friendly owner Lia will make you feel at home.

It was really great to stay there.

Lia was so helpful and makes you really feel at home. I travel a lot for business and sleep in guesthouses - according to me Riverside de Charmoy Guesthouse is one of the best I have ever stayed at. Highly recommended.

Dit was regtig 'n plesier gewees om daar oor te bly.

Lia was so behulpsaam en laat mens regtig tuis voel. Ek reis baie vir sake en slaap gereeld in gastehuise oor en moet sê volgens my is Riverside de Charmoy Gaste Huis een van die bestes waar ek nog oorgebly het. Sal hom met graagte aanbeveel.

We were two couples who stayed at the 2 bed apartment. The privacy and peacefulness was exactly what we wanted, we had an amazing time and looking forward to booking again soon. Lia was always there on call to assist with anything.

Excellent family holiday accommodation.

Lia was very welcoming and helpful from confirmation of booking. Her first mail of welcome set the tone and her willingness to wait up for us until we arrived, in the 'wee hours of the morning of Saturday, showed she was prepared to 'walk the extra mile' for us. The accommodation was just what we needed; tasteful and understated but providing for all our needs. The attention we received was adequate and honest, not contrived nor over the top and never patronizing. As much as we love to hear the sound of the sea when we sleep, we' d much rather be ...

Pragtige gastehuis met uitstekende kliëntediens!

Lia was baie gasvry en ontbyt was baie lekker. Ons het vervoer nodig gehad en sy kon vinnig daarmee ook help. Die gastehuis het 'n lekker rustige atmosfeer. Ons sal definitief weer tuisgaan daar en sal dit beslis aanbeveel.

Shanine M

A very enjoyable stay, clean, safe and comfortable.

Thanks Lia, we had a great stay. Close to our venue where we needed to be every morning. Convenient. Our self-catering unit was cleaned daily, even the Sunday! I would definitely recommend your establishment. See you next year!

We had a great time

Lia and the family gave us a warm welcome and the staff were friendly and very helpful. The rooms were spacious, neat and clean.

Skoon, gerieflik en lekker sentraal en naby die stadion vir rugby.

Kan die plekkie enige tyd aanbeveel. Het alles wat jy nodig het en die personeel is vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Die veiligheid is ook eersteklas. Dit was reeds ons tweede oorslaap daar.

Gert L
With spouse/partner

Die oornaggeriewe is goed. Ontbyt was egter 'n teleurstelling.

'n Rustig en veilige area. Die fasilitiete is baie netjies en skoon. Die koffie in die kamer was teleurstellend. Ontbyt was min en koud. Ek het gesukkel om toegang tot die perseel te kry. Parkering is nie geskik vir groot voertuie nie.

Baie lekker gebly!

Dit was "great", baie moeite is gedoen, en vriendelike en goeie diens is ontvang! Sal verseker weer daar tuisgaan!
