Sea Views

The ocean finds you
in every room

The master bedroom opens directly onto a private verandah facing the sea. The TV lounge has a picture window that frames the water. At the kitchen hob, you are looking at the Indian Ocean.

Evenings at Kingfisher Cove bring the lights of Umdloti along the bay and the sound of waves drifting in from the garden. It is the kind of setting that makes a week feel longer than it is.

  • Sea views from the lounge, kitchen and master suite
  • Master suite with direct verandah access
  • Covered wrap-around patio and outdoor lounge
  • Air conditioning throughout
The Pool

Poolside days,
sea-breeze evenings
