Best Getaways 
Crooked Tree Cottage
Crooked Tree is perfectly positioned near some of the finest beaches along Durban's north coast, where the inviting warmth of the Indian Ocean allows for swimming throughout the year. The property boasts a lush garden and a sparkling swimming pool, offering a quiet retreat. Nestled in the upscale area of Umhlanga on the KwaZulu-Natal coast, the accommodation includes a charming three-room cottage and three studio suites. These are primarily available as bed and breakfast options for most of the year, yet they are ideally suited for those who prefer a self-catering holiday experience. The cottage comfortably accommodates 6 to 7 guests, while the studio units are perfect for two people sharing. Room 4 is particularly versatile, accommodating up to two adults and two small children.
