Had a conference at Zimbali In Ballito and I was booked at The Capital.I loved the relaxed and inviting atmosphere at every turn at this hotel.My room was spacious with an incredible window seat and gorgeous view of the valley with the sea.In the mornings I heard the gentle lapping of the waves against the coast and was really impressed with my beautiful surroundings.Sleep was wonderful and do come with a massive appetite to the buffet breakfast.They have a custom halaal counter which is really important as a halaal guest at this hotel.Futhermore there is an extensive selection so come hungry!The spa was really fabulous and the ladies so helpful in helping me choose what treatment to have.A few criticism is that they have too few personnel at the spa so they cant accomodate more than that.On my final day I could not have a manicure because 3 of the therapists were busy.For this level of hotel more should be available.2ndly we should be able to give critique about our treatments without the therapist holding the book to our face.My therapist was not very friendly but very stony throughout the massage.She did her job but gave nothing more and having being to many spas this was lacking for me.I could not write this down in the comment book because she was standing right there with the book.Reviews should be anonymous. Otherwise the hospitality was remarkable and exactly what you expect from a 5star resort.

With Zimbali being under new management with The Capital, the standard seems to have dropped in my opinion from what it was back then as Fairmont Zimbali. The quality of the rooms is not good. The toilet in my room was leaking which caused me to have an unsatisfactory stay. And there is a dewy smell within the rooms that is likely to be caused by humidity. Apart from that it is a great hotel with great amenities. It is just a shame that I could not enjoy most of them due to being inconvenienced by the toilet issue in my room.

Bradley and Siya. they really made our stay the best they are the rock star As for the Spa, they need to train the Therapist especially when it comes to the 90 mins treatment. It really spoiled our experience. My fiance was complaining and she really didnt have the value for money. Her Therapist was a lady with a Dlamini surname just that i forgot her name. You guys rock, you really made my engagement a memorable one. The Table set up for my engagement from Bradley and Siya that night was awesome. I would definitely come back soon with my fiaance. I proposed and she said yes. That will always be our second home. YOU GUYS ROCK....

The resort chef Sipho Hubert from stingray pool bar at the Capital Zimbali consistently delivers top-notch cuisine, satisfying me and my wife with delightful flavors and impeccable presentation. Each dish is a testament to their culinary expertise, elevating the dining experience to new heights. Highly recommended for food enthusiasts seeking a memorable gastronomic journey.
