Margate Beach Club
8.8 (16 reviews)

Margate Beach Club ★★★★

📍 5 Duke Rd, Margate North Beach, Margate

"We are a family of 4 and only had a 1 sleeper apartment, with kids sleeping on sleeper couches. Had an absolute blast! On 2nd floor with sea view. Enough amenities to keep teenage kids busy too. Loved it!! Walking distance from beach & restaurants. Close to shops."

First Group la Cote d'Azur
8.8 (9 reviews)

First Group la Cote d'Azur ★★★★

📍 1 Manaba Beach Rd, Manaba Beach, Margate

"We arrived late. It was dark and raining. the time was 7p.m. We asked if there was somewhere in the hotel where we could order a sandwich. We were told that the coffee shop was closed and if we wanted to get something the Spar was up the road. My husband kicked up a fuss and they reluctantly came forward with a menu from the local pizza place. Seeing the coffee shop was only supposed to close at 8 this was a poor show. Accommodation was satisfactory. Serviced only twice a week. Wonderful patio. Have to pay extra for aircon. This timeshare needs to be remember that one goes on holiday to relax. Not to wash dishes after e very meal. Unfortunately couldn't go down to the beach because the rains had washed the walkway away. We went to report this to the management who denied any knowledge of it.. Other than that a pleasant stay. Would we stay there again. No. Better accommodation elsewhere in Natal with service every day. Normal proximity to the beach at normal times is first class"

The Beach Palace Ramsgate

The Beach Palace Ramsgate ★★★★

📍 467 Shad Drive, Margate

"The place was very clean and tidy, the host was very friendly and helpful and made sure we were okay at all times, we also really enjoyed the breakfast, the place was very peaceful and nice views of the ocean. The only issue i have is that the bathroom should have a sliding door for privacy in the suite that i stayed in, i also saw this comment from previous reviews and hope this is done for future guests."

Wailana Lodge ★★★★

📍 436 Ashmead Dr, Margate

"Outstanding service, the owners made my retreat most enjoyable, nothing was too much trouble. The room was spacious, spotless and had crisp bed sheets, excellent sleep quality. Enjoyed the pool and sea view from almost everywhere in the lodge. Delicious, fresh breakfast Convenient location, within walking distance from beach, shops and restaurants An oasis of tranquility to relax away from busy life!"

First Group Margate Sands
7.2 (9 reviews)

First Group Margate Sands ★★★★

📍 10 William O'Connor Dr, Margate

"We visited Margate Sands during the first week of April 2025. Staff support was excellent. The unit itself, unacceptable. The air-conditioning system was broken. The stove plates were not working. The noise levels after 11 p.m. uncontrollably and loud. Won't be back."

Santana Holiday Resort
8.1 (1 reviews)

Santana Holiday Resort ★★★

📍 11 Duke Road, Margate

"Very pleasant stay, well maintained and secure property. The heated pool was a hit with everyone. Perhaps renting out beach towels may be a revenue stream that can be looked at otherwise a very relaxing and affordable vacation. The managing staff were very friendly and helpful - the cleaning staff were a bit morose possibly a result of having to work during this time of year ..."

First Group Costa Smeralda
8.5 (5 reviews)

First Group Costa Smeralda ★★★

📍 Finnes rd, Marine Dr, Margate

"Costa Smeralda has always been a special place for my family, and myself. We’ve been visiting for many years. The resort is ideally situated, in the most perfect and calm area. The facilities at the resort are always on point for beachfront self-catering units. When you arrive at the resort and immediately park your car, you know that the holiday is going to begin. The resort gives the best holiday feeling over the rest. Staff are always friendly and helpful, especially Tracy, Alfred, and Gladness. Unfortunately Kathy is no linger at the resort and has retired. The units at Costa Smeralda have unfortunately deteriorated to the point where upgrades are urgently needed, especially in the kitchens and bathrooms. The units are always neat and clean, and we’ve never had any issues with cleanliness. The security gates at the sliding doors also need to be replaced, as well as some of the furnishings in the lounge. The overall units need a big make over and TLC. Also I know it was due to cost saving, but the dishwashers and washing machines used to make it “THE” self catering units. The views at Costa Smeralda are the some of the best, especially in Units 4,5,6 in the front block. Some of the most beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Bonus for me at Costa is the nice braai on the balcony- braai with a view. The walks on the promenade in-front of the resort are always great, walking along the seaside, and fishing pier all the way to the main beach and restaurants. Costa Smeralda will always remain a go to holiday destination for us, however I prefer having my holidays in some of the resorts that are a bit more upgraded. Costa you will always remain a GEM!"

Margate Beach Club ★★★★
"In the little sleepy town of Margate, this hotel is a hidden gem. The resort looks new with facilities in excellent condition and each room having its own digital butler. Direct beach access and on site Spa. Staff are very friendly and I would definitely recommend this resort."

First Group la Cote d'Azur ★★★★
"The Hotel itself deserves a solid 4. However, due to its location, Margate Town and Beach, I deducted a point. The town is sadly neglected, and the beach is polluted. With that said, the accommodation is very nice. The pool, children's playground, spa, and bar are very good. The rooms could do with some renovation but are still exceptional with a lovely private balcony, including braai."

The Beach Palace Ramsgate ★★★★
"The Beach Palace Ramsgate We were warmly welcomed by Alida, an exceptional individual who made us feel immediately at home. The property is remarkably spacious and offers a plethora of activities, eliminating the need to venture outside. One of the most notable advantages is direct access to the beach, eliminating the inconvenience of driving. My children thoroughly enjoyed the pool and entertainment area, while the gym catered to our family's fitness enthusiasts. This accommodation surpassed our expectations and provided an exceptional experience. The service was truly outstanding, ensuring a memorable and enjoyable stay for my family."
