Umkomaas Lodge

This is more than just a place to stay...for all the divers - it's like a liveaboard on land<3 you lay in bed enjoying the sound and smell of the ocean <3 🌊 in the morning 🌄 sunrise on the beach just in front of your window....the location is perfect as it's just a step to the beach and all restaurants, shops and dive centers are nearby, no big walking distance... once you leave for some great dives at Aliwal or whatever you are up to, you'll come back to a proper nicely cleaned room, fresh water in the fridge and some instant coffee ready for the next morning (: and the restaurant next door (open from 8 to late :D ) has delicious (local) food and drinks for very fair prices and lovely people serving...all in all absolutely recommending this beautiful place on this lovely spot<3 peopel are not just kind because of hospitality, they really care and this place is full of good moments and good souls <3 thanks for this wonderful experience and will be back very soon for sure <3

Great place to stay! We stayed here for 3 days. Its right on the sea with a beautiful view. The staff is so friendly and helpful. There is a great little restaurant and bar just downstairs with fantastic food. The room was clean peaceful and comfortable. I’ll definitely come stay here again.

An incredible, unforgettable, mind shifting experience!! ||The staff are very friendly, informative and professional. We felt safe and had a wonderful time, despite choppy seas and an adrenaline fueled dinghy trip out to the dive site. ||Highly recommended!||||My only complaint is that my husband and I had leaky snorkels which meant swallowing mouthfuls of salty sea water and not being able to really enjoy the snorkelling part of the experience. I do think such equipment needs to be checked regularly as well.

Room was below standard for the price paid. the shower was shocking, after 15 minutes in the shower you are hardly clean, there are no towel rails to hang up towels and the pipes shriek all night so you cant sleep. The kitchen cupboards smell so bad you want to vomit every time you open them and you are expected to put your food in there!! It’s advertised with a kitchen on booking.com but there are no cooking facilities. The wifi doesn't work and you told to go up the stairs to see if you can get signal! The plugs are a health and safety risk to say the least! Very very disappointed indeed!

Really delicious and well priced breakfast. Great views. Good service.

Absolutely amazing!! The host ia very helpful and friendly. Its right on the beach and central to everything you need. If I could give 10 stars I would. We will definitely be back.

I booked for a simple bunk bed and they upgrade it straight away, the host is really helpful and kind, I totally recommend it ✌
