About the host

Your host

Host profile image
My husband and I love hosting at The Beaches. Meeting new people is one of our favorite things, and we aim to make guests feel welcome and relaxed—always available to help while respecting your privacy. Rastus and Maggie (the two resident dogs) are a delight, whether on beach walks, playing fetch, or just quietly sniffing around the garden.

Why they chose this property

Tweni is an amazing area—quiet, relaxed, and full of natural beauty. Walking through the neighborhood, you can enjoy the typical KZN landscape with lush greenery everywhere. The beach is literally at our back door—something guests love. The views of the sea from the two cottages are incredibly beautiful, and many guests say that falling asleep to the sound of the ocean is very relaxing.

What makes this property unique

We offer direct access to the beach, which is rare on the South Coast, as most places require crossing a busy road or a railroad track. The views from our two lookout benches are spectacular—one is perfect for watching morning sunrises, and the other for enjoying sunsets with a cold beer, hot coffee, or whatever you love. At night you can sit there too and watch the waves and the stars. It's magnificent.
