Review by hotel critic
Staying at Ballito Backpackers was such a delight during my recent city trip. The family room I booked had a private bathroom, which was perfect for our needs, and it was spotlessly clean – you know how much I appreciate a tidy space! The staff, especially a lovely Zimbabwean lady and a friendly Afro guy, were always on hand to assist with anything we needed, which made our stay even more enjoyable. The location couldn't be better – just a quick stroll to local shops, eateries, and the stunning beaches. We spent evenings enjoying the sea breeze on our private wooden balcony, braaiing up tantalizing dinners as the sun dipped below the horizon. With all the amenities you might need, and supportive housekeeping options if you fancy a break, it felt like a home away from home. For those planning a visit, the low rates and vibrant atmosphere are truly a win!
