“The Oyster Box hotel is one of South Africa's oldest hotels and today this institution boasts five star hospitality and complete elegance!”

The Oyster Box hotel is one of South Africa’s oldest hotels, located in Umhlanga, twenty minutes north of Durban, KwaZulu-Natal. Today this institution boasts five star hospitality and complete elegance, hard to think that over 150 years ago these grounds were home to a humble cottage named ‘The Oyster Lodge’!

This hotel as we know it today started its ‘facelift’ in 2007 and finished in end of 2009, this new structure has for the most part, been re – built, but does still have a number of the original landmarks intact. This hotel is not just five star elegance, hushed appeal and located on the edge of the warm Indian Ocean, it has made a name for itself and is the talk around town when it comes to experiencing exceptional South African hospitality. This is why we believe this is a great option for a once in a life time local honeymoon experience!

For all the Honeymooners out there, the Oyster Box Hotel offers an intimate and private location for your celebration of a new journey as a perfect union! With a wide choice of luxurious rooms, suites and villas, and a number of special extras to add unforgettable romantic touches to this most magical of occasions such as a complimentary bottle of sparkling wine on arrival, monogrammed gowns, a rose petal turn-down, and breakfast in bed married life will start in the finest style and spirit!

To add to the local honeymoon experience, The Oyster Box offers their internationally awarded spa for your pleasure! They do not offer traditional spa treatments but rather aims to celebrate you are their guest and customise the experience to your needs. What more could you ask for?

Too add to this luxurious treatment, the Oyster Box offers a much talked about ‘high tea extravaganza’.
