sea-facing boutique-style accommodation near Anstey’s Beach
Local tip
A front-facing suite is worth requesting for a clearer ocean outlook, with Anstey’s Beach close to the property.

Misty Blue Bed and Breakfast is a sea-facing boutique-style guesthouse on Marine Drive in Ocean View, Bluff, with Anstey’s Beach close by. The property has direct beach access and views across the Indian Ocean, giving the accommodation a distinctly coastal setting while keeping Durban’s city centre, industrial areas and port terminals within easy reach.

The architect-designed property combines a modern, custom-designed interior with artistic details and carefully maintained tropical gardens. The atmosphere is comfortable and residential rather than formal, with a professionally managed full-service approach across the accommodation. Six individually named suites form the guest offering, including Douw, Mani, Hilltop, Anstey’s, Theo and Brighton suites.

Sea views are a defining part of the experience, particularly from the front rooms, while the nearby beach adds an easy outdoor element to a stay. The grounds provide a green setting around the house, balancing the contemporary design with a more relaxed coastal feel. The location also suits travellers who need access to Durban’s working areas, including the port, while retaining a quieter Bluff base.

Breakfast is included in the guesthouse offering and is described as generous, tasty and varied, with something different provided from day to day. The food style is therefore centred on a substantial breakfast rather than a broader restaurant menu. Breakfast service, daily room attention and a responsive hospitality approach contribute to the property’s practical appeal for both short visits and longer stays.

Misty Blue suits leisure travellers looking for sea-facing accommodation near the beach, as well as corporate travellers needing convenient access to Durban’s central and industrial districts. It also works for guests who value a boutique setting, tropical grounds, direct coastal access and a quieter location away from the city centre itself. Reservations can be made directly through the property’s online booking service, with telephone contact also available for enquiries.
