SolSands Hotel & Self Catering

SolSands Hotel & Self Catering is an apartment-style accommodation property on Erskine Terrace in the Point area of Durban. The setting places the property beside the beachfront and close to uShaka Marine World, with the Golden Mile, the pier and other coastal attractions within easy reach. The location suits travellers seeking a practical base for seaside activities, family outings and access to Durban’s waterfront.

The property offers self-catering apartments in several layouts, including standard and family options with side-facing, partial side-facing, front-facing or skyline sea views. Accommodation is arranged for both shorter stays and longer visits, with room configurations that include double beds, sofa beds and family sleeping areas. The different outlooks provide a choice between views towards the sea and views over the uShaka pier.

Each listed apartment includes a fully equipped kitchen, supporting independent meal preparation rather than a restaurant-led stay. This format suits guests who prefer flexibility around mealtimes, families managing different schedules and travellers looking for the convenience of apartment living. The lounges include air-conditioning and a television with DStv, providing a straightforward indoor setting for relaxing between outings.

The atmosphere is relaxed and residential, with the sea-facing position adding a coastal character to the accommodation. A front-facing family apartment offers a direct sea outlook, while the skyline option looks towards the uShaka pier. Standard apartments provide a double bed, an en-suite shower and lounge sleeping space, making the range suitable for couples as well as small family groups, subject to the selected apartment layout.

uShaka Marine World is positioned next to the property, giving guests convenient access to its aquarium, shows and water-based activities. Funworld Durban, the Amphitheatre Gardens, Mini Town, Joe Cools and the Moses Mabhida Stadium are among the other nearby attractions listed by the property. Further options include the Royal Durban Golf Club, Wilsons Wharf, Suncoast Casino, Umgeni River Bird Park, Mitchell Park Zoo, the KZN Sharks Board, Gateway Theatre of Shopping and the MSC Cruise Terminal.

SolSands Hotel & Self Catering suits visitors who value a central coastal location, in-room cooking facilities and apartment layouts with sea views. It is particularly well matched to families, couples and travellers planning to spend time around the Point Waterfront, beachfront and uShaka precinct.
