Overview
Rooms with a View was one of the first BnB establishments in the Outer West Suburb of Durban. It is high on the Crest of Crestview and the whole property has magnificent views of Inanda Dam with the Valley of a Thousand Hills as a backdrop. On two sides it adjoins the edge of Crestholme Nature Reserve and View Site (WESSA), a combination of pristine grassland and forest with over 3000 species of plants / trees. We have been operating since 1998 and look forward to continue hosting many more Southern African travellers as well as from the African Continent and overseas.
