A Charming Oasis in Durban: The Acorn B&B
Our recent stay at the Acorn B&B in Durban was nothing short of delightful. From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by its old-school charm and the warm, welcoming hospitality of the two lovely hosts. I cannot praise this B&B enough for its unique blend of comfort, friendliness, and convenience. What truly sets this B&B apart, however, is the exceptional hospitality of the hosts. From the moment we arrived until our departure, they went out of their way to make us feel at home. Their genuine friendliness and willingness to assist with any request made our stay memorable. We even had the pleasure of sitting down with them for a chat, which felt like catching up with old friends. The location of the Acorn B&B is also worth highlighting. Nestled in a serene and quiet area of Durban, it provided the perfect respite from the bustling city, allowing us to unwind and relax. Yet, it is conveniently situated close to all the attractions and amenities that Durban has to offer. Whether you're looking to explore the vibrant city center, soak up the sun on the beaches, or indulge in local cuisine, everything is just a short drive away. In summary, our stay at the Acorn B&B was an absolute pleasure. If you appreciate old-school charm, impeccable service, and a tranquil oasis in the heart of Durban, I wholeheartedly recommend this B&B. We left with fond memories and a longing to return to this exceptional establishment.
