The apartment was very much to our needs, well maintained and it was an enjoyable stay - very safe and private. The only issue was dstv which was not working, otherwise very nice.

Dear Pragasan, Thank you for your review. Sorry, we were unaware that the dstv was not working. If you brought it to our attention and we would have resolved it. Regards, 45 The Shades

Second time visiting the place and it never dissapoints. Quiet, clean and secure with a 24 hr security. Everything you need is a walking distance, shops, resturants and most of all the beach. Would not mind to visit again.

The Shades 45 is perfectly located if you want to park your vehicle for your entire holiday. Walking distance from Beach, shops and restaurants. The unit was perfect for us (just big enough for a family of 2 adults and 2 children), very nice and clean swimming pool in Complex. Braai Area and Bins are cleaned daily. Safe with 24 hour security at the gate. Kids could play outside on the lawn till late.

The place is neat and clean I enjoyed my visit. Guards are welcoming at the gate. I didn't ask for anything cause everything was provided. Thanks for the hospitality. My visit was superb. Will definitely recommend the place to friends and family.

The Shades is extremely central to all activities in the Umhlanga area, especially the beach! Everything is basically within walking distance. The unit is extremely clean and well maintained. Aircon and fans throughout, and all amenities provided. Even a view of the sea. Very pleasant stay at very good value for money.
