Full accommodation information

Nestled between Ballito and Shaka’s Rock on the South African coast, Sala Beach House is a palm studded, sun soaked boutique hideaway. With ‘sala’ meaning ‘stay’ in Zulu, you can be assured that this hidden gem offers a homely, intimate experience complete with stunning views of Dolphin’s Coast.

Feel the sinking sand beneath your feet as you head to Thompson’s Bay, just a short walk from your retreat. This expanse of sea and sky is the heart of your holiday, a space for scenic walks, whale watching, diving, surfing, and the backdrop to long evenings on your patio or terrace.

Inside your idyllic room or suite, you’ll find earthy hues and natural materials teamed together to carry the spirit of the outdoors in. Relax in your king-size bed, modern en suite and spacious living space, all soaked in the bright seaside light. Visit The Sala Spa for a soul-soothing treatment, from massages to pedicures, or join a yoga class on the beach. In the evenings, enjoy delicious cuisine at the villa’s private restaurant, with options to eat in the dining room, courtyard or out on the patio with the sunset.
