- Yolandi (4/5): Dissapointing - Not much The place could be clean. Bluff area is an absolute disaster. Stay away from this area.
- Jessica (10/5): It worth our choice. Friendly staff, beautiful, clean and lovely place. - The room is beautifully spacious and has an amazing seaview. We loved the pool area and the easy way to the beach. The shower temperature is not steady it goes cold and hot by itself, we were constantly adjusting.
- Phelokazi (10/5): Great - The view is amazing Clean and spacious
- BiancaIves (10/5): -
- Themba (10/5): -
- fabrice (4/5): - L’hôte a été très sympathique et la vue sur la mer. Pas au niveau des prestations attendus, ni en terme de chambre (isolation, literie médiocre,, aspect général très vieillot), l'accès mer est ok mais on parle de "plage privée" ce qui est faux. Pas d'ambiance et petit déjeuner moyen.
- Hasley (9/5): It is a perfect place for a working person as it quiet, far from the noise - It is clean and safe The construction by the gate.
- Tebogo (10/5): I went to Durban to visit a friend but I ended up enjoying being at misty blue instead hahahaha - I liked everything about the place, the location, how clean it is, the private beach yeah everything I didn’t like the fact that I had to leave
- Karl (7/5): - Tolles Frühstück, direkt am Meer
- Jeanine (9/5): Great location with easy beach access for stroll before breakfast. Lovely hosts - Friendly host. Close to beach for quick stroll. Maintenance in progress on driveway making it little hard to access
- Martin David (10/5): - Very welcoming Nothing
- Christene (10/5): Stunning place with breathtaking views - Everything. Its a gorgeous place with an incredible host
- Byron (10/5): -
- duduzile skhosana (9/5): -
- Yolandi (4/5): Dirty, outdated and dilapidated - The hosts were friendly and helpful. Extremely dirty and uncomfortable. The pillows were rock hard and filled with something from another planet. The whole property was dirty, run down and in need of a desperate renovation.
- Helgaard (9/5): -
- khumo (9/5): -
- Ford (10/5): A MUST stay!!! For the room, the VIEW and scrumptious BREAKFAST!! - Beautiful grounds! Beautiful private beach Our room looked out to the ocean! Lovely comfortable room with comfy bed and lovely big bathroom and shower The breakfast was to die for!!!
- Molebogeng (10/5): Stunning beautiful stay - The place is stunning and the sea view was breathtaking! The place is so beautiful. My husband and I really enjoyed it so much! The breakfast was so delicious and served on time. All the staff members were very friendly and helpful! Nothing at all!
- Bongile (8/5): Very good -
- Brandon (1/5): Bad - The pictures It was in South Africa
- Scott (7/5): Good -
- Nokuthula (6/5): Pleasant -
- Dakalo (4/5): The room was good but maybe if they kept the animals away. - The rooms were okay and the location was good. They did not mention having pets in the location, the dog and cat was everywhere and their smell was not pleasant. We couldn’t eat breakfast there because of the unpleasant smell from the animals.
- Leon (10/5): Exceptional - Very friendly staff. Breakfast was excellent 👌
- Talc (6/5): Pleasant -
- Luyanda (10/5): Exceptional -
- Saaid (10/5): Lovely place to relax and de-stress. Make mine Misty Blue! - James the host was flexible and helpful. He bent the rules when we needed him to. The rest of the staff was warm and friendly. All round just a very good relaxing stay. The Dog (Misty) and the cat(Morgie) add character to the pleasant atmosphere. We didn't come with our own car so we had to to walk to the convenience store. The area Bluff is generally far from the malls and halal restaurants and takeouts and we had appointments closer to Umhlanga and Phoenix, but that doesn't count against Misty Blue B&B at all. I'd recommend anyone to the guesthouse at any time during the year.
- Londa (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lenal (9/5): Superb -
- Ronald (9/5): Superb -

- Kweyama (9/5): Superb -
- Aleida (10/5): Warm and welcoming - we had a wonderful stay at Misty Blue’s! - Misty Blue Bed and Breakfast is in a prime location overlooking Ansteys Beach… we had a beautiful beach view from our bedroom and as an extra bonus you had access to the beach via the garden… we were fortunate enough to see a few whales passing by! The house is beautifully decorated, clean and spacious. James the owner, Marinda and the rest of the staff were wonderful, they were warm and friendly and made us feel right at home - they accommodated our every request. They were knowledgeable about the area, gave us advice and suggestions. All in all, we had a wonderful stay! 10/10! - top notch service James! 👌
- Hooghiemstra (10/5): Exceptional -
- Julia (6/5): Pleasant - The staff were lovely, the room was spacious with a very comfortable bed. Broken door handle. Kettle not cleaned on the outside. Blinds and ceiling fans dusty. Seal on the shower door needs attention. My remote for the gate didn't work.
- Nontle (1/5): It was a very uncomfortable stay due to the lady who works there who looked like she was monitoring - I liked the beach view. I didn't like their service, there's a lady who works there who didn't even introduce herself. She told she looks after the place but in all honesty she's not friendly at all. She was mean and went as far as knocking at hour door whilst I was bathing and my partner was lying down in bed. She knocked even though she knew we were in the room. Another thing is there's a dog that would join you during breakfast while you eat. I picked up that the lady treated us differently because we're black I saw her treating our white inmates with respect yet with us she fell agitated all the time. She made us feel uncomfortable and made us to even forget what we went there for. The breakfast was a simple egg and beacon
- Sphem01 (8/5): Very good -
- Rhys (7/5): Good -
- Andre (10/5): We were upgraded by James our host to room 1 so thank you for that we loved that the room had all the right things , lov - We loved the quietness and natural bits of property like the birds sanctuary and the sound of the ocean.we loved that we could just sit in the gardens and connect with nature.We also loved its proximity to everything Maybe the breakfast offering could be tweaked a little although it was good
- Nipun (10/5): Exceptional - The place is huge and has lots of facilities. It also has a path to a private beach. James who is the host is very helpful, accommodating and friendly. Thanks to the caretakers as well. I would rate the experience as 5 out of 5.

- Sean (6/5): Pleasant -
- Sean (8/5): Very good -
- Christo (8/5): Very good - Clean, good breakfeast Parking is a problem, i had room two, a small double bed, a workshop that is unpracticale, and there are no plugs to use. When you sit on the couch, you can see tv. The shower is an extremely small space in a bath, and the toilet is that you lotterly have to sit in the center because it is squeezed in a corner. The security lght on the outsie of the room shine streight into the room. Wifi does not work in room 2, although the owners said they are going to fix it.

- Bongani (10/5): Exceptional -
- Chrizelda (10/5): Exceptional -
- Nicole (10/5): excellent stay, will definitely use again - place was clean and very nice nothing
- Dave (6/5): Could have been good, but wasn't - The room is comfortable, air-conditioning works well and there is a tea/coffee station. Nice bathroom and plenty of fresh towels. I didn't enjoy the cigarette smoke wafting through my bedroom window or door every morning. Parking was an issue as there was a private function being held on day one, and when I left on day two I had been parked in and battled to leave. I also asked that my room not be serviced (for covid), and placed the sign on the door, and yet someone still went in and serviced.
- Holdcroft (8/5): Absolutely loved our stay - thank you to James and staff who made us feel right at home. - The location was awesome, James and his team were absolutely fantastic amd the breakfasts were good. We will definitely be back. Little bit of maintenance needed on wooden counter tops and cupboards in bedroom.
- Rirhandzu (10/5): Exceptional - Loved this place to bits, tranquil, and very refreshing.. the view is to die for, with the bonus of falling asleep to the sound of the ocean. Friendly staff and the place is extremely clean. I enjoyed the beach walks and braai area the most! Definitely worth revisiting.. Great value for money

- Karin (10/5): What a gem on the beach!!! - Extraordinary beautiful house with stunning beach view! We saw dolphins from our bed! You walk directly on the beach from the garden, the pool is so nice and monkeys say hello too!
