A national treasure

South Africa’s most cherished hotel stands majestically on Umhlanga’s beachfront, overlooking the Indian Ocean & the iconic lighthouse.

The Oyster Box

Umhlanga Rocks, KwaZulu-Natal

Curry Buffet Background

A timeless icon

Occupying a majestic location on the Umhlanga beachfront in KwaZulu-Natal province, The Oyster Box is one of South Africa’s most celebrated hotels, as famous for its remarkable coastal views as the understated luxury and gracious hospitality that have become the hallmarks of this cherished seaside destination.

Set just 15 minutes’ drive from King Shaka International Airport, The Oyster Box offers an array of individually decorated rooms and suites, an award-winning spa set amid tropical gardens, and a mouth-watering menu of restaurants and bars.

With South Africa’s Covid-19 recovery well underway, we are delighted to once again welcome international travellers back to The Oyster Box.

The Beach Bar

Opening from the 16th April onwards

Our award-winning Beach Bar at The Montague on the Gardens is an unforgettable summer party venue.

We will welcome you with plenty of fun and surprises. Complete with real sand, a beach-hut style thatched roof, delicious cocktails, palm trees and a backdrop of a beautiful beach, you'll feel like you're basking in the Bahamas rather than in the heart of central London. 

Price: Montague burger, chips with three drinks for £29 per person.
