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 space is surrounded by trees and bushes and feels very private inside. This is a very flexible garden and is perfect for weddings or civil partnerships.

The gardens are available for hire throughout the year. Hires can be taken on any day of the week and parties can continue until 10pm within the gardens.

Capacity: maximum of 500 for a standing reception or a seated dinner
