Nothing much, the environment is good, the staff are friendly, facilities are good, the food is good too. What more is there to complain about.
One suggestion is to consider having a child friendly pool section. Something that would look like a jaccuzi. As well as proper family 2 bedroom chalets, maybe with a self catering option.

There is lots of restaurants to choose from.
If you happen to visit the area definitely visit Thompson Beach and take a splash in tidal pool there and cross over through the Hole in the Wall where you can sun bathe the whole afternoon and enjoy the scenery.
Also do visit Lifestyle Centre where you will find The Market for delicious eats from various eateries, my best being Yoli,s and their delicious sweet and savoury treats.

Would totally recommend for romantic getaways.
Would totally recommend for romantic getaways. It is quiet and cosy. I took a drive to Compensation Beach (very beautiful views and restaurants around there) then drove to Zimbali and got to spend half my day at Zimbali Beach Lodge. Then headed to Umhlanga Rocks which was 30 minutes away. It's also not far from the airport and Sibaya Casino. There are shopping centers and pubs that are easily accessible.

Ballito is currently the best place to visit if you are looking to go to the beach in South Africa. There are plenty of different beaches with different vibes and it is really safe and pleasant. Depending on the season it is also very peaceful. Really enjoyed my recent stay and will recommend it to anyone. There are also plenty of activities around Ballito, so you will never be board. I will recommend Thompson Bay Beach and the Hole in the wall and of course you have to try the Adventure Zip Line which is just 20 minutes away from Main Ballito.

The place is a must see gem, and requires a lot of appreciation and care on the side of visitors. It really exceeded my expectations.
The host is one in a million for his kindness and caring, as he goes an extra mile to make sure thay your stay is memorable.
The house manager is very friendly and easy to communicate with.
Everything you need as a visitor is around you, shops, restaurants, beaches, spas, view, gym, etc. The place is superb.

Ballito is the best destination for a family beach holiday.
Ballito is the best destination for a family beach holiday. Awesome weather the last week of June. Clean beaches. Great place for long walks or going for a run or relaxing on a bench to watch the sun rise. Lifestyle Centre was my favourite place to have a cup of coffee.
The location - right on the beach - is fantastic.
If perhaps a little outdated, this can be forgiven for the hotel’s old colonial style feeling with beautiful plants and decorations.
Regarding the breakfast one is spoilt for choice, it couldn’t get much better. As was the dinner we had in the restaurant. Top notch.
The staff are all super friendly, attentive and professional.
The hotel was in a great location, room was clean and bed very comfortable.
Gabby and Christine were amazing hosts and will book again just to experience their wonderful service. Nothing was too hard and they always had a smile on their face.
If I visit Durban again, this is the place I will be staying.
THE VIEW WAS SPECTACULAR, ACCESS TO THE BEACH VERY NICE, THE BEACH AND PATH ON THE BEACHFRONT VERY NEAT AND CLEAN. WE FELT SO SAFE GOING FOR STROLLS. THE HOTEL SURPRIZES US WITH A PIECE OF CAKE IN OUR ROOM TO CELEBRATE OUR ANNIVERSARY
The lady was very generous and helpful and allowed us to leave our bags at the Hotel before checking in so that we could go to the beach. The location was great. It's really close to the beach. The breakfast was also good.
So lovely and very tastefully interiored, location also ideal. Really loved that we were allowed to access all pools, play areas, hotel and restaurants that Zimbali offers!
