AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COSTS! My experience with Eight Palms Guest House was absolutely appalling. Racist, rude, and disgraceful! Due to unforeseen flight delays, I informed Camien of my late arrival (22:17 ETA at the guesthouse) while driving alone at night from Durban, as I was to attend a funeral the following day. She misunderstood me to be saying I’m leaving Durban at 22:17, which was strange as the message was quite clear. Instead of responding with care or seeking clarification, she immediately turned hostile and rude. It didn’t stop there—she started calling me names, cursing at me, and making an already stressful situation unbearable.

You’ve been warned—this place is run by a hateful person who doesn’t deserve...
Read moreFrom my first phone call to make our booking to checkout my experience with Eight Palms was amazing. Camien was very accommodating towards us as we had a third visitor with us. She truly went out or her way and was even checking on us as we were driving there. You really cant get better service than that and I am in the industry. I take my hat of to you for your outstanding service. Room is fully equipped and attention to detail for sure. Small things like a water bottle each on arrival and the list continue. Camien also surprised us with a wonderful dessert on Christmas day as well and it was amazing! Great place to visit and close...
