Belaire Suites Hotel Shuttles

Along Durban’s famous Snell Parade, the upscale but affordable Belaire Suites Hotel is a luxury option for all types. Each room offers colonial-inspired accents like parquet floors and recessed ceilings, with other in-room perks including a microwave, mini-fridge and spacious desk. Upgraded suites add an apartment-style layout fully stocked with a kitchenette and living area, not to mention exclusive views of the sea. On-site amenities are also available to each guest and include a free English buffet as well as complimentary Wi-Fi, not to mention 24-hour security that adds a bit of safety to the premises. Shuttles to King Shaka International also make things simple through easy drop offs, although without secure public transportation, private vehicle rentals are necessary in Durban - choose from a handful of simple choices that include intimate sedans and family-friendly SUVs, not to mention meet-and-greet services ranging from limousines ideal for arriving to events at the nearby Olive Convention Center, and local personal drivers perfect for understanding the native perspective.

Get through the region with ease by waltzing across the sandy shores of Durban Beach, located across from the hotel and offering quiet views of the Indian Ocean. Also close are a handful of kitschy attractions such as Mini Town, home to a miniature train that winds through various mock cities as well as a wide variety of iconic attractions re-sized, and connected to these attractions are the various gardens, gazebos and cobblestone paths of Hanging Gardens. And for an easy way to unwind, look forward to a few minutes of ice skating at the Durban Ice Arena, then considering a night of light gambling at the Suncoast Casino - the art deco-themed gaming hall offers a wide variety of restaurants, shopping and local music perfect for spending the rest of the afternoon. For something much quieter, drive to the northern neighborhood of Beachwood for easy access to the Japanese Gardens’ lily ponds and water-lined walkways.
