Sparkling Star Guest House is in Glenwood, Durban. Ideal for guests looking for comfortable lodging, close to the university and other facilities. Accommodation comprises 5 bedrooms, which are uniquely decorated.
Blending the graciousness, elegance and spaciousness of colonial Durban with all the amenities of modern life, Bali on the Ridge Bed and Breakfast is an elegant, olde-worlde style home completely renovated and decorated in contemporary furniture.
I will recommend the SA Places website to anyone as there accommodation is of 5 star standard. Being a travel agent I was pleasantly surprized as it is real value for money.
