If you want to do something exhilarating and bucket-list worthy, this flight down to coast to Port St John’s from Durban is your answer. Leave Virginia airport early morning after a hot cafe and homemade rusk; land an hour later on top of a cliff above the majestic Umzimvubu river in Port St John’s to a glass of bubbly and a wee snack. 🥂 Head down to a welcoming, hearty breakfast at Umngazi by hotel shuttle 45 mins later. Not many places on earth still this unspoilt. And if you’re a whale or dolphin fan, flying down in May-August means oodles of spotting from the plane! 🐳 🐬

**Press Release: Reassurance Following Recent Incident**

The Umngazi family and team are immensely relieved and grateful for the safe return of Alize Van Der Merwe, who was rescued safely yesterday after having been kidnapped in Mthatha on Friday. We have been deeply shaken by this unfortunate event, and our thoughts remain with her and her family during this time of healing.

We extend our sincere gratitude to the dedicated task forces, including Andre Snyman (eblockwatch), Serentinel, the HAWKS and SAPS, whose tireless efforts and coordination with our team and other networks led to her safe recovery. The community and our staff have shown incredible resilience and solidarity throughout this challenging week, and will continue to work together to ensure that justice is served.

The well-being of our guests is, and always will be, our top priority. We continue to collaborate closely with law enforcement and other relevant authorities to enhance the security of our premises and ensure a safe environment for all who visit Umngazi. It’s paramount that Umngazi continues to broaden its network of security which was instrumental in resolving this awful ordeal.

This unique and precious destination on the Wild Coast remains a sanctuary for both our guests and the community it supports. We look forward to welcoming you with the warm and genuine hospitality that defines Umngazi. Together, we will rise above this, standing strong as ever.

Thank you for your continued support.

Wishing you all a peaceful weekend.

♥️Team Umngazi

Have you flown to Umngazi before? It’s got to be

Have you flown to Umngazi before? It’s got to be one of the most scenic routes anywhere on the planet. Our Cessna Caravan (turbo-prop plane with 2 pilots - for those afraid of small planes - this is THE reliable kind - ask Google) flies each Friday from Virginia airport in Durban straight to Port St Johns airfield which in itself is an adventure. For those of you who feel like a week escape without the kids to reset and unwind - consider booking at Emlonyeni - our exclusive section of the hotel for adults only - a sort of quiet sanctuary near the river mouth with its own dining room for breakfast. And close to the Spa. Paradise beyond.

Sure, getting to the hotel might involve a flight and/or a long road trip through the Wild Coast, but every minute is worth it.

According to Piet Geldenhuys and his family, once you arrive, you’ll know why this hidden gem near Port St. Johns is so coveted. From the breathtaking views to the unforgettable experiences, Umngazi turned every ounce of effort into a lifetime of memories for their family.

And trust us, the hardest part will be saying goodbye—just ask the guests who didn’t want to leave! 🌅
