Located in Ballito, The Seaglass Bed and Breakfast features panoramic views, luxury rooms and a 82 foot outdoor pool. This contemporary steel and glass home is suspended masterfully between sea and sky, maximizing breath-taking views from the Durban harbor to the Tugela Mouth. The house is designed around a natural bowl which frames the view and orientates the house. As you enter the double volume entrance your eye is drawn across a 82 ft rim flow pool to the sea and sky beyond. The home is a veritable green house and benefits from being largely off the grid.
