KwaZulu Natal’s Dolphin Coast saw the opening of a new luxury boutique hotel, Sala Beach House, this week. 

Sala (meaning “stay” in Zulu) is a privately owned and managed boutique hotel nestled between Ballito and Shaka’s Rock and offers uninterrupted ocean views of the Dolphin Coast, with private beach access to the protected tidal pool and the sheltered swimming beach at Thompson’s Bay. 

The property comprises a main house with four luxury guest rooms, three spacious suites sharing the use of two pools, as well as a separate, self-contained three-bedroom private villa with its own pool. 

Sala’s prime location guarantees “wow” factor as a backdrop to its infinity pool, yoga deck and fire pit. Just twenty minutes from King Shaka International Airport, Sala Beach is positioned as the perfect beach partner for a safari pairing in northern Zululand. 

The Sala Spa offers signature treatments and locally sourced amenities.
