Little gem
Umzumbe Surf House is a great budget option for a quick, adventurous getaway. The staff are knowledgeable and friendly, the rooms are clean, the view and beaches are spectacular and the atmosphere is fun. Of course, the mood in a backpackers can change depending on who is staying there, but the place just feels welcoming and easy going.
