We take pride in our warm, genuine hospitality with those uniquely personal touches that make our guests feel right at home and part of the family. It’s what keeps families returning to Pumula year after year to create more happy memories!
ICONIC BLUE FLAG BEACH Just a stone’s throw away from your room
Our safe and fully protected beach is a pristine paradise for swimming, surfing, and fishing, with a sparkling tidal pool for the kids to play in. It is one of only 44 beaches in South Africa awarded Blue Flag status, meaning that it’s one of the world’s best beaches when it comes to water quality, environmental management, facilities and safety. It is truly an honour to be situated just 65 steps away from a beach with this renowned status.
HEATED SALT WATER POOLS Year-round swimming, sun and sea
A heated pool and mild climate mean that you get to enjoy a holiday for all seasons. Pumula has a heated salt water pool and toddler pool, making our pool area one of the most popular spots throughout the year. Your little ones can splash about in a safe, controlled (and warm!) environment, while you get to relax comfortably on a sun lounger in the balmy sub-tropical weather.
