Umkomaas is a mecca for scuba divers and water sports enthusiasts alike. The main diving area is Aliwal Shoal and is rated consistently as one of the top ten diving sites in the world. Agulhas House is centrally located in the centre of Umkomaas. Once you have arrived you park your car, kick back and relax.
From Agulhas House you have a short walk to the beach, dive centres, shops, restaurants, bars and Umkomaas Golf Course (another four within 15mins drive). Nothing is more than 5 minutes away.
We also have our own dive centre on site which is fully equipped with state of the art dive boats, equipment, compressors and experienced staff.
The property is set back from the road in tranquil grounds with secure parking. The guesthouse has been creatively architected from an old doctors clinic.
We have tranquil grounds, the creatively renovated building offers 11 en-suite rooms (twin and double) and 2 en-suite family room, all finished to a high quality standard. All rooms have their own entrance from the main entrance hallway, 6 of which have private patio areas. Secure parking is provided. As the property is security fenced, has an automated gate, each room has an independent alarm system, coupled with the added security of staff being onsite 24 hours a day, you really can sit back and relax.
Each room is equipped with ceiling fans, some with air conditioners, and heated bathrooms, bar fridges, Mnet TV, hairdryers, and tea/coffee making facilities, with movies available on request. For added piece of mind each room has an independent alarm system. Ample secure parking is provided adjacent to the lodge.
A wide and varied freshly prepared substantial cooked breakfast is provided. Freshly prepared fruit salads and baked muffins are provided daily. Our breakfasts are guaranteed to satisfy even the heartiest appetite. Special dietary requirements accommodated for, just ask us and we’ll do our best to ensure your requests are catered for
We are able to take advantage of the sub-tropical climate by dining 'al fresco' under the cover of a large thatched gazebo that forms the centrepiece for the garden. A large C shaped 13m swimming pool, which has a deep end of 3m, which is ideal for all diving enthusiasts, hugs the gazebo. Pool loungers are provided for you to sit by the pool and soak up the Durban sunshine. The underwater pool lighting and subtle garden lights provide a truly tropical island atmosphere to the place after dark
Agulhas House is also only 45 minutes drive from Durban Airport (transfers can be arranged). It is also just up the road from Sappi Saiccor for the businessman.

"We had planned to go from East London to the Drakensberg, but realized that it was too far to travel comfortably in one day. So we decided to stop at Agulhas House in Umkomas for one night.
The entrance to the property did not look too inviting between two buildings with an electronically controlled security gate. However once through, we entered another world of rooms surrounding an attractive swimming pool. Breakfast was served in the open under a lovely thatched roof. The rooms were very modern, comfortable and clean with all the amenities of modern living. Although right in the centre of Umkomaas, it was a real oasis of peace. The manager was so friendly and our only concern was our very short stay. "
