Good food has a way of bringing people together.

Whether you are beginning the morning with breakfast, meeting someone for coffee or taking time out for a relaxed meal, The Notebook Hotel offers a welcoming place to gather around the table.

Our Mediterranean-inspired coffee shop menu includes a selection of meals, specialty coffees and refreshing drinks to enjoy inside or in our outdoor seating area overlooking the pool and ocean.

The Notebook Coffee Shop is open to guests and the public weekdays from 07:00 to 16:00 and weekends from 07:00 to 14:00.

Some weekends are meant for doing less.

Wake slowly, enjoy a cup of coffee, take a walk beside the ocean and return for a relaxed afternoon around the swimming pool.

At The Notebook Hotel, our comfortable rooms provide a peaceful base for couples, families and solo travellers wanting to spend a little time on the KZN South Coast.

With modern en-suite bathrooms, air conditioning, uncapped Wi-Fi and garden access, the essentials are already taken care of.

Welcome to The Notebook Hotel.

Situated in the coastal town of Umtentweni, we are a place to stay, meet, dine, celebrate and slow down. But at the heart of everything we offer is something much simpler: personal hospitality.

Here, you are never treated as just another room number. We want every guest to feel recognised, comfortable and genuinely welcome from the moment they arrive.

Whatever brings you to the South Coast, we look forward to becoming part of your story.

A slower morning.
A good coffee made for you. ☕️

Perhaps breakfast upstairs before deciding there’s absolutely no reason to hurry home yet. 🤍

And you don’t have to be staying with us to enjoy either, come for breakfast. Meet someone for lunch. Bring the team for a meeting. Find a quiet corner to work. Or simply come upstairs for coffee and a little ocean air. 🌊

For some, it’s their morning coffee spot. ☕️

For others, it’s where the team gets out of the office and around the same table.

For someone else, it’s breakfast with an old friend, a quiet afternoon with a laptop, a conference, a night away or simply somewhere lovely to sit for a while.

The emails will still be there.
So will the meetings.

Sometimes everyone just needs to get out.
Somewhere different.
Something lovely to eat.
A little fresh air.

And preferably somebody else dealing with the dishes afterwards. 😉🍽️

👉🏽 Breakfast with the family
👉🏽 Coffee with a friend while the kids are off school
👉🏽 A relaxed lunch
👉🏽 A little local outing without driving halfway across KZN
👉🏽 Or turn it into a midweek night away 🌿

You don’t always have to go far to make the holidays feel like holidays.
