Location
Sandpiper 5 sits directly on the beach in Ballito, with clear views of the sea. Guests can use the outdoor pool, which has a shallow end and a fence around it, open all year. The garden and terrace have outdoor furniture and a picnic area, plus BBQ facilities for grilling.
Spacious Three-Bedroom Apartments
The apartment has three bedrooms and two bathrooms, one with a bath and hand shower, one with a shower and sink, plus a separate toilet. The kitchen is fully stocked with cookware and appliances, including a washing machine and tumble dryer. The living room is comfortable, and all rooms have ceiling fans. Free WiFi works throughout the property.
Dining
There is no onsite restaurant, but the apartment's kitchen lets you cook your own meals. Several restaurants, a bakery, a waffle house, and a supermarket are within 500 meters. A coffee trailer on the beach sells drinks nearby. BBQ facilities are available on the property for outdoor cooking.
Leisure
The outdoor pool has a view of the sea and a shallow end, good for kids. A braai area (BBQ) is available for family gatherings. The beach is a few meters away, with a safe swimming area. Nearby activities include golfing, fishing, windsurfing, hiking, and diving. A shopping mall is 2 km away.
Accessibility
Sandpiper 5 offers daily housekeeping, a 24-hour front desk, and private check-in/check-out. Free parking is on-site, including accessible spots. The property has facilities for disabled guests, is wheelchair accessible, and has family rooms. Non-smoking rooms are available, and there is a designated smoking area. Key access provides 24-hour security. Note: the check-in office is a 10-15 minute drive away, and taxis can be scarce, so plan ahead if you don't drive.
“Sandpiper 5 truly captures the essence of a home away from home in Ballito. The proximity to the beach is undeniable, yet the on-site pool and braai area create a self-contained, relaxed environment that feels wonderfully personal. Having a well-equipped kitchen and laundry facilities only solidifies that sense of comfort, making it an easy place to settle into.”
