Located in a natural habitat with a lagoon, the ANEW Hotel Ocean Reef Zinkwazi is directly linked to Zinkwazi Beach by a private boardwalk. It features an outdoor pool with a terrace. The air-conditioned rooms at the Ocean Reef come with satellite TV and mini-bars. Apartments feature well equipped kitchens with dishwashers and balconies. All units include bathtubs. Guests can enjoy long walks along the coastal dunes and forests. The hotel’s tour desk can help arrange deep sea fishing or indicate the best surfing spots. Wi-Fi is free in all public areas. The King Shaka International Airport is 29 mi from Hotel Ocean Reef and airport shuttle service is available on request. Please note: We are currently undergoing renovations to the exterior of some of our buildings as well as working on extending our swimming pool. The pool will still be in use but there may be noise disruptions. Thank you for your understanding. We apologize for any inconvenience caused.
