Woodpecker Inn

8/10 Good

"We only stayed 1 night. But, the food was terrific. The staff from the front to the bar and restaurant were terrific and engaging. Quick shout out to Jocelyn (spelling i hope is correct) from the restaurant, for the laughs!!! Our room was quaint and comfortable. We also had a convenient shuttle pickup from Richards Bay airport. If I came back, I would definitely stay here again."
