Teremok Marine

Along the trop­i­cal belt of KwaZulu-Natal, nes­tled amongst the palm and giant milk­wood trees lies Ter­emok Marine, a lux­u­ri­ous five-star bou­tique lodge. Ter­emok Marine Bou­tique Hotel and Spa is one of those rare places with a won­der­ful his­tory but is thor­oughly contemporary.

Built in the late 1950′s, Ter­emok was intended as the hol­i­day home of a Russ­ian trav­eller. Aptly named, as the word means ‘lit­tle hide­away’ – and a hide­away it cer­tainly is.  Sit­u­ated just a kilo­me­tre from the hus­tle and bus­tle of Umh­langa village’s shops, restau­rants and pop­u­lar beaches, Ter­emok is a haven of tran­quil­lity nes­tled among ancient milk­wood trees.

All eight suites are unique in design, lay­out and feel with small sub­tleties like indi­vid­ual scent and mood-music, cre­at­ing an enchant­ing atmos­phere. Each suite trans­lates some of the house’s her­itage through decor and art. The atten­tion to detail and com­mit­ment to mak­ing guests feel at home is evi­dent through­out – a feast for the senses indeed. We stayed in the Zodiac Suite and were totally enchanted, but it is cer­tainly worth drag­ging your­self away from your suite for the deli­cious break­fast served alfresco or for a truly indul­gent treat­ment in the Spa.

Ter­emok is the per­fect com­bi­na­tion of all the things that make for a fab­u­lous break.
