Tekweni Backpackers

Durban


The motto of this place says it all: ‘Tekweni goes off’. Its courtyard, complete with pool and bar, gets jammed with socialising backpackers on Friday and Saturday nights, as well as on the regular braai (barbecue) nights. The techno beats and general whooping reach all corners of the complex, which includes a couple of well-maintained and artfully decorated lodges.

If peace and quiet is your thing, ask for a room away from the bar or try somewhere else.
