For those that need to be centrally based and conveniently located for commuting to various Durban venues, but avoid dense traffic, whilst still in easy reach of any of Durban`s attractions and venues, or even any nearby suburb, city or town - even game parks, Drakensberg Mountains, Midlands Meander, etc. as the property is an onramp away from the N3 freeway situated on the doorstep of Durban CBD, yet nestled away amidst a tree-filled garden and leafy suburb.
Beautiful Durban is the largest and busiest port city in Africa. Because of this, there is an extensive road network leading to and from any destination in South Africa. The Crescent is therefore your gateway to Kwazulu Natal and beyond.
We offer small to medium range conference facilities which can be easily accessed and found by delegates as the property is an offramp away and clearly visible from the N3 freeway.

The property can be converted exclusively for this purpose and we are able to host conferences of up to 20 delegates, offering meeting and interview rooms as required.
We have designed our conference venue for intimacy and comfort to meet the needs of our customers.

Activities:
- For the sport enthusiast, our location is also close to the local soccer, tennis, cricket sports grounds as well as swimming pool.
- We are also well suited for the 2010 FIFA Soccer World Cup as we are only 5 minutes from the newly built Moses Mabhida Stadium due for seven matches as well as a semi final.
- Or why not try swimming with Sharks at the uShaka Marine World located down the round. Beautiful Durban is the largest and busiest port city in Africa.
- International Divers are also amazed by the world renowned Aliwal Shoal on the Natal South Coast and captivated by the worlds unique and greatest marine spectacle, the Annual Sardine Migration followed by feeding frenzy of birds, dolphins, whales and sharks.
