The Oyster Box is a luxury five-star hotel in Umhlanga, just north of Durban, South Africa. It was built in 1869 as a beach cottage and retained its name when it was converted into a hotel in the 1930s. In July 2011, Prince Albert II of Monaco and Princess Charlene of Monaco spent their honeymoon in its £4600 a night Presidential Suite.[1] It is also famous for its Spa and outdoor pools with spectacular views on the Indian Ocean.[2]
