In a premium locale, Zimbali Lakes Resort defines a new echelon of estate distinction. Encompassing lakes, golf, a choice of residential living options, various leisure amenities, beach access, a lakeside retail development and being situated close to all convenience needs, Zimbali Lakes Resort is set to become a highly coveted destination on the North Coast of KwaZulu-Natal.
Set on over 300 hectares, the new Zimbali Lakes Resort has been planned as a number of curated nodes, each with a distinct signature set within varied terrains, alongside the golf course or the 20-hectare lake and also across the M4 highway neighbouring the established Zimbali Estate. This stylish oasis uniquely combines coastal residential living with urban hubs, tourist nodes and recreational facilities to create an active and relaxed life by the coast. It is also purposefully pet friendly.
Different living options will range from freehold stands, where one-of-a kind contemporary homes can be constructed, as well as penthouses, suites, townhouses, villas, and retirement abodes embracing “whole of life” housing options. Along with this is the choice of signature facilities for fitness, health and wellness.
The new 18-hole Zimbali Lakes Golf Course is currently under construction and is envisaged to be completed in the last quarter of 2024. There will also be a dedicated golf clubhouse. The two fresh water lakes are a stand out feature, running along the southern border providing a focal point for lakeside living and an environment for water sport activities, that will range from stand up paddling, canoeing, kayaking and catch and release fishing.
