One of the last remaining sea-facing sugar farms in South Africa, this property is as unique as it is magnificent. Brettenwood combines the security and facilities of a gated residential estate with the privacy of an exclusive neighborhood. Composed of carefully selected natural materials and colors, your exquisite residence blends in harmony with the natural surroundings—an environmental consideration that also maximizes the sweeping views of the ocean, dam and forest that you will enjoy from spacious patios and outdoor rooms. When it’s time to explore this splendid natural setting, Brettenwood Coastal Estate offers plenty of opportunities for fun and excitement. Stroll along a historic 2-mile walking trail leading to bird-hides and forest walks or down to the beach only 400 yards from the estate boundary. Take a boat ride to view whales and dolphins, enjoy a round of golf at one of six nearby championship courses, or simply relax on the beach. Nearby Ballito boasts a variety of shopping malls and restaurants and is known as the hub of the north coast, and Durban is a half-hour drive away.

Why is this resort unique?

The Lakes is the first KwaZulu Natal development. The resort was designed by award-winning architects whose designs accentuate available light, views and work in harmony with the subtropical climate. The resort property has four distinct eco-zones: glade forest, grasslands, wetlands and coastal forest. These regions create a haven for a variety of small animals and over 75 species of birds. In addition, an historic 2-mile walking trail winds through the estate.
