Two of South Africa's finest championship courses on your doorstep — Zimbali Country Club (Tom Weiskopf, #1 in KZN) and Zimbali Lakes (Ernie Els) — set within indigenous coastal forest on the Indian Ocean. The ultimate golfer's base on the KZN coast.
The name says it all. Zimbali Sanctuary sits within The Sanctuary complex on the world-renowned Zimbali Coastal Resort — a name earned through the most meaningful kind of refuge: indigenous forest, Indian Ocean air, absolute security, and a home so beautifully appointed that leaving feels difficult.
Three spacious bedrooms, two full luxury bathrooms, a fully equipped open-plan kitchen and living space that flows seamlessly onto your private patio and garden. This is where families reconnect, couples exhale, golfers find their perfect base, and remote workers finally find their flow.
Every room tells the same story — thoughtful design, natural light, and the forest always just beyond the glass. Click any image to explore.
Whether you're chasing fairways, forest trails, or simply a long overdue exhale — the Sanctuary welcomes you.
Three spacious bedrooms and room for six, within the safety of a 24-hour secured estate. Let the children explore forest trails and the garden while you unwind on the patio. Zimbali's private beach is just moments away.
Wake to birdsong in the indigenous canopy and fall asleep to the rhythm of the Indian Ocean. Zimbali Sanctuary is where forest meets coastline, a combination found nowhere else on the KwaZulu-Natal coast.
High-speed WiFi, peaceful surroundings, zero distractions. Work from a place that genuinely inspires, then close the laptop and find yourself somewhere extraordinary. The ultimate remote work base.
