Villa D’Afrik is a one-of-a-kind private estate set on 14,4 ha of lush indigenous coastal forest within the greater Port Zimbali suburb and bordering the Zimbali Coastal Resort. Regarded as one of the most secure estates on the continent the professionally designed layers of security ensure this property is ready to receive global leaders and high profile guests while ensuring complete privacy. The designated helipad provides for direct inbound flights once clearing customs at the King Shaka International Airport a mere 18km to the South. The double 3m bulletproof fence-line greets visitors on arrival and sets the tone for an extraordinary experience.

The winding driveway leads past the various security barriers to the northern hill on the estate, which reveals an opulent manor house offering over 1,300 sqm of sensational living space. The magnificent water feature and double volume entrance area create an impressive sense of arrival with the main entrance foyer graced by a crystal chandelier and beautifully appointed interiors. The oversized reception rooms surprise and delight visitors with their scale and immaculate fixtures and fittings. The main residence offers four superb suites designed to host royalty and the extensive entertainment spaces are serviced by a professionally designed and equipped kitchen. The enormous pool dominates the central area creating the perfect backdrop to world-class entertainment opportunities. A pavilion design has been adapted from a distinct Balinese architectural aesthetic creating wonderful separate spaces such as the private office for negotiating billion-dollar deals or the incredible private bar and entertainment room able to easily host fifty of your closest friends or clients. The formal and informal dining areas are again separate pavilion-type spaces. A fully equipped private gym is an incredible addition.

Two large man-made lakes with state-of-the-art water-purification plants have been built to act as the center of a natural oasis for the hundreds of amazing bird species and gorgeous bushbucks that are indigenous and common on the estate. The cry of a white-crested fish eagle can often be heard over-head while the cheeky vervet monkeys scurry around the under-growth. This is an incredible natural wonderland that very few people will ever have the privilege of experiencing. Around each of the lakes, private entertainment pavilions have been installed, with the upper pavilion being the smaller and more intimate space able to host 100 guests while the lower pavilion is set on the large lake and able to host up to 500 people for a seated dinner with professionally designed and equipped kitchen underneath the pavilion.

The largely undeveloped portions of the 14,4 ha estate are where the great future value lies that can be unlocked by an owner who chooses to further develop the estate. Being part of the town planning scheme that defines the Zimbali Coastal Resort, the overall design aesthetic and density are accurately defined and provides for a range of new development opportunities. The giant fig tree, estimated to be more than a century old, dominates the high-point of the southern hill and provides an impressive vantage point from which to visualize future additions to this unique and outstanding property.
