...YOU DON'T NEED TO LIKE GOLF TO FALL IN LOVE WITH OUBAAI...

...THIS LUXURY LIFESTYLE RESORT CATERS TO ALL ASPECTS OF WHO YOU ARE...

Today, Oubaai is one of the country’s premier golf resorts and home to some of its most outstanding real estate. With a few select stands, residences and apartments now available to purchase, there’s EVERY REASON to make ‘The Gem of The Garden Route’ your new home.

We want our residents to make the most of this remarkable estate and that means ensuring their safety at all times. You can let the kids ride off on their bikes unaccompanied – like you used to do as a child. You can walk the streets at any hour you please. You take a solitary stroll through the forest without any sense of fear…

...whether you’re into fine dining and entertaining, fitness, outdoor pursuits or spa pampering. And getting around couldn’t be easier: whether you’re nipping across to a neighbour’s house, dining at the clubhouse or working out at the gym, simply get in your golf cart and go.

 

GEORGE

While you’re at liberty to lose yourself in the resort’s 242 hectares of natural beauty, a short eight minutes drive will see you at the doors of George International Airport hopping onto your private jet or on the next direct flight to Johannesburg or Cape Town.

Worried about essentials like education, medical care, banking, shopping and entertainment? Don’t be. As the Garden Route’s largest urban centre, George really does have it all – in droves. And the town itself is only a few minutes away…

VICTORIA BAY

Surfing at Victoria Bay, one of smallest and most hidden bays on the Garden Route, renowned for its safe bathing and ‘long ride’ big waves.

TSITSIKAMMA

Hiking and nature trails in the nearby Tsitsikamma National Park, a protected area of natural diversity defined by its expanses of indigenous forest and fynbos, deep river gorges, kloofs and spectacular waterfalls.

HEROLDS BAY

This quaint, charming seaside village is beautifully secluded and serene – a best-kept secret for sun-worshippers and surfers alike. Nestled in a sheltered rocky cove, Herolds Bay stretches out beneath Oubaai, its wide golden beach beckoning the estate’s residents to take a stroll on its soft sands or go for a swim in its safe, warm waters.
