Having it all

Consisting of undulating green hills, pockets of mysterious forest, extensive lakes, and some lovely coastal scenery, there is something for everyone. Zimbali Lakes Resort is close to the shops, hospitals and schools of Ballito, uMhlanga and La Lucia, it’s a mere 40 kilometres to the centre of Durban on the M4 or N2, and a quick 15-minute drive to King Shaka International Airport, and the business and industrial hub of the Dube Tradeport. The spectacular game reserves and national parks of Zululand are just to the north, as are the popular subtropical dive resorts of Maputaland.
