‘Inspiring Serene-estate for real lovers of modern architecture, pure quality and serenity’

The synthesis of architecture, landscape, nature and specific lay-out is decisive for the distinctive atmosphere and experience. Located at the best place in ‘hippo-town’ St Lucia all surrounded by nature of World Heritage Site iSimangaliso Wetlands Park. The small town is the only place where you can meet hippos in the streets at night. St Lucia with a lot of facilities is a real tourism destination and a perfect gateway to a wide variety of activities as well.

The Dutch design is a mixture of minimalistic architecture and New Forms with the characteristic bent lines. For the warmth of African atmosphere we have used bright colours and lighting effects.

The lay out is clear: from the central entrance / reception with staircases you have access to the 6 rooms, lounge, breakfast room / big terrace with roof garden and pond and back garden with pool / park. You can experience the adjacent park from different levels.
