Ballito has been voted the best place to live in Durban with the most secure lifestyle estates available.

Demand is exceptionally high for estate living for families who want a better lifestyle, numerous outdoor activities, low crime, great shops and good schools. 

With numerous lifestyle estates that offer a secure and stress free lifestyle in the greater Ballito area, Simbithi Eco Estate is the most sought after estate, followed by Zimbali Coastal Resort, Dunkirk Estate, Umhlali Golf Estate, Brettenwood Coastal Estate, Sheffield Beach Estate, Hilltop Estate, Port Zimbali, Manor Estates, Palm Lakes Estate, Beverley Hills Estate and Seaward Estate. There are numerous choices available with security being top priority followed by 'it must be damp free' and offer 'contemporary modern living and great finishes'.

Since all the estates are relatively new, most of the houses and apartments are not more than 5 years old and fullfil the demand.

Ballito is now quite central and in close proximity to the new business centre of Durban and a mere 15 minutes drive to the new International King Shaka Airport and Dube Tradeport.

Demand is really high with plenty of rental enquiries from all over the country from people who are looking to relocate to these estates.

Families who are opting to use the convenient location of the airport are choosing to 'work in Joburg' but 'live on the coast'. Bringing up kids in Ballito has become a very attractive option. There are great schools in the area with Crawford College North Coast, Ashton International, Umhlali and now Trinity Schools in Palm Lakes Estate and more healthy outdoor sporting activities with some of the best athletes coming from the region.

Everyone is choosing to live a better life and relocate to Ballito.
