The Seaglass

The Seaglass, a contemporary architectural masterpiece, is strategically situated high above the old town of Ballito, offering panoramic views of the Durban harbour to the Tugela Mouth. Its steel and glass design seamlessly blends luxury and tranquility, capturing the awe-inspiring beauty of the sea and sky. The property is designed around a natural bowl, providing a harmonious connection with the surrounding coastal scenery.

Upon entering the double volume entrance, visitors are greeted by a magnificent 25m rim flow pool that reflects the vastness of the ocean beyond. The Seaglass embraces sustainable living, operating largely off the grid with photovoltaic panels, wind turbines, and a water storage capacity of 30,000L, including filtered municipal feed and a UV purification system. The genuine Pod Mahogany timber flooring, sourced from a green registered project in Mozambique, adds a touch of natural beauty, with offcuts repurposed to create screens and enhance the building's sustainability.

Every room features floor-to-ceiling glass on three sides, allowing an abundance of natural light and optimal ventilation. Each room is equipped with an en-suite bathroom, private deck, air-conditioning, and a tea/coffee station, ensuring comfort and elegance. Guests can witness whales gracefully swimming by during their season or dolphins playfully frolicking in the waves from the comfort of their rooms.

The highlight of The Seaglass is the 25-meter pool, a serene oasis suspended above the ground, offering a refreshing escape after a sun-soaked day. With seven undercover parking bays and three distinct lounge areas, including the main lounge, verandah, and upstairs double volume lounge, the property provides ample space for relaxation and unwinding.

Conveniently located just half an hour north of Durban and a 15-minute drive from King Shaka Airport, The Seaglass offers easy access to stunning beaches and the warm waters of the Indian Ocean. For wildlife enthusiasts, the renowned Umfolozi and Hhlhluwe game parks are approximately 204km away, allowing visitors to witness the best of South African wildlife.
