Welcome to a rare and prestigious offering in the heart of Stilbaai Oos – a timeless Cape Dutch-inspired guest lodge perfectly positioned at the gateway to one of South Africa’s most beloved coastal holiday destinations. Set on an expansive 3-hectare riverfront property, this exceptional estate offers not only an established and fully operational guest lodge, but also unmatched potential for future development.
As the first guest lodge visible upon entering Stilbaai, the location is unparalleled for business visibility and brand presence. The lodge itself is steeped in history, boasting original features that blend seamlessly with tasteful modern upgrades. Each of the eight luxurious en-suite bedrooms offers either serene valley views or panoramic vistas of the Goukou River, ensuring guests are surrounded by beauty and tranquility.
The heart of the home is a spacious dining and sunroom, which flows effortlessly onto a large patio overlooking the river – the perfect setting for breakfasts at dawn or sundowners in the golden light of dusk. The restaurant-grade kitchen is designed to cater to both intimate guest stays and high-end dining experiences, supporting the property’s dual zoning as a guest house and restaurant.
What truly sets this property apart is the opportunity it holds: in addition to the lodge, the land includes potential zoning rights for 2 commercial erven and 15 residential erven – a developer’s dream in a town where riverfront property is increasingly scarce and in high demand.
Adding to the appeal is a charming 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom cottage, ideal for use as manager’s quarters or additional guest accommodation, providing flexibility for owner-operated or fully-staffed models.
Whether you're an investor, hospitality entrepreneur, or visionary developer, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to acquire a landmark property that offers both immediate income and future expansion potential.
Stilbaai’s best-kept secret is no longer a secret. Don’t miss your chance to own a piece of paradise.
