AUCTIONEERS NOTE – AN AUCTION OF SERIOUS NATURE, AN OPPORTUNITY SECOND TO NONE! THE ENTIRE RESORT!
Few opportunities come along that combine lifestyle, history, scale, and location quite like this one. Auction One proudly presents the Arendsnes Resort in Chintsa East, going under the hammer – and with it, the chance to own one of the most unique and iconic coastal resorts along South Africa’s magnificent EASTERN CAPE.
Set on 3.39 hectares of prime coastal real estate, the Arendsnes Resort is surrounded by a stunning natural environment, with unspoiled beaches just a stroll away. Perfectly positioned near other landmark hospitality destinations like Crawfords Cabins, Prana Lodge and a short drive from the Olivewood Wildlife & Golfing Estate and Inkwenkwezi Private Game Reserve.
This property offers immense potential to continue as a much-loved family resort, or to be reimagined into something even greater!
The sellers, now aged 85 and 79, have lovingly cared for and operated this property for over 41 years, carefully planning and thoughtfully positioning every structure. Their dedication is evident in every corner – from the extensive accommodation options to the entertainment spaces – and while the property is still in a maintained condition, it is ready for a modern upgrade that will unlock its full potential.
The resort features a total of 45 separate units:
- 23 x 1-bedroom units
- 17 x 2-bedroom units
- 4 park homes
- Owner’s private residence perched atop the sand dune, offering miles of unobstructed breath-taking sea views of the Indian Ocean.
In addition, there are 35 caravan sites, complete with ample ablution facilities including showers, toilets, and basins. The resort also includes reception, fully equipped kitchen with cold room and two large conference facilities, making it an ideal venue for corporate retreats, weddings, and group bookings.
Other standout features include:
- A huge undercover entertainment area
- Sparkling swimming pool and a Super tube
- Borehole(repairs required) and two Eskom points
- Expansive workshop and garages
- Ample secure parking
- Property sold fully furnished.
The main house “THE ARENDSNES” is a statement in itself – a thatch-roofed, face brick residence with aluminium windows, accessed by a private cable car that climbs the dune. This family home is set over two levels and includes 3 lounges, an indoor entertainment area, open-plan living, fitted hard wood kitchen with scullery, sunroom, built-in braai, 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, and even a private Jacuzzi. Truly a space designed for comfort, relaxation, and soaking in those uninterrupted ocean views.
The Arendsnes Resort is more than just bricks and mortar – it’s a legacy. It has been the backdrop of countless holidays, school trips, family gatherings, and seaside escapes for generations. With its location, size, and facilities, this property is a ready-made investment with enormous potential for those who have the vision to take it into its next exciting chapter.
