An African Dream Come True

Ever fantasised about owning your very own escape in the heart of the African bush? That fantasy could become a reality thanks to Bakubung Villas, an exciting new opportunity presented by the Legacy Hotel Group.

Less than two hours’ drive from Johannesburg, you could have a private retreat at Bakubung Bush Lodge, which is known as one of South Africa’s iconic Bushveld resorts and is situated in the stunning, malaria-free Pilanesberg National Park. The park was also recently awarded the title of South Africa’s most popular game reserve by the South African Tourism Board.

“The Bakubung Villas project is a unique, rare property investment opportunity. It allows investors to acquire their very own piece of this iconic resort and make it their own,” says Ewan Dykes, sales and marketing manager at Magic Breakaways Property Developments.

This project is made up of just 22 private stands, all of which are situated within the Pilanesberg National Park, making this an exclusive offering.

“Investors can now enjoy the best of both worlds, by purchasing a stand and designing their own private lodge, with the Big Five roaming virtually on their doorstep, yet still enjoy all the incredible services and facilities already offered by the resort and its hotel,” Dykes says.

Bakubung’s facilities include a luxurious new day spa, a variety of dining experiences and bars, children’s playgrounds, and the ever-popular Junior Ranger’s Programme. There are also superb conference facilities, a wildlife and game drive department, tennis courts, and a number of other facilities and services to make use of and enjoy.

What’s even more appealing about buying a Bakubung Villa is that the entire investment is structured on a turnkey, hassle-free basis that’s driven and managed by the Legacy Hotel Group. Therefore, everything – from the initial construction of your lodge to the dayto-day operations and management thereafter – is taken care of by one of Africa’s leading hospitality brands.

“Owners also have the option of incorporating their lodge into the resort’s commercial rental pool whereby we will completely service, market and manage your lodge, providing you – as the owner – with an immediate financial return. The year-on-year annual tourism rate is on the increase in the park, and the launch of the new Pilanesberg Airport means our guests and owners will be able to fly from Johannesburg and Cape Town directly to Pilanesberg and back,” Dykes says.

“In terms of ownership and accessibility, as well as the broad array of services and facilities both onsite and on neighbouring Bakubung, I think one would struggle to find a similar property opportunity which ticks as many boxes as the Bakubung Villas do,” Dykes concludes.

Knowing that you have a place in the magnificent African bush that you can escape to whenever you wish, where housework and maintenance aren’t your responsibility, and one that can even earn you money? Sounds like a dream come true.
