We asked him why he chose to get involved in this exciting project and why he loves this part of the world so much.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: You\u2019ve travelled all over the world. What makes the KZN North Coast special?<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>A:<\/strong> The KZN North Coast is special because of its unique blend of stunning natural beauty, warm ocean waters, and a rich cultural heritage. The location of Zimbali Lakes, nestled between lush forests and the sea and literally 15 minutes from everything one needs, offers an unparalleled living experience.\u00a0The KZN North Coast also boasts new infrastructure that is well managed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: Can you share a memory from your childhood holidays on the North Coast?\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>A:<\/strong> One of my fondest memories from my childhood holidays on the North Coast was playing golf with my father. The beautiful courses, the warm weather and the friendly people made every holiday special. After my recent visit here in April, I am even more convinced that this is where I would like to spend more time with my family\u00a0after retirement from golf.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Q: Why do you think it\u2019s worth investing in the North Coast?\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>A:<\/strong> The North Coast has seen significant growth and development over the years. Its natural beauty, coupled with its thriving tourism industry and growing infrastructure, make it a promising investment opportunity.<\/p>\n<p><strong><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-34274\" src=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/06\/General-CGI-1-Aerial.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1887\" height=\"883\" srcset=\"https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/06\/General-CGI-1-Aerial.jpg 1887w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/06\/General-CGI-1-Aerial-400x187.jpg 400w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/06\/General-CGI-1-Aerial-1024x479.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/06\/General-CGI-1-Aerial-768x359.jpg 768w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/06\/General-CGI-1-Aerial-1536x719.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/06\/General-CGI-1-Aerial-898x420.jpg 898w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/06\/General-CGI-1-Aerial-696x326.jpg 696w, https:\/\/getitmagazine.co.za\/ballito-umhlanga\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2024\/06\/General-CGI-1-Aerial-1068x500.jpg 1068w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1887px) 100vw, 1887px\" \/>Q: Can you share some of the inspiration behind the home you plan on building on the North Coast? <\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>A:<\/strong> For my home at Zimbali Lakes,\u00a0my wife and I\u00a0envision a design that blends seamlessly with the surrounding nature.
