The Treehouse Mtunzini

Please note that this is a family home. Nestled among the treetops, this unique family home is a 6-bedroom treehouse retreat blending luxury with nature. Upstairs, you'll find three bathrooms (one with a walk-in closet, bath, and shower, the others with en-suite showers), while downstairs includes a bathroom and an outdoor shower for a refreshing rinse under the open sky. One of the bedrooms is set slightly apart from the main house, offering privacy, its own fridge, and an en-suite shower. A self-contained flat with a shower-only ensuite adds extra flexibility for guests. The two lounges cater to every mood - upstairs offers Netflix and DStv for entertainment, while the ground floor lounge provides DStv access for a more relaxed viewing experience. The fully equipped kitchen is ideal for home-cooked meals, and multiple workspaces, a study/reading nook, and a peaceful library make this a dream for both leisure and productivity. A stoep invites relaxed mornings or evening chats, while two braai spots - one conveniently placed next to the sparkling outdoor pool—encourage outdoor living at its finest. Whether you're escaping for a quiet retreat or entertaining a group, this treehouse balances comfort, space, and serenity.

Area Info

Tucked along KwaZulu-Natal’s serene North Coast, Mtunzini is a tranquil village surrounded by nature and steeped in history. Just 90 minutes from Durban, it offers the perfect escape for travellers looking to slow down and reconnect with the outdoors—without sacrificing modern comforts.

Nature lovers will feel at home here. Mtunzini borders the Umlalazi Nature Reserve, where coastal dunes, mangrove forests, and unspoiled beaches create a sanctuary for wildlife and adventure. Walk the raised boardwalks, canoe along the river, or catch sight of the rare palm-nut vulture at the famous Raphia Palm Monument. With over 300 bird species recorded, it's a birder’s paradise—and a photographer’s dream.

Whether you're visiting for a peaceful retreat or an active getaway, Mtunzini offers the best of both. From hiking and birding to golf and beach strolls, it's an ideal destination for families, couples, and remote workers alike. And when the day winds down, you’ll return to the calming rhythm of coastal living, under wide skies and rustling palm fronds.
