Are you on the hunt for the perfect apartment at Umhlanga Arch?

With 18 floors to choose from, comprising stunning coastal views and offering dizzying heights above the bustling Umhlanga scene, you are in a prime position to snap up Umhlanga’s most coveted real estate.

Read on to discover valuable tips to help you select the apartment that suits your preferences, from sun-facing direction and floor level to proximity to the Legacy Yard, and the choice between a loft, 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom, or penthouse unit.

Tips to choose your Umhlanga Arch apartment:

North, South or East-facing views

Let the sunshine in through our large floor-to-ceiling windows and large balcony views. Our spacious apartments offer sun-filled days framed perfectly.

Our North-facing units look out over the Legacy Yard with expansive views of the coastline from Umhlanga right up to Ballito.

South-facing units hold views facing Durban’s southern coastline right up to Durban beach, with views of Moses Mabhida Stadium a short 10-minute drive away.

East-facing units also known as front-facing units encompass a complete 180-degree view of Durban’s coastline directly from your balcony and master bedroom.

All apartments have double-glazed glass and heat protection. Your apartment remains at the perfect temperature all year round through our central air-conditioning system, especially during the hot summer months.

You also have the benefit of opening your balcony sliding door at any time of the year, rain or shine to enjoy peaceful moments outside. The balconies are covered and residents make full use of the outdoors taking coffee onto the balcony to enjoy the breath-taking views of the sky, through storms and beautiful blue-sky days.

Floor level selection

Elevate your living experience by contemplating the floor level that aligns with your vision. Higher floors offer awe-inspiring views and greater privacy, creating an elevated living experience. You will also be further away from the gentle music of our European High Street.

Conversely, lower floors offer accessibility and convenience, granting swift access to the building’s amenities. You will be able to get to reception and the Legacy Yard faster, and to your parked car in the secure underground parking garage.

Your choice should harmonise with your lifestyle and desires, whether that entails cityscape panoramas or immediate access to on-site facilities.

Lofts, apartments or penthouses
