WELCOME
Discover a paradise of rare eco-diversity
Gamtoos Mouth Resort is situated at the mouth of the Gamtoos River approximately 35 km from Jeffreys Bay. It is a stone’s throw from Port Elizabeth with easy access from the N2 highway to the R102. It offers a unique coastal lifestyle with access to the lagoon, river and sea.
The resort, comprising log style homes, was laid out with care, offering flowing spaces to accommodate nature’s creatures and flora.
HISTORY
Gamtoos Mouth Resort was developed by Gamtoos Mouth Investments owned by prominent Port Elizabeth family, The Rushmeres. Their vision was to develop the then historical cottages and caravan park into an upmarket coastal lifestyle village with an eco- friendly ethos. Established in 1998, almost all of the 449 erven have been sold.
ESCAPE THE CITY
Over the years, many beautiful houses have been built. Architecturally designed homes blend into the dense coastal dune belt and the natural rustic surroundings. Some houses enjoy breathtaking views over the sea while others have valley and bush views. The green roofs ensure that the houses merge with the natural surroundings. Also, each plot must keep part of its natural indigenous vegetation. The Architectural Committee approves plans submitted to the local Kouga Municipality.
ACTIVITIES
The Resort is set in 356 hectares. Many green belts and open spaces are for the exclusive use of the residents. These include a boating slipway on the Gamtoos River offering launching, braai and ablution facilities. A play-park, unspoiled beaches, lagoon, coastal wetlands, saltwater lakes and hiking trails are all for the use of the residents.
