Umhlali Property Redevelopment - Sugar Village.

Feb 27

Once upon a time, Umhlali was a small but mighty village that existed long before the hustle and bustle of Ballito's large-scale development. Many of the locals who grew up on the North Coast of KwaZulu-Natal hold precious memories of Umhlali deep in their hearts. Despite the village's decline into obscurity during Ballito's property surge, there remained a shining gem at its core - Umhlali Preparatory School, one of the finest public schools in the country with over 1000 students.

Umhlali has been biding its time, waiting patiently for the perfect moment to shine once more, and that day has finally arrived! With property becoming increasingly scarce in Ballito, many people are choosing to move further North to stunning estates like Dunkirk, Brentwood, Zululami, and Seaton Estate. Suddenly, Umhlali finds itself back in the spotlight, prime property once again!

It's time to celebrate the revival of this wonderful village, embrace its rich history, and look forward to a bright future. A village which was once surrounded by sugar farms.

Introducing Sugar Village: Home to a range of lifestyle shops, and decadent restaurants, as well as an inspiring line-up of festivities and fun for the family.

Sugar Village was a bustling hub of mini-factories at the heart of Umhlali, but today it has been transformed into something truly special - a stunning retail space that boasts impeccable quality finishes while retaining its rugged industrial charm.

With every step you take inside Sugar Village, you'll be enveloped in its unique character, a perfect blend of the old and the new. The steel beams and concrete floors speak of the village's industrial past, while the timber facade and peaceful gardens exude sophistication and elegance.

The attention to detail in the transformation of Sugar Village is truly remarkable, with every aspect of the property thoughtfully considered and executed to perfection. It's a testament to the vision and creativity of those who worked tirelessly to bring this space to life.

So come and experience the magic of Sugar Village for yourself, where the past meets the present in perfect harmony. You'll be swept away by its charm and captivated by its beauty, and you'll leave with a deep appreciation for the power of transformation and the endless possibilities it holds.

Michael Robert

In 2012 Michael was trying to find information about the launch of the iPhone 5 in South Africa. After searching and not being able to find reliable websites that provided useful information, he started Apple News (www.applenews.co.za). Two years after starting the website Michael made the bold move of committing to the project full-time, instead of a part time hobby. At this stage the website was not making any money but Michael is passionate about Apple products and has a great deal of knowledge about them, he decided he would rather spend his time doing something he is passionate about that he enjoys. At the start of 2015 Apple News changed to iGenius. Michael's desire for iGenius is to provide Apple users in South Africa with a one stop location where all their Apple needs could be addressed, from fixing iPhones, to offering support as well as training people how to use their Apple products and get the most benefit out of their device. While the dream has a long way to go Michael is always looking to partner with Apple fans around South Africa to create the best Apple experience. About Michael Michael had previously completed a computer technicians course, so had a solid foundation to start with when he purchased his first Apple product in 2004. After a week of using his new Powerbook, Michael wasn't really sure how to use the computer and kept referring back to using a Windows computer. Someone told him that unless he stops using Windows he will never learn to use his Mac. Michael made a decision that day to never use a Windows computer again. Though months of frustration followed, Michael taught himself to do anything and everything on a Mac. This absolute dedication to learn everything about using an Apple computer got Michael following every Apple event since 2006. During this time Michael started studying a Diploma in Marketing and guess who Michael applied all his learning to? thats right, APPLE. Michael was so fascinated with Apple the he eventually ended up studying NPS (Net Promoter System), Apple's loyalty metric used in every Apple Store. Michael's knowledge and experience with Apple products has lead him to be known as the iGenius amongst his peers.
