The Avanti Residences and Tatali Society Club launch by the Master Developers of Zimbali Lakes on 26 August 2025 has signalled a bold new chapter in luxury coastal living and automotive culture on the KwaZulu-Natal North Coast. Positioned as KZN’s first supercar-centric residential development, the unveiling drew high-net-worth buyers, investors, media, and car enthusiasts to an immersive showcase that fused property, lifestyle, and performance heritage.
This highly fuelled event at Zimbali Lakes was transformed into a pit lane of prestige, lined with supercars and vintage vehicles. Guests were welcomed with fine canapés and cocktails before enjoying an exclusive presentation about Zimbali Lakes, whereafter they were also indulged about the privileges and access available to them through the Tatali Society Club (TSC) when buying into Avanti Residences. The climax peaked with the dramatic reveal of a Miami blue Avanti-branded McLaren – a showpiece that set the tone for other memorable experiences, including an F1 simulator competition and black carpet runway, preparing guests for a taste of what’s to come that’s unlike anything yet to be seen in KZN.
Market Demand for Supercar Lifestyle Living
The launch highlighted a demand for secure, world-class storage solutions for high-value vehicles in Kwa-Zulu Natal, with Zimbali Lakes answering this demand through its TSC Showroom and Supercar Vault. Developed in partnership with RACE!, this climate-controlled, professionally managed facility offers showroom-grade presentation, detailing, and maintenance – safeguarding automotive assets that often exceed R5 million in value.
“Supercars are more than vehicles; they are delicate works of art that demand specialist care and asset management,” said Neil Cocker,TSC & Avanti Residences Operations Manager. “Our research confirmed the demand for this offering, with many collectors running out of space to securely house their investments. The idea by the Zimbali Lakes’ team of providing all Tatali residents with access to the TSC Showroom and Supercar Vault means that those buying into Avanti Residences will also have access to both the lifestyle and the management framework to protect and elevate these high value automotive assets.”
A Lifestyle Beyond the Ordinary
Beyond its automotive facilities, Avanti offers 63 residences – from elegant one-bedroom apartments to expansive penthouses – all designed to maximise Zimbali Lakes’ ocean, lake, and fairway views. The value of this kind of investment won’t be lost on residents buying into Avanti who will also have access to the TSC Skybar & Restaurant, a rooftop destination for experiential dining and sunset gatherings. The additional membership to the Tatali Society Club, is set to offer whiskey lockers, cigar lounges, and curated networking events.
“Avanti Residences is a statement in design and lifestyle within Zimbali Lakes,” added Dave McGregor, Sales & Marketing Manager at Zimbali Lakes. “It combines the exclusivity of Zimbali Lakes Estate address with the unique prestige of a supercar-focused community, appealing to discerning investors who demand both returns and refinement.”
