Welcome to Kamonande Private Nature Reserve
WATERBERG BIOSPHERE LIMPOPO
Kamonande is a privately owned Nature Reserve in the heart of the Waterberg. The reserve is situated in the Limpopo Province of South Africa, where you can hear the sun go down in the call of birds coming home to roost; the far-off cry of jackal; the bark of Impala and the rustling of small creatures scurrying into protection for the night. The reserve is owned by a large group of private investors. All the investors own shares in luxury chalets that were developed to facilitate the development and sustainability of the nature reserve. Only the shareholders have occupational rights of the chalets and visiting rights to the reserve.

INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES
Full ownership
Units can be bought on a “full ownership” basis with an inseparable share in the Game Farm.
Fractional ownership
- In addition, fractional ownership proved to be very popular in the development over the last couple of years with a ratio of 9:1 in favour of fractional ownership to full ownership.
- A leisure property or holiday home is more affordable when shared. Through the fractional ownership model you can own a share from as little as R130 000 in a chalet which includes the furniture, game viewer, etc. and the chalet in turn owns an inseparable share in the farm and all the game.
- The units are fully furnished and registered in a Company with 10 shareholders or a Close Corporation with 10 members.
- A share or interest is a marketable asset and can be traded freely on the open market.
- Your investment secures you 5 weeks per year on a rotational basis according to a fixed roster. In other words, you get one week every 10 weeks on an ongoing basis every year and over a period of time your weeks will fall in school holidays and over Christmas, Easter, etc.
- Every unit/chalet elects a Trustee as it’s representative on the Body Corporate who manages the development. The day to day management of the development is performed by a dedicated team who either live on the property or in the immediate vicinity.
OUR LOCATION
Kamonande is situated in the Waterberg District of the Limpopo province of South Africa and consists of spectacular Bushveld and Savannah along the Waterberg Mountain Range.
The name comes from the ability of the mountains to store water like a sponge which is slowly released into several streams and rivers throughout the year. The Waterberg has a rich history and artifacts dating back to the Stone Age have been found at Makapans Valley World Heritage Site. About half of the Waterberg area of 14500 sq.km is an Unesco Biosphere Reserve which stretches from Marakele towards Wonderkop Nature Reserve north of the town of Marken.
The landscape and flora is unique and is one of only two savanna biospheres of its kind in the world – the second being in Tanzania. Vaalwater is the only town on the higher plateau of the Waterberg. The other towns are situated around the Waterberg Mountains. The sour grass veld is not ideal for farming which explains the abundance of game farms in the area.
