Welcome to Ivory Beach Lodge!
Sybarites and nature-lovers will find equal delight at the beautiful, Indo-African style home, Ivory Beach Lodge, of Massimo and Nicci Negra. Built on a secluded beach with vistas of pounding surf and densely-vegetated dunes, guests are accommodated in the beautiful 2-bedrooms cottage, a self-contained bungalow that floats in a leafy canopy of trees in the gently sloping garden. The property has a footpath that leads onto the seemingly endless golden miles of mostly people-less beach.
Organic thatch, wood, rough walls and pigmented floors blend seamlessly with luxurious and tasteful furnishings. The cottage offers an open plan lounge, dining and kitchenette area, and decking along the seaboard side which makes alfresco dining a delight, with whales and dolphins making regular appearances.
Guests have access to the property's swimming pool and sun deck.
This stretch of coast is dubbed "the golf coast" and Ivory Beach backs onto the fifth tee of one of the many excellent golf courses along the beautiful coastline. The Negra's award-winning trattoria, La Terrazza, is the obvious place to enjoy a delicious meal, a 10-minute stroll from the homestead.
In July (or so!) millions of breeding sardines come to the coast, trailed by giant flocks of seabirds that dive-bomb the frothing feast, with thousands of dolphins joining in too and there are tours out to watch the phenomenon.
The beautiful South Coast is world-renowned for two particularly special dive-sites, "Aliwal Shoal" and "Protea Banks", and Ivory Beach Lodge is well connected to a dive school/shop.

Convenient, comfy and great view. Surprisingly private. Great to be able to access the beach. Really helpful to have beach towels - thanks for the added extra! A perfect spot for a great holiday.
Fantastic place and great host. I highly recommend!
We had a great time at the ivory beach lodge. The cottage is lovely, the sea view amazing and Nicci and Massimo are very friendly hosts. We all in love with the dogs. Nicci and Massimo gave us many good tips and answered all our questions. Many thanks to our hosts and we hope to see them again!
This gem of a cottage is magnificent in its splendid traditional African style and architecture with thatched roof, but what a space inside. Has to be seen to be believed. Very friendly and accommodating hosts. We had a great stay.
We had a wonderful stay at Ivory Beach Lodge. The decor and finishes were lovely; just enough space for the four of us and a beautiful sea view.
Fantastic unit, great location with private beach and wonderful hosts.
Fantastic location, great architecture and interior design- we could not have been happier in the Cottage. The icing on the cake however was the milk former. A big thank you to Nicci, Linda and Massimo! Also do not miss the nearby Italian restaurant La Trattoria. Excellent food and service. You will find Nicci and Massimo there as well since they are the owner of the restaurant .
This is a delightful little cottage situated within the secure grounds of Nicola and Massimo's home. The decor is both stylish and comfortable, with bed linens and towels that are on par with the quality of a good hotel. The kitchen is small but well-equipped and has everything you need for simple self-catering meals. Follow the little path from the back of the garden, and you'll soon find yourself on a stunning stretch of beach. Nicola was an excellent host, happy to help with local recommendations and even suggestions for Johannesburg too. Perfect for a chilled out beach break!

Our stay at Ivory Beach Lodge was superb. The accommodation is comfortable and stylish and suited our needs perfectly. Nicci and Massimo were helpful, informative and kind. They made us feel welcome right from our arrival. We would highly recommend Ivory Beach Lodge.

Ambience and scenery is great, supposedly good for peace of mind.
