Have you taken part in the Baywater Quest? Every week, there are a set of clues to follow, which take you on an adventure throughout the Resort. Family members, both young and old, thoroughly enjoy taking part in this challenge and report having had huge amounts of fun along the way. The purpose of the Quest is to provide an additional experience that adds to the creation of unforgettable memories for our guests. P.S. The first clue can be found on our Facebook page.

The Photo Scavenger Hunt has guests running around the Baywater Resort with a list of photos they need to take before their holiday is over. The Photo Scavenger Hunt is designed to ensure our guests get to take home super, fun photos of their holiday that they can look back on with delight in the years to come. The bonus for us is that we also get amazing photos of our Shareholders and guests having a wonderful time with their nearest and dearest! Don’t forget to take part when you visit us again!

If you have been following our Facebook page, you would have seen a post about our new Quad Bike Train. But what you won’t know is that 50% of all proceeds made using the “Train” will be donated to African Blessings, toward their Tractor Factor Campaign. We are delighted that we are able to help a Non-Profit Organisation in our own special way! Read on a little further to find out more about African Blessings and the great work they do.

Mrs. Carrington has owned timeshare for over 40 years and has enjoyed holidaying with her family in our “Slow Town” for the past 20 years.

They recently took part in the Baywater Quest, even in the rain, and enjoyed all of the challenges and getting to interact with their Baywater Family.


Your Slow Town Family

Here’s what a recent guest had to say: “Priscilla was absolutely exceptional and pleasant! My family and I loved and appreciated her service and personality tremendously!”

Have you met Linah Nkomo? She transferred with her husband, Witness, in 2018 and has been an exceptional Housekeeper. Linah is hard working and is always ready to put a smile on our guest’s faces.

Here’s what a recent guest had to say: “Linah was a complete 10 out of 10. She was very polite, and great with my children. She is the most friendly and pleasant person... She made us feel so welcome!”

Did you know that we have a new Public Relations and Recreation Officer? Antonette Groenewald, joined the Baywater Team in August this year and she has been hard at work ever since, ensuring that no special occasion is overlooked. Antonette has many activities planned to guarantee that everyone, young and old, will be entertained for hours on end. We are looking forward to everything she has planned for 2020.

Have you met Anques and Audrey? They are our incredible Reception Team. Anques and Audrey are always going ‘above and beyond' to ensure that all of our guests are happy and well taken care of, from the moment they arrive until the day we wave goodbye.

Witness is very hands on and hospitable. He is always available at the drop of a hat and will go the extra mile to keep guests happy and comfortable.

Keep The Good Times Rolling...

Each year brings with it a multitude of fun days and holidays to be enjoyed and celebrated. We always try to make our guests feel super special (as they are).

 
Father's Day
For Father’s Day, little gift bags of jelly beans with labels which read “Thanks for bean such a great dad” were given to the daddies upon check-in, along with a refreshing drink and yummy snack.
 
Women's Day
We created a photo booth for all of the women who were checking-in on Women’s Day. The ladies had to choose two words, that best described them, and then photos were taken. The ladies were also given a discounted breakfast voucher which they could use during their stay.
 
Spring Day
The Baywater Village entrance garden was decorated with bright wooden flowers and our recreation area was beautified in a bright spring theme for our Spring Day celebrations. Guests were also given fresh fruit juice to sip on while they checked in.
 
Heritage Day
We celebrated everything proudly South African during Heritage Day. Guests enjoyed a bring and braai with South African themed décor. Cookies, decorated with the South African flag, were also handed out during check-in.
