th Coast’s best kept secret nate about the area and chose to t wants to share with others Seabreeze Estates and Holiday Accommodation is all about family. The estate agency has existed since around the birth of South Africa’s democracy in the mid-90s, and has helped transform a fishing destination into a thriving village and conservancy. Founder, Ann Smith was first to recognise the potential of the Leisure Bay and Glenmore areas. Her vision was for not only a holiday destination, but also for a well-run paradise waiting to welcome its visitors home. Much has changed since then. Today, Leisure Bay boasts an active Ratepayers Association, a passionate Conservancy Committee and a functional Neighbourhood Watch. It is truly the envy of other villages along the lower South Coast. Related to the original founder of Seabreeze Estates, Debbie Lennon and her family have taken up the running of the agency. They remain intricately woven into the beautiful fabric making up Leisure Bay. Seabreeze Holiday Letting offers a large range of holiday homes to let, spanning an equally large price range. “Whether you are on a budget or can afford absolute luxury, Seabreeze can accommodate you. From small to large families and those with pets – you name it!” Seabreeze Letting is responsible for the maintenance and cleaning of the homes. It takes pride in putting clients at ease and ensuring holidays (and the houses) are good clean fun. That side of things is run by Peter Schoeman, Debbie’s son. Under the mantle of Pot Pourri Property Care, Peter leads a team of women employed from the local community. Many of these women are long-serving employees. Pot Pourri also employs specialised gardeners to keep the holiday homes tidy, and is managed by Debbie’s life partner, Koos Coetzee. “Seabreeze Estates also focuses on property sales and has a track record of moving property for the best local prices.” What sets Seabreeze apart is the use of personalised videos to market properties. Sales division intern agent, Phillip Lennon achieves this through his vast award-winning skills in the fields of videography and television producing. “He films the homes, producing inserts posted on social media to showcase Leisure Bay’s beautiful beach houses and magnificent scenery.” Seabreeze Estates also administrates properties for private homeowners living abroad, body corporate and share-block companies. The dedicated team handles all administrative and domestic matters. The team at Seabreeze Estates is passionate about the area and chose to make Leisure Bay its home – a home it wants to share with others. “So come home – come home to Leisure Bay.”
