How it works

A holiday plan, not a timeshare. You never own a share, pay levies or sign for life.

Quiet season, school breaks or the Easter and July holidays. Your season sets your price.

Pay monthly

A once-off joining fee, then one debit order a month. The increase each year is printed in your agreement.

Request your week

Send us three preferred weeks in your season. We confirm one in writing, at least 8 weeks ahead.

Come back next year

Five weeks over five years. Carry one week forward if life gets in the way.

Membership or renting?

Put in what you would pay to rent a 3-bedroom place for a week today. We compare the same 10 nights a year over five years, whichever way the answer falls.

Your season

Cabana Mio's own booking page: R1,300 to R1,829 a night outside December (October 2026). Amanzimtoti 3-bedroom units sleeping six list at R1,300 to R2,500 a night on LekkeSlaap.

Five years, side by side

Membership: joining fee + 60 payments
Renting the same week five times
Membership per year (10 nights)
First-year cash for membership

Membership also means a confirmed week every year and no booking-site queue. It is still your choice: if renting works out cheaper for your dates, this shows it.

Your holiday wallet

The rules are short, so here they all are.

One week, every year

Seven nights in your season, every membership year for five years. We never sell more memberships than the weeks we hold for members.

Carry one forward

Can't come this year? Move that week to the next year's quiet season. One week can be carried, once.

Three bonus nights

Every year, three extra quiet-season nights, bookable up to 14 days ahead when a duplex is free. More nights at the member rate too.

Family use

Send your parents or your grown children in your place. Weeks may not be rented out or sold.

Hand it on

Transfer the membership to someone else with our approval, for the years that remain.

No lifetime tie

No levies, no special assessments, no resale problem. After five years it ends, or you renew at a loyalty price.

Our charter

Quality beach holidays that are affordable and flexible, without the lifetime obligations and rigid rules of timeshare.

Honest pricing

Every rand over five years is in your agreement before you sign.

Respect

If money gets tight, talk to us. We will work out a plan with you.

Long-term

We ask one question: is this good for our members and for the resort?

Well kept

Your annual fees pay for upkeep you will see when you arrive.

Questions

Is this a timeshare?

No. You do not buy a share of the property and there are no levies. You pay a fixed, published amount for five holiday weeks over five years. The agreement ends after 60 months.

What is excluded?

16 December to 3 January is not part of any membership. Everything else in your season can be requested.

How do the bonus nights work?

Each membership year includes three extra nights in the quiet season. You can book them up to 14 days before arrival whenever a duplex is free, add them to your week, or use them for a long weekend.

Am I guaranteed a week?

Yes, one week in your season every membership year. Your preferred dates depend on availability, which is why we ask for three choices and confirm in writing at least 8 weeks ahead.

Can I cancel?

You can cancel within 5 business days of signing for a full refund. After that you may cancel with 20 business days' written notice, subject to a reasonable cancellation charge set out in the agreement, as the Consumer Protection Act allows.

Can I rent out my week?

No. Membership weeks are for you, your family and guests you name. They may not be rented out or sold to third parties.

Is housekeeping included?

Each stay includes linen, towels and a full clean on departure. A mid-stay clean can be added.

How do I pay?

The joining fee by EFT, then a monthly debit order you authorise with your bank.

Reserve a founding membership

Tell us which season you are considering. Neil or Jolene will phone you, walk you through the agreement and answer every question before you decide. Nothing is payable until you sign.

Founding members keep the 3% yearly increase for all five years. After 50 memberships, prices move to the standard rate.
