Experience the Caister Difference

Caister Lodge
Welcome to Caister Lodge – A Trusted Name in Retirement Living Since 1987
Once the site of the historic and much-loved Caister Hotel, Caister Lodge has evolved into one of Durban’s most sought-after retirement communities. Nestled in the heart of the Berea, our residence offers the perfect blend of history, comfort, and community.
Our prime location puts residents within easy reach of Musgrave Centre, Berea Park, popular churches, and public transport—with a city bus stop right at our gate—making it both convenient and well-connected.
Caister Lodge operates under a share block system, with each apartment individually owned. This structure not only creates a strong sense of belonging but also supports our future: a 25% contribution from each resale goes into the Caister Equalisation Fund, helping fund special projects and subsidize levies to ensure long-term sustainability.
More than just a place to live, Caister Lodge is a caring, secure, and peaceful community where your well-being is our top priority. Our dedicated board of directors, hands-on management, and caring staff are here to make every day feel like home.
