A quiet place to live while you study
Secure, well-kept student accommodation just outside campus — with everything covered so you can focus on the semester.
Built for students, run like it matters
Eldon Residence 2 sits in Karino, a short drive from the Mbombela campus. Rooms open onto shared courtyards and balconies, with paved walkways and space to actually breathe between lectures.
The property is looked after daily — security on site around the clock, tidy common areas, and a management team that’s easy to reach.
Single or double, your call
Every room comes with a bed, storage, and a desk to work at — the difference is whether you share.
Your own space — bed, built-in wardrobe, desk and chair, with a window for natural light.
Two beds, two desks, and two windows — rent is charged per bed, so you know exactly what you’re paying.
Everything’s included
One rent payment covers the essentials and a few things you wouldn’t expect from student housing.

Evenings that feel like home
A shared lounge with a TV, a proper kitchen, and long communal tables make the common areas somewhere you’d actually want to sit — not just pass through.
Balconies facing open sky, a courtyard that’s quiet after dark, and the kind of everyday moments that make a residence feel lived-in rather than temporary.
Simple rent, no surprises
Two ways to pay, depending on how your studies are funded.
Rent is charged according to your NSFAS accommodation allowance or equivalent bursary — no extra costs on top.
A flat monthly rate that includes every amenity listed above — WiFi, transport, security, and more.
