Kendra Gardens is a retirement home run by the Gujarati Hindu Sanskruti Kendra in Durban, for couples or singles. According to the home's website, the rooms are fully air-conditioned with en-suite private bathrooms, and the home has a lounge and mini lounges on each floor, two dining rooms, a gymnasium, a library, a hair salon, three consulting rooms, two elevators, a generator, 24-hour security with CCTV cameras, secure under-cover parking and a first-floor garden with a water feature. A fully equipped central kitchen provides all meals. The website lists an all-inclusive charge of R7,800 per month for single accommodation and R9,950 per month for double accommodation, VAT inclusive; it does not say when these were set, so confirm current rates with the home. The charge includes electricity and water, housekeeping, laundry, all meals, a smart TV with WiFi and parking for one vehicle per room. Residents have access to the Temple and to the religious and cultural activities that take place at the Kendra.
Typical costs for old age homes in South Africa
We do not have Kendra Gardens’s own fees. As a general guide:
Private old age homes charge R6,000–R20,000/month. NGO and church-run homes are often subsidised and accept SASSA pension (currently R2,400/month). Government-subsidised beds are limited and often have waiting lists.
These are typical South African ranges for this type of care, not this home’s prices. Actual fees vary by room type, level of care, and area, and they change every year - always confirm current rates with the home.
