At the Beekman Group, we know success means more when it’s shared. That is why we are incredibly proud to announce that our team has received six honours at the 2025 PMR.africa Business Excellence Awards. These accolades reflect the dedication, heart and high standards that each of our people brings to work every day.
This achievement celebrates the culture we’ve built together. From our resorts to our member support offices, every award speaks to the passion and professionalism that drive our teams to deliver exceptional results.
Recognised Across the Board for Excellence and Impact
The PMR.africa Awards celebrate excellence across industries, and this year, our recognition spans six key categories. From leadership to environmental impact and community upliftment, each award reflects the values and standards that define the Beekman Group.
We are proud to have received the following Diamond Arrow Awards in 2025:
- Neville Beekman was recognised as Most Admired in the category of Business Persons Delivering Outstanding Service and Contributing to the Economic Growth and Development of the KwaZulu-Natal South Coast Region
Beekman Group was Highest Rated in:
- Property Management Companies in the KwaZulu-Natal South Coast Region
- Companies/Institutions Doing Most to Protect the Environment in the KwaZulu-Natal South Coast Region
- Companies/Institutions Demonstrating Exceptional Managerial and Corporate Governance Qualities Over the Past 12 Months
- Companies/Institutions Doing Most to Promote Arts and Culture in the KwaZulu-Natal South Coast Region
- Companies/Institutions Doing Most to Enhance the Interests of Women in the KwaZulu-Natal South Coast Region
This recognition across such a broad range of categories speaks to our unique approach to business. We’re proud to combine performance with purpose at every level of our organisation.
The PMR.africa Awards are based on independent research and peer perception, with 105 respondents – including CEOs, managing directors, business owners, and regional leaders – surveyed across the KwaZulu-Natal South Coast.
These awards aren’t won through marketing or submissions. They’re earned through real-world interactions, trust and our industry reputation. That makes this achievement especially meaningful to us.
According to PMR.africa CEO Johan Hattingh, the purpose of these awards is not only to celebrate excellence but to set benchmarks that others aspire to. They shine a light on the people and teams who work tirelessly behind the scenes to uphold world-class standards.
“As an organisation, we believe in creating a culture of gratitude,” Hattingh shared. “Gratitude towards colleagues, clients and communities. These awards are an opportunity to recognise the people who make companies great and to inspire others to follow that example.”
To be recognised in this way confirms that the work we’re doing is not only consistent but also visible and valued across the province.
The People Behind the Recognition
Every achievement begins with our people. Across our resorts, support centres, member services, finance, marketing, development and beyond, our teams show up every day with a clear focus: to deliver meaningful value and care-driven experiences.
Whether helping a family plan their next holiday, managing key accounts, or supporting resort operations, each person plays a vital role in bringing the Beekman standard to life.
One of the most meaningful acknowledgements was the award for Demonstrating Exceptional Managerial and Corporate Governance. Jenny Chetty, our Member Services Manager, who proudly represented the Beekman Group at the awards ceremony, shared her perspective:
“This award is a true reflection of the people behind the Beekman Group. It represents our combined effort, our shared values, and the pride we take in every interaction. We are not here to just deliver a service. We are here to build relationships. That care shows, and it is deeply rewarding to see it acknowledged in this way.”
It’s this pride and sense of ownership that sets our team apart. These awards celebrate the long hours, the high standards, the willingness to grow and the shared belief that our work creates lasting value.
Working Toward Beekman’s Greater Vision
While we are proud of these awards, we know that recognition is just one part of the story. What matters most is what we do next. These accolades remind us to keep investing in our people, listening to our members and seeking out ways to innovate, grow and contribute to something greater.
To our entire team across the Beekman Group, thank you. These are your achievements. Your commitment, your mindset and your care have made this possible.
