WHEN Ken Sharpe, WestProp Holdings Chief Executive Officer, envisioned Millennium Heights as a lifestyle residential enclave where innovation, community, and opportunity converge, he never imagined the estate would organically develop into an Airbnb hub.<\/p>\n

Today, that vision is blossoming into something remarkable: a new wave of entrepreneurs emerging from within the estate itself. The live, work, shop and play themed estate is just proving itself as a income generating project for investors.<\/p>\n

Residents who invested in Millennium Heights apartments are discovering that their homes can be more than just living spaces. By converting their units into Airbnb rentals, they are tapping into Harare\u2019s growing demand for short-term accommodation. What began as a lifestyle investment is now evolving into a business opportunity \u2013 transforming ordinary homeowners into hoteliers, hosts, and hostesses.<\/p>\n

Sales executive, Shantel Magodo, says WestProp is the new economic driver in town.<\/p>\n

\u201cResidents are curating unique guest experiences, blending Zimbabwean hospitality with modern convenience. The company is ushering Zimbabweans into a new world of hospitality entrepreneurship. It is truly an honour to be part of that movement,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n

A recent visit to the apartments showed that the apartments are being run like boutique hotels, complete with personalised services and curated interiors.<\/p>\n

With the introduction of planned amenities such as swimming pools, paddle ball, gyms and landscaped gardens, the estate will give the new entrepreneurs a competitive edge.<\/p>\n

When asked for\u00a0a\u00a0comment, Sharpe confirmed the organic shift.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis entrepreneurial shift is not only empowering residents financially but also contributing to Harare\u2019s tourism and hospitality ecosystem. Guests staying at Millennium Heights experience the vibrancy of WestProp\u2019s lifestyle developments, while residents enjoy steady income streams and the pride of running their own ventures\u201d.<\/p>\n

WestProp has always championed sustainable urban evolution by creating spaces where people do not just live, but thrive. Millennium Heights is now a living case study of how lifestyle estates can incubate entrepreneurship. By fostering an environment where residents can innovate, WestProp is cultivating a new generation of business-minded individuals who are redefining hospitality in Zimbabwe.<\/p>\n
