Categories

Cleanliness
9
Generally praised — multiple guests said rooms and property were very clean ('cleanliness was awesome'), though one report mentioned a spill with no mop/cloth available.
Service
8.9
Staff frequently described as friendly and helpful (restaurant staff, reception, gate security); some service gaps noted (poor communication during a water outage, lack of in-room landline/phone).
Location
9.4
Strong positive: repeatedly highlighted proximity to Pilanesberg/Sun City and convenient resort access, terraces and views praised.
Room Quality
8.4
Rooms described as spacious, comfortable with private patios/en-suites and good decor; some issues reported (leaking bath in a main suite, occasional TV problems, card access inconvenience within villas).
Amenities
8.2
Wide range of family-friendly amenities (pools, warm pool, water slide, trampoline) and updated facilities; negatives include some cold pools in winter, limited shop supplies, no microwave in rooms and lack of certain in-room items.
Value for Money
8
Mixed: several guests recommended the hotel for value, but some felt on-site dining (e.g., Acacia) was expensive or that buffet-only options limited cheaper meal choices.
Food and Beverage
7.2
Most mixed-to-negative: buffet received both praise and criticism (some called it horrible), limited halal options, no snacks after 18:00 in bar, and some guests wanted ordering/menu alternatives to buffets.
Overall Experience
9.7
Overall very positive stays reported ('lovely', 'awesome', 'stunning') with highlights being facilities, family activities and friendly staff; recurring minor issues did not outweigh generally strong experiences.

No WIFI
Pros:

The courtesy of the Chef 10/10, he was friendly explained everything that he cooked thoroughly his dinner was nice the custard was a 10/10. The staff at Acacia their service is 10/10 wish they could employ some to the reception area as people working at the reception seem tired. The place has a heated pool and daily activity programme 👌

Cons:

Room 74B the WIFI didn't work throughout the stay, we reported it but it was never fixed. The facility has limited activities unlike Suncity. Breakfast wasn't that great, it's just basic English breakfast.
