Pros:

The pool was great, my children thoroughly enjoyed it. Golf was enjoyable for dad.

Cons:

Service at the restaurant and poolside was poor. A very nice gentleman noticed us by the pool and made up for the rest of them by giving exceptional service afterwards. Too bad it was our last night by then.

Pros:

Nice location and facilities

Cons:

Not necessarily a dislike but a suggestive recommendation to account for cultural and religious differences particularly regarding the cuisine and food. Having food options and form of preparations that account for cultural and religious differences would be a value addition to customers experience

My stay at the hotel was positive, as I prefer Sun Hotels across South Africa.
Pros:

The breakfast was satisfactory. However, after staying at many Sun hotels in South Africa, I’m accustomed to receiving a cappuccino at no extra charge, and this was my first time being billed for it, which felt unusual.
The location was advantageous due to its proximity to one of the Kruger Gates. The golf course was excellent, and the 5 km running paths were well maintained.

Cons:

Dinner options were limited, similar to the breakfast offering.
A room configured with two double beds is not suitable for a couple.

Acceptable for a short stay.
Pros:

The staff are very friendly and helpful, if you have a problem they do attend to it quickly. It has a lovely golf course and its very child friendly with lots of activities. We had problems with our beds in our rooms and they changed them quickly without an hassles.

Cons:

The food (Buffet) is really limited and very repetitive. The food is mediocre with the buffet offering's being rotated every 2nd day. Not a lot of choice and very bland. They could really work on improving the food, it is a poor reflection on the Chef. The prices for soft drinks & alcoholic beverages are exorbitant with the exception of wines being relatively priced.
The rooms are small if sharing - 2 adults, 2 children. You could easily fit in 2 x queen beds instead of 2 double beds to make it more comfortable for all a family of 4. It is advertised to share for a family of 4 so make it comfortable for the family otherwise suggest 2 rooms. Also amenities in the room are set for 2 people - if a family is checking in make sure the rooms are fitted with 4 towels, 4 glasses, 4 mugs etc.

Die Lage ist sehr gut und und auch das Frühstück und Nachtessen! Das Personal ist sehr freundlich, zuvorkommend und hilfsbereit! Im grossen und Ganzen ist es eine sehr tolle Anlage. Hervorragend für Familien mit Kindern!
Die Zimmer dürften grösser und heller sein!

Beautiful Golf course, great buffet. Rooms are quite tired, alcohol is exorbitant
Pros:

Buffet was excellent. The distance to the golf course was incorrect it is not roughly 4Km, it's walking distance and on the property.

Cons:

Markup on the alcohol was exorbitant. I've never paid so much for a tot of whiskey in my life.
Misrepresentation on fitness centre and pools. They did not have a fitness centre and there was only 1 swimming pool.
