All great thanks! - one suggestion I'd like to make Proof of room residence print out is fine to be paper - but if you simply laminate it / get laminate machine perhaps - then people can keep it in their pocket for swimming / valley of waves access. no need for constant reprints Not sure you have coms with valley of waves management but would be good it they restricted number of people in the main wave pool - especially stag do / lots of men / some bad behaviour / groping etc. allow space for surfing without getting knocked out etc.

We loved lots about Sun city. Especially the Palace and massage there amazing, range of activities, game drive, golf clubs, restaurants, etc. But we stayed at Cascades, a bit run down and service pretty ordinary. But we did have a relaxing stay.

Won't return.

First trip to Sun City so we weren't sure what to expect. Had requested a quiet room prior to arrival. First room I was shown was the antithesis of that being near the pool (which has very loud music playing all day) and beside the housekeeping room complete with banging of garbage cans, staff chatting, etc. Requested to move and was given an old room at the very far end of the resort. Sub standard. Service was desultory at best. Bar closes at 6:30pm regardless of the number of customers. Breakfast buffet identical every day. Housekeeping did a fine job of cleaning but it took 3 requests for towel replacement when they forgot to leave clean ones. It seems most of the staff aren't particularly interested in being there. The complex itself is obviously casino-centric. There are very few activities available in the evenings besides gambling and even most bars close fairly early. The highlight was definitely golf. The 13th hole on Lost City with the crocodiles was memorable. The Gary Player course is walking only with mandatory caddies who carry the clubs (my caddy was excellent and a far superior golfer to me!)
