Best Holiday Resort in South Africa
Sun City Resort
History was made in 1979 when Sun City was opened in the North West to become the best holiday resort in South Africa, and for good reason.
Home to the Valley of Waves and sprawled along the border of the Pilanesberg National Park, Sun City Resort enjoys the fine distinction of being the only surf-and-safari destination within a two-hour drive of landlocked Johannesburg. Whether you’re looking for a romantic stay with your partner, a fun weekend getaway with friends or a North West holiday with the whole family, Sun City Resort has it all.
Access to Sun City Resort will continue to only be granted to Hotel and Sun Vacation Club residents only, existing MVG members, guests with confirmed golf bookings and guests that have prepurchased Valley of Waves Day Visitor Tickets.
Day Visitor tickets can be purchased on the day and are available from TicketPro. Limited tickets are available daily. Tickets cannot be purchased at the resort.
