It was safe, clean and offered a great breakfast. The pool area was clean and relaxing. Staff were polite and efficient. The rooms need updating. I suggest painting a lighter colour.

Trip to SA - Southern Sun first time visit
The staff at the hotel was amazing. Very friendly and helpful and always available. They followed up and was just terrific. Cannot say enough good things about them. Breakfast was amazing and catered to everyone. Transport to and from airport every 15 minutes via shuttle with competent, friendly drivers. Safety is not an issue moving from the airport to the hotel. Just loved our stay here and will definitely use the hotel again for future trips.
