The Cascades Hotel is the grand old lady of South Africa’s Sun City resort. Set amidst lush tropical forests, the hotel is named after the tumbling streams that flow through the verdant gardens that surround the hotel. The lush foliage not only provides a serene setting for the hotel, but is also home to a variety of colourful tropical birds. A stroll through the forest along one of the many winding footpaths is a relaxing experience that all but erases the presence of the bustling Suncity resort. The hotel’s unique terraced shape is not only immediately identifiable but provides all rooms with a view of either the pool or the gardens. The Cascades Hotel is centrally situated within close proximity of the Entertainment Centre and the Gary Player Golf Course. Sport enthusiasts staying at the Cascades can make use of the nearby tennis and squash courts. In addition, the Gary Player Country Club is adjacent to the hotel and easily accessible for those wishing to play a round of golf or those who want to make use of the health spa. There are 243 rooms at The Cascades as well as 3 swimming pools – one Children’s pool and one heated. The pool area with its tanning island and a small private beach has a distinctly tropical feel with umbrellas, swaying palms and rocky water features. The Cascades hotel is a favourite for understated luxury and elegance.
