Because Sun cCty seemed like a good idea, I decided to go ahead and book at the Cascades instead, We booked for three nights and unfortunately could only leave on... More

I know the title doesn't make it sound fantastic. However, I was having trouble coming up with an accurate description. The positives are: The room I had 226 was large, wonderful patio that leads into a beautiful garden, bathroom had a separate shower, and walk-in closet. I would give the room a 8.5 out of 10 (10 being a Four... More

Our family stayed for two nights at the Cascades during our tour of south Africa in the winters of May 2013. We had booked two rooms on the second floor. The rooms are spacious with an extra bed for an adult or two kids. It has a huge tub bathroom. The hotel offered us welcome drinks and choclates on arrival.... More

Wonderful hotel with excellent breakfast, spacious and comfortable room. The pools are a must, with monkeys walking around. It has a mini bird sanctuary and a huge garden to walk or just relax. The entertainment center has great restaurants, theaters, and shops. Make sure to visit the maze (and get your free beer!) and also the crocodile sancturary. Other must... More

It was our fourth stay here and once again we had an enjoyable time. Central location, easy to reach Valley of Waves, Entertainment Centre and walking trails. There is a heated pool at the hotel which is great during winter.

The Cascades is overall like Sun City : very expensive, low value/money, artificial, oldish. The hotel has not been renovated for years, rates are too high, staff is not trained properly and unhappy to work there. TV offer is poor, no HD, and quality of image is low low low definition. Room staff is erratic, wandering at night in the... More

Sun City, as a whole, is a flat and limited experience that will leave anyone who has been to Vegas or even So Lake Tahoe quite disappointed. A novelty when it opened decades ago, I didnt recognize the place on my return because it had added more resorts but that isnt necessarily a good thing. The Cascades is a step... More

We were a part of a large group, and the hotel and facilities were very good, however the staff were generally rude, unhelpful and not very effective. It didn't happen to me, but some of the people in the group had left small amounts of money in the room and it was stolen, restaurants and surrounding areas were very good.
