Our stay at The Kingdom Resort was absolutely fantastic! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome and at ease. The resort is beautifully maintained, with lush gardens, a relaxing atmosphere, and plenty of space to unwind. The accommodation was spotless, modern, and very comfortable — everything we needed for a relaxing holiday. We especially loved the pool area and the splash zone for kids, which kept the whole family entertained. The on-site restaurant served delicious meals, and the service was always friendly and efficient. One of the best parts of staying here is the location — just a short drive from Pilanesberg National Park and Sun City. It was the perfect base for both safari adventures and family fun. Overall, The Kingdom Resort exceeded our expectations. Whether you’re traveling as a couple, a family, or with friends, it’s a wonderful place to stay. We will definitely be returning on our next trip to South Africa!

It was fine to stay there, but the bar closes at 9 and there is only really one restaurant, so you can't do much. If you're booking here to save money on staying at Sun City, yet still go there each day, what you save is cancelled out by how much it costs to get in, so for convenience just pay more and stay at Sun City itself (last shuttle back was 10.30 so had a time limit). The staff were great and the rooms were clean, but it's just a lot of hassle commuting and not getting Sun City resident benefits automatically.

Great place to take kids. Facilities were maintained and perfect for our stay. Office staff were helpful. Workers at the rock wall and trampolines seemed unwilling to perform their assigned tasks. Pool was being cleaned on on Sunday morning until 9am although the swimming pool was intended to be available from 7am, many families were waiting.

I was not happy with my booking and I had to top up last minute while I was at the venue. I booked a king bed and specified that we 3 meaning myself, husband and my 11 months baby. The room had a Gas bottle inside the room and my baby got sinuses. I called Hotels. com but they did not help at all so we had to top up with more money. I had a black birthday yesterday because of that.

Located near Pilanesberg National Park and Sun City, The Kingdom Resort offers spacious rooms and a wide range of activities at affordable rates. Guests can relax by the pool, enjoy mini-golf, or book exciting game drives through Leap Adventures right on-site. The resort is perfect for families or couples seeking both comfort and adventure without overspending. While the accommodation and amenities impress, the limited dining options leave room for improvement. Overall, it’s an excellent value-for-money stay with plenty to do and explore — a great base for experiencing the beauty and wildlife of Pilanesberg.

The park is conveniently located near to the Pilansberg National Park gates. Grounds are family friendly and offer lots of activities for the kids. Staff were friendly and the rooms were very nice. We wanted to conduct guided night drives into the park but there was no offerings with the resort and staff were unable to direct us as to the best way to book something. We ended up talking directly with the Pilansberg National Park staff directly to book a drive.
