a great shop stocking everything from
braai packs and ready meals to biscuits,
chocolate and tin foil. Next door, a
bottle store ensures you’re stocked for
sundowners.

En route to Valley of Waves, a vibrant
food court awaits, complete with sweet
shops, a Lego store and a massive
arcade. We inevitably got stuck here,

and dad battling it out on Terminator,

For the seriously energetic, there

coffee shop on site, it’s a great way to

poolside. Bingo was a hot favourite, and
the vibrant atmosphere continued all
day.
