The last in a series of changes have been made to the Smoking Casino, where the repositioning of the bar provides more room for slots enthusiasts to enjoy the machines. In addition, the walls have received a fresh coat of paint, the ceiling and smoke extractors have been replaced, and the bathrooms have also been revamped.

“We constantly work towards maintaining an overall atmosphere of fun and relaxation and pride ourselves on being a destination where visitors can escape to and enjoy themselves. The R8m upgrades and the opening of Moo Bar is a testament to this vision and we would like all our visitors to have a memorable time at our resort,” says Sibusiso Thusi, the resort’s general manager.
