These awards recognise and reward tourism players and businesses who work passionately and with pride to deliver a world class product and service and whose delivery grows South Africa’s global destination competitiveness. Furthermore, they give industry role players an opportunity to learn from each other and share ideas.

The park was nominated in the following categories:

• Golden Gate Hotel and Chalets as winner in the three-star Hotel category
• Golden Gate Hotel and Chalets as a finalist in the three-star Self-catering Exclusive category
• Golden Gate Hotel Conference Centre as a finalist in the MESE category
• Golden Gate Highlands National Park Mountain Retreat as winner in the three-star Self-catering Exclusive category
• Golden Gate Highlands National Park Basotho Cultural Village as a finalist in the three-star Self-catering Exclusive category

Out of the above, they walked away as winners in the categories of Hotel, three-star and Self-catering Exclusive; three-star in the Province and received finalist awards in the other categories.

The two categories will compete with winners from other provinces at the national Lilizela Awards to be held in October.
