Sun City in South Africa is a premier destination for golf and entertainment, ideal for clients seeking both luxury and leisure. The resort features two exceptional golf courses: the Gary Player Country Club and the Lost City Golf Course. The Gary Player Country Club is a championship-level, walking-only course and home to the Nedbank Golf Challenge, offering a challenging yet scenic experience for serious golfers. The Lost City Golf Course, with its desert-style layout and unique crocodile-inhabited water hazard at the 13th hole, provides a memorable alternative with dramatic views of the surrounding bushveld.
The Gary Player Country Club (GPCC)
Home to the prestigious Nedbank Golf Challenge (“Africa’s Major”) for decades, the GPCC is a formidable, classic parkland layout. It’s long, demanding, and unforgiving of errant shots, with strategically placed bunkers and water hazards.
The Lost City Golf Course
A stark contrast to the GPCC, the Lost City course offers a more dramatic, desert-style experience with a unique African theme. Famous for its 13th hole with a green shaped like the African continent, complete with live Nile crocodiles in the water hazards, this course is as much about the spectacle as it is about golf.
Clients can explore the Valley of Waves waterpark, dine at award-winning restaurants, or try their luck at the casino. Evening shows, cultural performances, and a luxurious spa add to the resort’s appeal. With a range of accommodation options, Sun City suits diverse travel styles and budgets. Its proximity to Pilanesberg National Park also makes it easy to combine a golf trip with a Big Five safari experience, creating a high-value, all-in-one itinerary that’s easy to sell and unforgettable for clients.
