Taking its name from the ancient alkaline volcano upon which it is built, Kwa Maritane, meaning Place of the Rock, sits within the Pilanesberg National Park, eight kilometers from Sun City. The 90 air conditioned rooms feature dark wood and bamboo furnishings with large windows providing expansive views of the African plains. Amenities including cable television, Internet access and direct dial telephones keep guests connected to the outside world.
Guests enjoy half board accommodation with breakfast and dinner included. Informal dining can be had in the restaurant with its exposed timber beams, or around an open fire beneath the night sky. Two swimming pools surrounded by palm trees ensure it is not just the hippos that get to cool off from the midday sun. Though sighting the Big Five across the African plains might be ample excitement for most guests, urban pleasure seekers can really go to town with a myriad of amusements including spas, golf, and casinos eight kilometers away at Sun City. The hotel can provide transfers to and from the hotel upon request. Pilanesberg airport is 2 kilometers (1 mile) distance.
