GENERAL COMMENTS ABOUT THE RESORT
Sondela is conveniently situated an easy 90 minutes drive from
Johannesburg. This pristine resort offers superb accommodation in
choice self-catering chalets, rustic bush camps and an awarding winning
caravan park.
Our Tambuki campsite is the camp of choice for rugged adventurers with
4 x 4 vehicles who like to be as close to nature as possible.
This unique Gold Crown resort, rated 4-star self-catering by SATOUR, is
renowned for its warm hospitality and magnificent Bushveld setting and is
a must for every fun-loving family.
The Sondela Wildlife Centre offers guests an unforgettable experience
with wildlife. You will hear fascinating information about the caring for, and
medical treatment of, wildlife that will deepen your understanding of the
resident animals.
Kids will enjoy the Animal Farm with milking of cows and feeding of sheep,
a dream tree house and jungle gym. All-day activities around the
Farmyard heated pool will keep them entertained for hours.
Join our Executive Chef and his trainees at Piccinini's Boma for a
Cooking Demonstration and Food Tasting with Wine.
Piccinini's Bistro, offering scrumptious food and pub facilities is not to be
missed.
Home-cooked meals may be delivered to your place of residence on the
resort upon request.
Fun Chef Accommodation
The Moselesele Tent Camp offers an up-market safari experience and guests will be
spoiled from the time of their arrival, to their time of departure by the Camp Host and
Camp Chef, who is available to prepare all your meals.
With the introduction of our FunChef Accommodation we have finally provided the
entire family with a real holiday experience, including Mom. Besides providing all the
great facilities that we have come to expect from RCI resorts, our FunChef
Accommodation will spoil you with a special focus on service, giving you more time for
lazing away and relaxation. This unique semi-self-catering option means that while
you can enjoy the usual benefits of self-catering, you can also choose to either have
your meals prepared for you by our private chef or, should the fancy grab you, cook
yourself in our fully equipped kitchen.
