Looking for the ultimate family-friendly holiday in South Africa? Sun City’s beloved Sun Vacation Club: The Reserve is getting a R210-million refurbishment, and it’s set to transform one of the country’s favourite self-catering holiday destinations into a refreshed, nature-inspired escape by December 2025.
A Family Holiday Classic, Reimagined
Since opening in 1996, The Reserve has been a go-to for families wanting the convenience of self-catering accommodation in Sun City while still being close to all the resort action. With 234 units and two luxury villas, most already owned by happy families, The Reserve is proof of just how loved this timeshare holiday spot is.
Now, inspired by the success of the new Lefika Villas, The Reserve is being reimagined for the next generation of travellers who want affordable luxury, nature immersion, and family-focused comfort.
African-Inspired Interiors
The redesign, led by Blacksmith Interior Inspiration, brings the African wilderness indoors. Expect:
Savannah-inspired wallpapers and natural stone-look finishes.
Bold wildlife portraits as statement headboards.
Rich wooden furniture balanced with calming touches like white shutters.
Ambient lighting and soft blue ceilings that mimic the tranquillity of dusk.
It’s a look that blends luxury and authenticity, making each unit feel like a retreat designed for rest, relaxation, and connection to nature.
More Than Just a Place to Stay
The Reserve has always been more than just a holiday stay, it’s a home away from home for South African families. Whether it’s cooking a braai on your private patio, watching the kids enjoy the pool, or coming back after a day at the Valley of Waves, The Reserve is about making memories that last a lifetime.
As Sun International puts it, this upgrade is not just about style, it’s about commitment to quality holidays that bring families closer to nature, and each other.
Adventure at Your Doorstep
One of the best things about The Reserve is its unbeatable location. Just minutes away, you can enjoy:
Golf at world-class courses.
Thrilling water sports at Sun City’s Valley of Waves.
The fast-growing sport of padel tennis.
Endless shopping, dining, and entertainment.
A bit of nightlife and gaming fun if you’re up for it.
Why The Reserve Should Be On Your 2025 Travel Bucket List
If you’re planning a Sun City holiday, especially with family, The Reserve’s makeover promises to deliver the perfect mix of self-catering freedom, natural beauty, and access to endless adventure.
This is one for your South Africa family travel bucket list, a timeless retreat, reinvented for today’s traveller.
