Our read

Drakensberg Sun is a Cathkin Park resort that tells you the awkward part: it is mostly timeshare, so a room is not always free. The page counts 78 hotel rooms, 30 chalets, and 32 apartments, and hotel check-out is 10h00. Come if the mountains are the point and you will ask what is actually open. Skip it if you needed a city-hotel guarantee.

Come here for

  • Cathkin Park from a hotel room, when one is free
  • A private lake for canoeing, and the Spoilt Green Eco-Spa
  • Lakeview for the buffet, if you are in a hotel room rather than a chalet

Skip it if

  • You assumed a room is always available. The page says the resort is predominantly timeshare.
  • You wanted check-out at 11h00. Hotel check-out here is 10h00.

We’d rather send you somewhere else than send you somewhere that doesn’t suit you.

Drakensberg Sun Resort is on the R600 in the Central Drakensberg, at Cathkin Park near Winterton. The page counts 78 hotel rooms, from standard rooms to a presidential suite. It also lists 30 self-catering chalets and 32 self-catering apartments, and it says the resort is predominantly timeshare, so availability is limited. Check-out for the hotel is before 10h00, earlier than the group's city hotels. Lakeview is the buffet restaurant. The Grotto is the bar. There is a private lake for canoeing, one outdoor pool, and the Spoilt Green Eco-Spa. The phone is +27 36 468 1000. The decision is which product you are holding. A hotel room includes breakfast. A chalet or apartment is self-catering, and much of that stock belongs to owners. The page does not print a fixed nightly rate. Someone who wanted a guaranteed hotel key on a holiday weekend should ask before they assume the mountain is free. Someone who wants Cathkin Park, and will take a hotel room when one is actually open, is looking at the right gate. Reserve with the hotel. MindReach does not take the booking.
