A right royal welcome awaits every guest at the Palace of the Lost City at Sun City. Behind a fountain of bronze buck, caught in mid-leap as they free the outstretched claws of cheetah, lies a soaring, reception atrium with a hand-frescoed dome, six storeys high.

From here, guests experience the kind of memorable courtesy, attention and luxury which is unique in Africa.

Faux stone columns of bamboo rest on elephant's feet, painted leopards peer through foliage above the hand carved chairs and magnificently laid tables at the Villa del Palazzo.
