Meropa Casino & Entertainment World

PPart of the well-established Sun International group, the Meropa Casino & Entertainment World boasts a pleasant and spacious hotel set in landscaped gardens. The decor here is Afro-chic – tall pots, enormous pillars, archways and domed roofs.

Bring the kids for an outing. Children really love the Meropa Casino & Entertainment World's Wild World outdoor area, with WildThingZ, the definite highlight.

The first of its kind on the continent, this incredible multi-species enclosure contains a bird and reptile park as well as a butterfly park and insectarium.

VViv Bristow, a wildlife expert and animal trainer for Hollywood movies, together with Trevor Oertel, a raptor expert, created WildThingZ. It really is a fun-filled activity for kids and adults alike – you'll get to see everything from the daintiest, prettiest butterflies to the scariest-looking snakes, spiders and scorpions. If you're in the mood for music, head for Meropa's Jembe Tavern, a cosmopolitan club that hosts live comedy, cabaret and music.

Meropa's small but stylish casino is run with smart card technology. Smart cards replace coins, providing you with hours of hassle-free fun. There are 17 table games including roulette and blackjack, and hundreds of slot machines, including the ever-popular Dream Machine and Poker Magic, as well as a Poker Lounge.  And if you need some relaxation, visit the Mangwanani Day Spa, or discover local culture at the Cultural Village.
