Why Sibaya is the Perfect Place for Girl Time
We’ve all got our best friends, the ones who know us best and can sing the song in our hearts, even when we’ve forgotten the words or melody ourselves. Spending quality time with your best friend restores your soul and helps all of us process and reflect upon our lives’ unique journeys. There’s something so incredibly special about spending girl time with the person who probably knows you better than anyone else.
And, there’s no better place to spend it than at Sibaya Casino and Entertainment Complex. Set in the heart of KwaZulu-Natal, just a few minutes away from King Shaka International Airport, Sibaya is a magical palace-like establishment with views of rolling hills and the Indian Ocean.
Far from the bustle of the city centre, Sibaya is one of the top hotels in Durban and the perfect place to escape to with your best friend for a little quiet time and a spot of pampering. As you explore this magnificent gaming and entertainment complex, you’ll find traditional Zulu architecture seamlessly combined with more modern lines, giving guests a luxurious yet homely base from which to explore Durban, or enjoy the sights and sounds that Sibaya has on offer.
Start your girls’ day out with relaxing treatments at Sibaya’s Mangwanani Spa. Book yourselves in for a full or half-day package, or let the Spa’s highly trained therapists select spectacular treatments for you. There’s even a moonlight evening and a hot summer evening package for you to enjoy, if you’d prefer to leave the pampering until the end of your day. Mangwanani’s range of treatments and products are rooted in authentically African therapies, with natural ingredients like African Orange Blossom forming the basis for luxurious body butters, invigorating scrubs and nourishing lotions.
Once you’ve whiled away the time being treated like royalty at Mangwanani Spa, catch up over a cocktail and delicious dinner at one of Sibaya’s decadent restaurants.
You’ll find a more homely ambience at Sondela Tavern and Restaurant, where you can enjoy traditional South African cuisine, with an elegant twist. Shisa Nyama, legendary Durban Bunny Chows and more make their way to your plate as you’re seated around the central fireplace. But, at Africa 2 Asia, or A2A as its more commonly known, you’ll be able to savour foods from across the globe, with beautiful buffets that house more than one hundred fantastic dishes.
After a hearty dinner and much laughter with your best friend, it’s time to be entertained!
Not just your average bar, Krakatoa is a three-tier show bar that puts on one heck of a show! With revues, cabaret shows, comedy acts and live bands making a regular appearance on the Krakatoa stage, you can get your groove on all night long! Or, if you’d prefer to take in a show, pop in to the IZulu Theatre. The distinctive thatched dome that encompasses the theatre, plays host to a number of locally produced theatrical acts and shows but, there are also regular visits by international productions.
After a long and lovely day of being reminded why you and your best friend are as close as you are, it’s time to retire to your luxurious room at Sibaya, or head home on the freeway. Either way, you’re bound to have had an incredible girls’ day out.
