Water Sports and Fun for the Whole Family at Vaal Prive Holiday Resort

Vaal Prive Holiday Resort

The Vaal Dam is the quintessential inland water destination and Vaal Prive Holiday Resort is the place to be.    

An hour’s drive from Johannesburg, Vaal Prive Holiday Resort is situated on the banks of the Vaal dam.

With twenty-four hour security service, this luxury self-catering resort is more than a holiday destination; it is an activity hub and lifestyle centre.

Water Sports and Activities at Vaal Prive Holiday Resort

The variety of water sports on offer will surpass all expectations and satisfy every water lover.

Kayaking, sailing, speed boating, skiing, aqua tubing, water boarding, parasailing, speed boating and a host of other activities can be enjoyed at this resort in the Free State.

All water sport bookings may be made at reception where WiFi is also available.

Indoor activities at the club house include DSTV, table tennis, pool tables, board games and a kid’s entertainment area, as well as a fully equipped gym.

Great places for group get togethers are the picnic and braai areas and the pool.

The hot tub and bar on the deck overlooking the dam is a great place to relax and enjoy a sundowner as you watch a magnificent sunset.

A Boat Cruise on the Vaal Dam

The Vaal Prive Boat Cruise is undoubtedly the best way to experience the majesty of the Vaal Dam.

Cruises are tailor made to meet your requirements, a party cruise with loud music or a peaceful cruise to savour the breeze and enjoy the views. You will be in the safe and experienced hands of a SAMSA approved skipper.

 A boat cruise is a great way to celebrate a special event or function in your own private venue on the water.

Cruises generally last about three hours and guests are encouraged to bring their own cooler box and snacks.  There are braai facilities on board, so you can bring your braai meat as well. 

Should you need a bit of relaxation after all the activity, there are restaurants and spa establishments nearby to indulge you.

Luxury Self-Catering Accommodation

The double storey villas have three bedrooms and two bathrooms.  Each of these units can sleep up to eight people. One and two bedroom options are also available.

Each unit has a fully equipped kitchen, and the open plan living area is perfectly designed for families and groups.

All units have a 180 degree view of the dam and are serviced daily.

About us

Actually, Home Food and Travel offers a lot more than just reviews of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities.  We also visit great destinations, receive advice from interior designers and stop to smell the roses and taste the coffee.

Our team of journalists are seasoned travels and love visiting the myriad of exciting places around South Africa.  Whether it is off the beaten track or in the heart of the top attractions of the country, we’ll be there,

Home Food and Travel advice on finding the right accommodation

So what is the right accommodation?  Well more often than not, it’s your travel budget that dictates the type of accommodation that you choose. 

Expensive is not always better.  Our team at Home Food and Travel will tell you that they have camped in areas with limited ablutions and had a wonderful holiday.  They have also spent a night in a five star hotel only to be disappointed because their expectations exceeded the experience.

The reason for your travels will also affect your choice.  A business trip requires different amenities to a beach holiday. 

Our articles, reviews and experiences can certainly help you make your decision.

Restaurants with a good mix of service, food and ambiance

To my mind a great restaurant offers three things – excellent service, great food and a wonderful ambiance.  Of these, service is the most important. 

No matter that the food is delicious and the setting delightful, poor service can ruin the occasion.  However, great service combined with mediocre meal and a plane jane restaurant can still be a pleasant night out.

We’ve eaten in restaurants that are really dirty but with incredible food and couldn’t help but give a rave review.  We’ve also hardly noticed what we ate because the setting was just amazing.

However, the best restaurants come with the best of service, food and ambiance.

Spas are the ultimate relaxation aid

How do you know when you have had a great spa experience?  The answer, of course, is when you doze off on the treatment table. 

Well that’s our theory anyway.  It also doesn’t take a grand location with enormous facilities for a spa to be really good

A small, personal spa that is owner run can result in the best massage you have ever experienced.  However, the grand spas in five star hotels offer unsurpassed facilities in an environment that just makes the stress in your shoulders and neck melt away before you even finish checking in.

Adventure!

You don’t have to be an adrenaline junky to enjoy an exciting experience.  In fact, what are commonly termed adventure activities usually have incredibly high safety standards and unblemished safety records.

Ziplining, bungy jumping and shark cage diving are all very safe.  It’s just that our mind tells us we are craaazzzzyyyy to be doing this.

On the road to great places of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities

If you’re driving, be safe and make use of all the wonderful farm stalls that populate South Africa’s open roads.

If you overhear somebody asking a lot of questions or see someone taking photos of empty bedrooms chances are it’s one of our Home Food and Travel team members.

We’re out looking or those great places of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities.

See you on the road!
