LIWYMI 2027
South Africa: Sun City & Cape Town
Six nights at The Cabanas in Sun City, then six nights at Lagoon Beach Hotel in Cape Town — with Table Mountain rising right in front of you.
2027 is all about South Africa — and it is an epic one. Six nights at The Cabanas in the legendary Sun City resort: pool days, casino nights, a Big Five safari on the doorstep, and two nights of LIWYMI themed parties with Studio One to remember. Then a short hop to Cape Town for six more nights at Lagoon Beach Hotel & Spa, where Table Mountain rises out of the water right in front of you. All delivered with the shared moments, meaningful travel, and like-minded company that LIWYMI is known for.
Curious what a LIWYMI evening actually feels like? Take a look at the parties our guests enjoy.
South Africa: Sun City & Cape Town
12–26 September 2027 · The Cabanas, Sun City · Lagoon Beach Hotel, Cape Town · 12 nights B&B
The Cabanas Hotel
Sun City Resort, North West Province · 13–19 September 2027 · 6 Nights B&B
Nestled within the legendary Sun City resort complex in South Africa's North West Province, The Cabanas is a hotel that captures the spirit of the destination at its most relaxed. Set around a lush tropical pool complex and surrounded by indigenous gardens, it has a distinctly African character — warm, vibrant and full of life — while sitting just a short walk from the resort's main hub, Sun Central, where the dining, entertainment and evening action are centred.
The resort's iconic Valley of Waves is moments away, and with two championship golf courses, Waterworld lake activities, tennis courts and world-class game viewing on the doorstep, there's no shortage of ways to spend your days. For the group, the Sun City leg kicks off with a welcome meeting before two LIWYMI party nights bring the resort to life — a memorable start to the South Africa adventure.
Lagoon Beach Hotel & Spa
Lagoon Beach, Cape Town · 19–26 September 2027 · 6 Nights B&B
Set on Cape Town's Atlantic coastline in Milnerton, Lagoon Beach Hotel & Spa is the group's home for the second half of the trip — and the view alone makes it worth the journey. The hotel's private beach sits right on the lagoon, with Table Mountain rising dramatically across the water in front of you: one of South Africa's most iconic panoramas, best enjoyed from a sun lounger or the outdoor pool deck.
The hotel combines a relaxed beach-resort atmosphere with a full four-star offering. A full-service spa, gym and well-regarded restaurant are all on-site — along with the kind of easy, sociable spaces that work perfectly for a group. Cape Town itself is just fifteen minutes from the door, putting the V&A Waterfront, Boulders Penguin Colony, Chapman's Peak and the Table Mountain cable car all within easy reach for days out. For the group, the Cape Town leg brings two more LIWYMI party nights before a farewell meeting sends everyone home on a high.

Safari Excursion Included
Right on Sun City's doorstep, Pilanesberg National Park is one of South Africa's finest game reserves and one of the best places in the world to spot the Big Five: Lion, African Elephant, Cape Buffalo, Rhinoceros and Leopard. Your safari is led by an expert game ranger who knows the park intimately — so you won't miss a thing. Game drives take place in purpose-built open viewing vehicles, giving everyone on board unobstructed sightlines across the bush.
This excursion is included in the package price.
The Parties
The LIWYMI parties are the heartbeat of every holiday — and South Africa 2027 delivers four of them. Two unforgettable themed nights at Sun City, and two more in Cape Town. Every party has a theme, and dressing up is very much part of the fun. Past guests will tell you the effort is always worth it — the atmosphere, the music, the laughs and the shared memories are what keep people coming back year after year.
Themes will be revealed closer to departure — but expect the unexpected. Whether this is your first LIWYMI or your fifth, you will not be disappointed.
