The location is not next to the hotel, I think they will also come up with a shuttle service from the hotel to spa, curio shop, river front etc - next tender for operators of this might follow soon

Is the hairdresser and beautician at the SPA or are they different shops along with the souvenirs?

I see now that they are included in the SPA. Nice to have it all together

So 148-odd people out of maybe a million Kruger visitors responded they would be interested in a spa, now it's fine?
Wonder what this balderdash survey cost!

I don't know. After a day of sitting in traffic jams, looking at all the litter, and watching Leopards get run over by OSVs, maybe an Amarula emulsion or a Hippo-turd mudbath would be just the ticket!

This in yesterday's Lowvelder:
Deadline is tomorrow, so somehow if you saw the tender in this paper, you must have made up your mind to apply within less than 24 hours...and be ready for a site visit one working day later!
But afterwards SP will say the tender was advertised in the local media?
Even if it has been advertised before, there are strict rules about tender process regarding timing and submissions, and this is inappropriate.

Well, this is inappropriate and SanParks can't use that ad as an excuse for having people given time to apply...
Because 24 hours is by far not enough time

Can almost bet somehow that someone has been appointed already,.!!!
All they are concerned about is getting the admin in line to suite!!!!
