    Couldn't agree more
    I can highly recommend Eden Nature Park. They have a great restaurant serving the freshest organic foods grown on site.
    The hydroponics area is a must see site.

    Pearl Farm is nice but as you say very expensive.

    A friend of mine is a senior manager with Maxima AquaFun Resort. We had a great weekend there with ALL the family and not too expensive.
    We were allowed to bring our own foods drinks beer etc plus BBQ's.
    Pretty good entertainment.
    The usual fire-dancers too who allowed me to have-a-go ..............very hot...

    Same friend is also a manager at Crocodile Park. It's all the same owner.

    Can't recommend the crocodile sisig
