When you hear “inn,” you might picture a cosy place to stay for the night — a place to rest your head before you continue on your road trip. But with LottoStar’s Wealth Inn, it’s quite the opposite. Here, luxury checks in with just a spin of the slots.

Inspired by the opulence of our Wealth Inn Slot Game, we’re taking a tour through South Africa’s most glamorous escapes. Think sky-high suites, private villas, vineyard hideaways, and oceanfront sanctuaries.

The Silo Hotel, Cape Town – Where Art Meets Altitude


Towering above the V&A Waterfront, The Silo Hotel turns an old grain silo into a glass-and-steel masterpiece. Inside, it’s all velvet, art and natural light — with Table Mountain peaking from every angle of the hotel room. Whether you’re sipping champagne by your private plunge pool or dining at The Granary Café, The Silo whispers luxury in every detail.


Singita Lebombo Lodge, Kruger National Park – Untamed Opulence


The wild meets refined at Singita Lebombo, carved into the cliffs of the N’wanetsi River. Think of a sanctuary of glass walls and sweeping views of the cliffs and river. Expect candlelit dinners under starlit skies, elephants on the horizon and interiors that redefine “safari chic.” It’s the kind of place where nature and indulgence collide.


Babylonstoren, Franschhoek – A Harvest of Harmony


In the heart of the Cape Winelands, Babylonstoren proves that simplicity can be the ultimate luxury. Wander through orchards, sip wines produced at the estate and dine on farm-to-fork meals, surrounded by blooming gardens. It’s a retreat for those who find wealth in stillness and slow living.


Morukuru Ocean House, De Hoop Nature Reserve – Private, Perfect, Priceless


Some places are made to be shared — but not this one. At Morukuru Ocean House, the entire villa is yours: chef, staff and sweeping ocean views included. Wake to the sound of whales, explore the golden dunes and end your evenings around a firepit under infinite stars.


The Oyster Box, Umhlanga – Timeless Coastal Glamour


Perched beside the Indian Ocean, The Oyster Box is where elegance meets ease. Between the palm-framed pool, ocean-view suites and friendly staff to cater to your needs, treating you like that main character that you are. You can look forward to their famous curry buffet – a sensory feast of curries from around the world.


From vineyards to villas, these South African gems remind us that true wealth isn’t measured by money — it’s found in rare experiences, exquisite moments, and the feeling of being completely at ease.

Check into LottoStar’s Wealth Inn, where luxury meets fortune. Spin the slots for a chance to win up to R30 Million — your ticket to a well-deserved escape!

Flex your bets with Capitec Flexi Voucher 

Picture this: you’re marrying your ex (again), taking the dog for a walk between the ceremony and the reception, when you discover a lottery ticket tucked away in your pocket for years. Sounds like a scene straight out of a rom-com, right? This actually happened.

Saying “I do” is nerve-wrecking enough – especially for the second time. Now add remarrying your ex and taking the dog for a stroll between the ceremony and reception. In the middle of it all, he reached into his pocket and found a life-changing lottery ticket that had been there for years. Carrying that crumpled ticket throughout the reception must have been tense. When he finally checked it, it was worth £1 Million (around R23 Million).

Safe to say his bride forgave him for disappearing on their wedding day, especially since she was now off to Venice for their honeymoon. Talk about getting lucky twice!

You know who else can get lucky? You! Take a spin on LottoStar’s very own 

 – you could win payouts of up to R10 Million, instantly!

Welcome to LottoStar - Your World of Live Games 

They say love is about trust, honesty and sharing your fries… but what happens when a life-changing win lands in your lap? Would you march home, waving the cheque with pride OR quietly stash it away for a rainy day (and maybe a sports car)?

Believe it or not, there are plenty of stories out there about couples keeping their winnings on the 

. And honestly? Some of them are the stuff of rom-com scripts.

Secret Story #1: The Disappearing Husband


One lucky gent hit a big win and decided, instead of popping champagne with his wife, to “go for a walk.” A very long walk… to another city. For months, he lived it up in secret, until his sudden glow-up wardrobe and mysterious spa tans raised eyebrows at home. His excuse? “Work stress.”


On the flip side, a wife scratched her way into millions and thought, 

 Instead, she spent her winnings on “harmless” purchases, like upgrading her shoe closet from a neat shelf to a full-blown boutique. When her partner asked how she could suddenly “afford Louboutins,” her answer was simple: “They were on sale.” Yeah, right.

Everyday Scenarios We Can Totally Imagine:

 Suddenly switching from store-brand peanut butter to imported almond butter without explanation.

 “Oh look, honey, flights to the Maldives are basically the same price as Durban… let’s just go there instead.”

 Quietly replacing your partner’s old bakkie with a shiny new SUV and pretending it’s “a really good trade-in deal.”


At LottoStar, we get it. The thrill of that 

 has a way of making you dream up wild scenarios. Will you shout it from the rooftops, champagne in hand? Or keep it as your own delicious little secret, smirking every time your partner asks, “Where did you get the money for this?”

So, we need to know: if you hit a jackpot on LottoStar, would you spill the beans or master the art of the secret stash? Place your bets on over 800 games, you could win payouts of up to R75 Million to test if you will stay silent or spill the wins.

Hiding Winnings: Would You Spill or Stay Silent?
