Operator- Transkei Sun International Ltd, Management Company- Sun International Management Ltd. Slots-450, Tables-15 (2011).The South African government staunchly forbided the casino the gambling in South Africa. but quietly accepted the gambling in the so-called independent homelands or Bantustans. Gambling in South Africa was only allowed in 1996.The homelands were largely rural areas set aside for blacks to have their own governments. Four of these states have been designated ''independent,'' although no other country in the world have recognized them. The Wild Coast complex was in the Transkei homeland , two-hour drive from the nearest major city, and was opened in December 1981. Holiday Inn was the major shareholder and the Transkei government had a 25 percent stake in the operating company of the Wild Coast complex and a 54 percent share of the property development company. Transkei also received a tax on gross casino revenues. When the gambling was allowed in South Africa, the Wild Coast had its license renewed, being now Sun International the owner.
