Father's Day

Father’s Day at Orion Hotels & Resorts

6 June 2019

Celebrating Father’s all around South Africa

Father’s Day is a day dedicated to fathers, step-fathers, brothers, uncles, mentors or any important male figure in your life. We often forget the sacrifices and contributions of our fathers and male figures have made in our lives. Father’s Day gives us the opportunity to show and express our love, adoration, and gratitude to these special people.

On Father’s Day, show these deserving men what special place they have in your life and what influence they have on you. Here are 10 reasons why you should be grateful for your Dad!

1. Dads are our role models
From the moment we are born we look up to our Father’s as little girls we dance on their feet and search for a man with the qualities He has. As a boy, your Father represents the guardian of your family.

2. Dads always give good advice
They are the best at giving advice in any situation. Their wisdom knows no bonds.

3. They are out DIY specialists
Need a new curtain rail installed or a picture frame hang up. Trust dad to have all the tools required to help you.

4. Dads help out!
On those hot days, they are there, cutting the grass, walking the dogs and just generally help out around the house.

5. Dads are adventurous
Come rain or shine, you can always trust on dad to watch that horror movie, get onto that roller-coaster or taking part in extreme sports.

6. Dads encourage us to do better
Dads always want the best for their children. They motivate us and keep us on track when reaching goals. They push us to be better, do better and eventually become better versions of ourselves

7. Our personal taxi service
No matter the hour or the day, Dad will always give us a lift. To that party, the airport or to work.

8. They protect us
From the boys who break our hearts, or the bosses who work us too hard. You can count on Dad to protect you.

9. They add Humour to our lives
Imagine a life without Dad Jokes, our lives would b so empty if it wasn’t for their contagious laughter.

10. They teach us how to drive
No one else would teach you how to drive, no one trusted you behind a wheel. But your Dad did and look at you go now, with the confidence gave you by teaching you the rules of the road.

Love them or hate them, your Dad will always be your Hero, they are special and help us to grow even when we think we can’t grow anymore! Treat them to a great weekend away at any one of our hotels, this will make them feel extra special!
