- Boardwalk’s New General Manager Remembers the Casino Opening
Boardwalk Hotel & Casino has announced that Sisulu Madondo has been appointed as the new General Manager from 1 March 2026.
The seasoned gaming and hospitality executive replaces Tati Tsunke who has re-joined his family in Johannesburg.
Madondo began his 26-year career in gaming and hospitality as a trainee gaming technician at Sun International’s Morula Sun in the North West Province. Since then he has gained extensive experience that includes managing the Peermont Group’s Frontier Inn and Casino, and its Mmabatho Palms Hotel Casino Convention Resort. He returned to Sun International in 2022, first as the gaming manager at Meropa Casino in Limpopo, then as slots manager at Sibaya Casino in Durban in 2024.
Over the years he served at a number of Sun International properties including Windmill Casino in Bloemfontein, and Carnival City in Gauteng.
But Madondo is quick to point out that he is no stranger to Boardwalk, or to Gqeberha, “I was part of the team that first launched Boardwalk Casino in October 2000 so I am very excited to be back at this remarkable property in the friendly city. I lived here for 10 years before moving back to Johannesburg, and I consider my 10 years in Gqeberha to be the best years of my youth. It is such an honour and privilege for me to now be leading the Boardwalk team.
“During my early years I was focused on gaming but before I could take on the responsibility of being a general manager I had to learn the hospitality business too. I look forward to working closely with the team at Boardwalk to improving the gaming and hospitality experience for guests. I am also looking forward to personally meeting our Most Valued Guests over the next few weeks.”
In addition to holding a National Diploma in Electrical Engineering and a B.Com, Madondo also completed the Executive Development Programme in gaming at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas in 2025.
Madondo was named Best Performing General Manager by the Peermont Group in 2017, and Sun International Executive of the year in 2023.
