This article is right on time! I’m heading to South Africa in two weeks and will definitely use this list for my much needed spa day. I’ve always enjoyed the spa experience at the One & Only and may find myself here! Thanks again.
Good list but missing an absolute gem that deserves to be on this list – Karkloof Safari Spa near Pietermaritzburg.
Our flights are booked and we will be heading to South Africa for virtually all of January 2020. Next stop is the accommodation. I’d like to include some top-class spas in our itinerary. After all travelling is tiring and a girl needs to recover and be looked after. And my boyfriend quite enjoys a spa too. Has there been much change in the Top 5 in recent years? Anyone got any other suggestions?
