Santé Private Villa: A Luxurious Wellness Retreat in Paarl

You’ll find La Bella Vita Wine Estate off a quiet dust road between Paarl and Franschhoek, which is home to Santé Wellness Retreat & Spa – a one-of-a-kind haven focused on holistic health. In addition to this scenic villa, the estate is also home to a number of retreat suites so you can make the most of the beautiful surroundings and the spa offerings.

A premium member of Healing Hotels of The World (getaways for those who want a healthy, healing break with all the creature comforts), the retreat is owned by Graham and Ingrid Hindle who have created a world-class home-from-home – where everything from the bed linen in the suites to the products used in the spa, has been carefully considered to reflect a holistic, sustainable ethos.

The lodgings

No retreat would be complete without a luxurious pillow on which to rest your head, and Santé prides itself on giving its guests a cosseted home experience. In addition to 30 suites the luxurious private villa is the newest of the accommodation offerings – available to rent on an exclusive-use, or per-room basis.

  The on-site restaurant, Nourish (where breakfast is served each morning), offers guests wonderful, nourishing food that tastes as good as it looks. Executive chef Terrence Ford (former head chef of African Pride Crystal Towers Hotel) has created mouth-watering dishes free of sugar, dairy, gluten, preservatives, colourants and additives – yet you’d never believe it.

  A weekend (or week!) at Santé Private Villa is the perfect antidote to weary city dwellers, looking for the best kind of R&R.
