And the location! Overlooking the Atlas Mountains from one of Africa’s most beautiful cities, this Marrakech spa has it all. Unwind in a lux Moroccan hammam or go for one of their tailor-made treatments.
Kaya Spa & Studio
A boutique hotel in Nairobi’s swanky Village Market, the Kaya Spa & Studio at Tribe Hotel is a dream destination. In fact, it was named by Conde Nast Traveller as “One of the Hottest Urban Retreats in the World.”
This sophisticated and glam spa is a jewel in the midst of an urban jungle. Check out their one-of-a-kind Kaya Massage or the famous Kenya Gold Coffee Detox Body Polish.
Djibouti Palace Kempinski Spa
With a perfect location on the beach between the Red Sea and the Indian Ocean, the Djibouti Palace Kempinski Spa is an oasis of tranquillity. With Arabian and African inspirations, this is one of the most beautiful properties in Eastern Africa. Go for treatment then spend the afternoon floating in the infinity pool.
The Spa at The Twelve Apostles
Cape Town has some first class spas and hotels, but nothing compares to the award-winning The Spa at The Twelve Apostles! While the hotel alone makes it worth the trip, the spa is the real treasure here. A holistic luxury spa, they combine ancient traditional techniques with modern expertise.
Relax in their outdoor mountain gazebos, hydrotherapy pools, and tranquillity lounge while their ultra lux treatments transport you to another world.
