Sante Hotel Resort and Spa

Overview

Location: South Africa / Cape Winelands

On the outskirts of Paarl, the third oldest town in South Africa is the luxurious Santé Hotel Resort and Spa. Nestled in the Paarl/Franschoek valley, just 60 kilometres from Cape Town, the resort sits amidst vineyards on a working wine estate. Ensconced by the Simonsberg Mountains, this award winning 5-star resort and spa offers a tranquil and secluded retreat for wellness breaks, conferences, weddings, or simply rest and rejuvenation.

Luxuriously elegant rooms, gourmet cuisine, a full range of spa facilities, excellent service, and thoughtful attention to detail ensure a memorable stay.

Five mountain passes wind through orchards and vineyards into Paarl, offering majestic scenery.  The town is named after the gigantic granite outcrop, the second largest in the world, which shimmers like a pearl as a backdrop to the town. Close by lies Franschoek, the food and wine capital of South Africa. Both towns were first settled by French Huguenots in 1688.
