Santé means "health," and it offers guests a multi-phase approach to wellness. With three healing centers under one roof, the Health Optimizing Royal Retreat provides an extensive health check. This leads to a personalized treatment plan, supported by specialists, doctors, and therapists. The Day Spa offers complementary treatments focusing on hydrotherapy, unique methodologies, and signature treatments to support your treatment plan and wellness goals, whether for rejuvenation, relaxation, healthy aging, or detoxing. The Bio-Energy Centre harnesses the healing properties of magnetic fields, color, light, and crystals to restore balance. Through energetic interventions using electromagnetic waves, the body is stimulated to heal itself. A well-functioning body neutralizes harmful external influences, ensuring they don’t disrupt health or optimal bodily function. Together, the three centers deliver a transformative wellness experience for anyone looking to achieve a specific goal. The resort also features a heated indoor pool and an outdoor pool. In addition to the three centers, there is a fully equipped fitness area with cardio equipment, free weights, and Pilates Reformers.

Passport and Visa
Travelers planning a trip to South Africa may require a visa, depending on their nationality. Many countries, including the EU, UK, and USA, allow visa-free travel for tourism purposes for up to 90 days. However, it's essential to check the latest entry requirements with the South African embassy or consulate in your country before traveling. Ensure your passport is valid for at least six months beyond your intended stay and has at least two blank pages for entry stamps. If you're visiting for business, extended stays, or other purposes, you may need a specific visa type. Processing times vary, so apply well in advance of your departure date.
Health Information for Travellers
Before traveling to South Africa, it’s essential to ensure you’re up-to-date on routine vaccinations like MMR (measles, mumps, rubella), polio, tetanus, and diphtheria, as part of standard immunization schedules in most countries. Additionally, several vaccinations are recommended for travelers, depending on your activities and the regions you plan to visit. Hepatitis A and Typhoid vaccinations are advised for most travelers, particularly if you’ll be consuming food or water outside major hotels or urban areas. Hepatitis B is also recommended for travelers who may have medical procedures. If you’re arriving from a country where Yellow Fever is endemic, South Africa requires proof of vaccination. Even travelers transiting through such countries for more than 12 hours may need to present a valid Yellow Fever vaccination certificate upon arrival. For those visiting areas like Kruger National Park or parts of Limpopo, Mpumalanga, or KwaZulu-Natal, malaria precautions are crucial. While urban areas are malaria-free, these regions require preventive measures such as wearing insect repellent with DEET, sleeping under mosquito nets, and consulting your doctor about anti-malarial medication. By taking these precautions and consulting a travel clinic well in advance of your departure, you can ensure a safe and healthy trip to South Africa.
