Borrowing its name from the jubilant French salutation, "a votre santé!"—to good health!—the simplicity and splendor of Santé Hotel, Resort & Spa is a nod to the healing power of focusing on oneself, and the ideal setting to begin a journey of rejuvenation and relaxation. Nestled between the majestic Simonsberg Mountains on a stunning 160 hectare wine estate in the Paarl/Franschhoek Valley, Santé Hotel, Resort & Spa—a Preferred Boutique property, part of the Preferred Hotel Group—lives up to its moniker as "the star of the winelands."

Review We had a 6 wonderful nights stay at the Sante, it was truly a relaxing luxurious experience. We were warmly welcomed and shown the extensive facilities of the hotel and spa. The Room The room was huge with luxurious finishes and a wonderful ambience. I have never seen a bigger shower and the freestanding bath was an experience, looking out on the fabulous views. The bed was extremely comfortable and the cleanliness, to the highest of standards. I can’t really think of anything that they could improve! The Staff All of the staff that we came into contact with, from the reception to the restaurants to the spa were friendly and provided exceptional levels of professional service. They have been trained to the highest of standards and really make you feel at home. The Food The hotel is gluten and dairy free, with all the food being fresh and natural. They have set menus that change everyday for each meal. The food was always to a particularly high standard, as was the freshness of ingredients. The breakfast was particularly inviting! The Facilities The hotel has wonderful facilities, including two pools (with amazing views) and a spa with all the services you could require. We used the spa a lot and every treatment we had was excellent. We would highly recommend anyone visiting the area to stay at the Sante. We are already planning our next trip back!

One of my worst hotel experiences ever. My expensive Boss suit was ruined by their housekeeping service using a hot iron on it and then refusing to compensate me for it, despite their house manager accepting liability. Due to their incompetence, the wedding of my niece was spoilt for me. Would never stay there again and would never recommend anyone else to either.

Sante is a truly remarkable wellness retreat in the Winelands. From arrival to departure, we embarked on a short wellness journey that captivated us feeling completely spiritually, mentally and physically rejuvenated, re energized and relaxed. We stayed in a lovely luxurious suite overlooking the courtyard. The views all round were magnificent. With an abundance of wellness programs, spa treatments and complimentary facilities, one is spoilt for choice. The cuisine was exceptional and extremely healthy. The service was outstanding. Gardens, outdoor and indoor pool areas and gym all spaciously situated on the Estate surrounded by immaculate gardens and beautiful mountains. What a memorable experience. I highly recommend this amazing retreat and am certain to return to this unique gem for complete mind, body and soul healing. Very special Thank You to Marthie, Ingrid, Graham, Charlotte and the rest of the Sante Team. Simply Exquisite!

As soon as I walked into the magnificent reception area at Sante I knew I would want to return. We had landed in Cape Town Airport in the late afternoon and we ere picked up by our driver Bev for the transfer to the retreat. A must because you will arrive already relaxed and not having to deal with the Cape Town traffic. The check in was seem less and we were not rushed to dinner even though our arrival was later in the evening. Our room was beautiful with plenty of space and an amazing view. The food was fresh and innovative and our spa treatments were so relaxing. The spa team were very flexible with our choices and extremely professional and kind. We did not visit other areas as we really needed to totally unwind and that is what we did! Everything about this outstanding retreat was just what we required and we will return one day to experience this special place again!
