South Africa isn't the most well-known destination in the world for spa retreats but there are a couple of great options for those looking for a detox in South Africa or to combine a South Africa spa break with a safari or even a beach holiday in the Indian Ocean.

Karkloof Safari Spa is something of a well-kept secret, a luxury South Africa spa and wellness retreat offering a mix of relaxation, wellness packages and some game viewing in Kwa-Zulu Natal. We think it's a great combination with a stay at the Oyster Box in Durban, a Kruger safari or a beach extension in Mauritius.

In the West, Bushman's Kloof is an idyllic retreat in the Northern Cape and a great destination to recharge and combine with a stay in Cape Town and the Winelands.
