1. The Saxon


The Saxon spa now has two branches, the first in leafy Sandhurst and its new sibling, a brighter, more expansive wellness experience in Steyn City’s Clubhouse. Tanya Lopes has been managing the Saxon spa for a decade, curating a staff of impeccable therapists and crafting a transformative treatment menu for guests. The Luxury Soul by Saxon package is a firm favourite with a full-body scrub, mud treatment and top-to-toe massage. The skincare range is purposefully limited: Dr Levy, Babor, Ling NY and the Soul by Saxon line. If you’re unsure what your skin needs, book a time and let the experts advise you. Both branches offer extensive hydrotherapy options that elongate the spa experience, like steam rooms, cold plunge, floatation pools, heated pools and jacuzzis. The Steyn City branch also offers the cutting-edge Quantum Harmonic beds, the first in Africa, with vibroacoustic healing for stress and sleep.
