The fragrance induced from wild flowers, indigenous fynbos, the African bush, a native Boma and a roaring log fire are our greatest inspiration. All our treatments are a blend of herbal and indigenous ingredients celebrating a variety of traditions to create a cross - cultural African inspired Bush Spa experience. Flowers connect us to the spirit of the world - each treatment begins with an ancient ritual of a hot floral-infused foot bath. The ultimate experience on offer is the Magical Moonlit Massage, where at the end of a timber walkway lit by the soft light of the moon and a fairy-trial of hurricane lamps, an African-inspired experience awaits. Aromatherapy oils and the warmth of a log fire bring the ultimate in relaxation decadence to leave you ready for a deep sleep in the quiet of The Dunes night where not even dreams will stir you.
