Best Spas In Namibia
A small selection of safari lodges and camps that offer guests spa, massage and wellness treatments in-house, either in a dedicated wellness centre or in the privacy of one's suite or viewing deck.
There is most certainly an increase in people asking for establishments within Namibia that offer spa and wellness as an option when visiting for a few nights. And honestly, we can see why, being pampered after a long year of work, dealing with all the issues the world has thrown at us, we all deserve at the very least a few hours of "ME" time.
Spoil yourself and your partner rotten by indulging in a massage and/or therapy while being surrounded by some of Africa's most rugged and beautiful landscapes.
Currently, the list of properties offering up spa options is growing by the month, as they do, we will be listing them below. Enjoy.
