Last week I got a look at the new Mangwanani Boutique Spa situated within luxury Cape Town Foreshore hotel, The Cullinan (which is of course part of the Tsogo Sun’s Southern Sun hotel group).
An afternoon of bubbles, sweet treats and pampering… Aah yes, life can really be so tough at times…
To me it felt like a cool city oasis, perfect for anyone wanting unwind & recharge. Treatment wise they specialise in African therapeutic wellness experiences. These you can enjoy either in one of their oh-so-trainquil rooms (which come with starry night ceilings and all), or outside around the pool.
Their massage treatments are infused with traditional African healing rituals combined with modern wellness therapies. This way you’re sure to get a really good overall boost. Their signature treatment is this Korean Scrub with African Rituals. It’s a vigorous full-body exfoliation that combines an original Korean technique with African traditions. It starts with a 20min soak in warm glass spa, then onto the scrub which removes dead & aging skin cells and leaves the body feeling totally refreshed. Sounds good, doesn’t it?
Now let’s take a look around shall we:
Love their therapists’ uniforms & all the little African touches
This is upstairs area where you’ll find all their treatment rooms…
Some more prettiness…
Seriously, it just doesn’t get more inviting than that… wanted to jump in so badly!
I also highly recommend spending some time poolside if you can:
Because it really is something quite special…

I have to say a BIG thank you to the Mangwanani & Cullinan teams for making me feel so incredibly pampered on this random, mid-week afternoon. I’m coming back for a full-body massage and a soak in that tub, that’s for sure. 😉
