Great spot that is completely new. Only knock would be to have the outdoor pool heated and more waters available in the room especially considering you're in wine country drinking a lot of wine

Simply upscale relaxation. Because it is a Wellness Retreat, I suggest contacting them for their program offerings.

Hidden gem in the Winelands
What a stunning retreat in the Winelands. The staff, the food, the rooms, the treatments were all 10 Star quality. Will definitely go back very soon.

amazing ambience
Coming to Sante on dirt road indicated something very quiet and special and it was. beautiful place, tasteful decorated on a big land and beautiful view.
Very big room, romantic bathroom and balcony with dream view.
We just laved it.
Suggestion for management, do something more about food, as people who stay at your place probably would like to eat at spot.
Very simple selection for breakfast: coconut yoghurt with fruit, eggs and boring, but probably healthy muffin. Same breakfast each morning.
We took dinner only once, again seems like same menu each day and quality and taste not fitting to Sante` niveau.

Perfect place for recharging and forgetting about work! Friendly staff, wonderful rooms, great food, and the perfect place to escape from work! The rooms are spacious and well decorated, very comfortable and peaceful. The food was great, and even though I enjoy all of the unhealthy types of food, the gluten-free/sugar-free/super healthy options were truly wonderful. the spa has some really great options so you can choose a different treatment each day. Mountain bikes are available, but the roads are not great for riding on when vehicles fly by on the dirt road doing 60 kph. I would ask that the staff find farms in the area that would be willing to allow cycling on their roads instead of asking the customer to ride up random places and ask.
The evenings are peaceful and enjoying a glass of wine on the patio before dinner was very enjoyable. Definitely going back again!

Nice hotel in the middle of nowhere
A nice hotel but completely in the middle of nowhere. If the Uber that you ordered is really coming is not save as some drivers refuse the final 3km over the gravel road.
No breakfeast buffet but a small selection of a la card and health oriented food..
The same applies to the dinner . Only one menue to choose and as it is far away from anything else you do not just go around the corner to grab something.

Einfach wunderbar, eine Wohlfühloase. Das Hotel ist von der A - Z geschmackvoll und hochwertigst eingerichtet. Wir erhielten ein Upgrade und hatten von unserem Zimmer einen unglaublich schönen Blick auf den herrlichen Garten . Ein Fittnessraum mit Laufband , Ergometer und einigen Kraftgeräten sind vorhanden zudem gibt es Mountainbikes kostenfrei zum Ausleihen ( wir hatten tolle Biketouren in die Weinberge gemacht). Ebenso empfehlenswert ist ein Spabesuch , ich hatte 2 Massagen bei Ronald, er ist der absolute Star unter sen Masseuren!!!!
