Planning a wellness retreat at The Twelve Apostles

Sitting amidst the Table Mountain National Park and the Atlantic Ocean, we are in a prime location for a weekend of restoration and rejuvenation at The Twelve Apostles Hotel & Spa. The serene natural world that encompasses us promises a cocoon of calm and tranquillity, bolstered by our range of activities, experiences, and spa offers. Here, we will show you how to plan the perfect wellness escape at our hotel so that you can return home feeling truly revitalised.

Explore our green spaces

Spending time in nature is proven to boost your mental health and wellbeing, and what better way to reap the calming benefits of the natural world (and our fortune in having such great access to it) than an exploration of the fynbos gardens or a mountain walk across the Table Mountain National Park. Our fynbos trail offers an idyllic 3km walk that boasts views of some of Cape Town’s most impressive landmarks. Notable examples include The Twelve Apostles Mountain Range and the surrounding Table Mountain National Park, Camps Bay, and the traditional African village of Kraal, all of which sit against the backdrop of the Atlantic Ocean. Guests can also request a guide through our innovative Sports Buddy scheme.

Find balance with a yoga practice

A wellness weekend would be incomplete without a yoga practice to rebalance both body and mind. Its nourishing qualities and the incorporation of valuable breathing exercises makes it a wellness ritual that you can take away with you long after your stay. Our favourite way to practice is within our peaceful gardens – the perfect setting to stretch and release tension whilst gaining access to the quiet contemplation that is vital for reducing stress. Again, our Sports Buddy scheme means that you can immerse yourself fully in this practice through the company of an experienced member of our team.

Experience bliss at The Twelve Apostles Spa

A visit to our luxury spa is the keystone to achieving an oasis of relaxation that is essential to any wellness retreat. Dedicating time to a massage, facial, or full body pamper will allow your mind to relax as your muscles release tension and stress, all of which is maximised by the chance to unwind in our tranquillity lounge or plunge pools. Our use of high-quality products that focus on harnessing the benefits of natural ingredients and botanicals across our treatments, including Tata Harper and Elemis, also offers a truly holistic healing experience.

Nourish yourself

The final component to a truly rejuvenating wellness weekend lies in the premise that what we put into our bodies is just as important as how we nurture them. Here at The Twelve Apostles, we pride ourselves on our continued use of fresh, local, and seasonal produce that enables us to offer our guests delicious yet nourishing and sustainable food. Whether enjoying our range of sustainable seafood dishes, or dining from our vegan menu at Azure Restaurant, there is no place easier to eat holistically than at The Twelve Apostles.
