Nice place . ???? lovely staff and hostess!!
Did a full spa day was amazing, lunch was great!!!
Atmosphere relaxing next to the fire place on the breaks..

Only off side.....take the shuttle if you do not have a
4 x 4...don't attempt to take your own vehicle , if it not high or 4 x 4 don't damage your car ...the road up is horrible and no one when booking warned ⚠️ us about the bad condition of the road.

Took us 20min to get there.... ...... ....... make a plan with the condition of the road ...you have the machines to do the job on the farm!!!!

Looks ways better than what it looked like when I last visited 3 years ago. They need to work on the noise levels though and maybe consider offering meal options. Rather pack some snacks if you go for the day spa. We had to find a nearby restaurant to complete the amazing spa experience with a wholesome meal. There's a room for improvement

Excellent treatments and staff very friendly. Was there for a full day. Breakfast was not great. Fruit salad was Kiwi and apple - not fresh. Got a dry scone and muffin with only butter. Granola, yoghurt and honey was fine. Lunch we had butterchicken and rice. Tasty, but an option for salad would be better. Drinks available all day and service was excellent. No time to use Jacuzzi. Place do need some attention, but they are busy with renovations. Wish they would enforce NO Cellphones during treatments. I think it is disrespectful to the staff as well as fellow spa clients.

What a love day spent at Mangwanani Winelands. Great value for money spa. Authentic South African. Love the staff they are all friendly and courteous. Had 6 full treatments from head to toe back to front ;). A delicious breakfast was served and an great butter chicken curry for lunch. Drinks where served and we were spoiled for choice from coffee and tea to wine, champagne and non alcoholic beverages. The icing on the cake for me literally was desert. Authentic South African Malva Pudding and Custard what more could you ask for ❤️. My wife enjoyed a delicious strawberry cheesecake both washed down with a Fruity Chenin Blanc form the local vineyards. All in all a wonderful day. Make sure you support a locally owned establishment, with the correct business practice of social uplifting the local community by using local ladies from previously disadvantaged communities training them a skill and allowing them to partake in a profit share for all there hard work.

My friend and I visited Mangwanani for a full spa day experience. All the treatments were delightful and relaxing. The ladies performing the therapies are well trained, and I enjoyed all the sessions—great massages, facials, scrubs, etc. There wasn't a single treatment I didn't thoroughly enjoy!

Breakfast was fresh fruit, yoghurt with muesli, a delicious muffin, and a bread roll served with butter on the side. There were options of water, coffee, tea, and juices. (I almost think they offered Sparkling wine too.)

At lunch, they served delicious Butter Chicken with rice. I enjoyed the meal, and afterwards, they offered dessert - options of Malva Pudding with custard, Cheesecake (delicious, I tried some) or Carrot cake (also delicious, I dried some). There were water, juices, Coke, Appletiser, coffee, and tea options.

Unfortunately, Mangwanani doesn't have a "spa feel" to it. The noise levels were too high, and relaxing spa music was only heard a few times during the day. It feels like the establishment lacks proper management. The therapists seemed unorganised, and I missed the refinement and calmness of what I'd expect from a spa. The gowns and bedding looked worn and unkempt, and the building could do with some maintenance.

However - it is excellent value for money when buying special packages. You get lovely treatments, breakfast, lunch and drinks.

If you're looking for an affordable spa day out, definitely consider Mangwanani, but also keep your expectations to "affordable spa day out".
