Overview

Our Opinion of Santani Wellness Resort & Spa

The resort has a Scandinavian architectural feel which is focused on sustainability and eco standards. The mountain setting above the clouds gives a sense of tranquillity, calm & peace. There is an extensive wellness programme, and in our experience offers excellent massage treatments. The design of the chalets with open vents allows you to sleep to the sounds of nature, however we found the sounds from other nearby chalets also reached ours at times – something to be aware of. In our opinion Santani’s location is perfect if you intend on basing yourself there to partake in the variety of wellness programmes offered, however it is remote and therefore perhaps not the ideal choice if you are simply looking for a base to explore the local area or further afield.
