The Best Spa Experiences to Enjoy During a Namibia Tour

While most Namibia safaris are all about hitting the road and adventuring into far flung, off-the-beaten-track destinations, there are indeed other ways to look at your Namibia tour. The notion of going to a Spa whilst on a safari is perhaps not something that is well publicised, including a day of rejuvenating and relaxing spa treatments in your itinerary could result in just the sort of holiday experience you’ve always dreamed of.

There are plenty of wonderful locations in Namibia where you can sign up for a spa treatment. Some of the spas form a part of the more upmarket Namibia lodges and hotels, while others are independent businesses generally found in the bigger towns around the country. (One thing to keep in mind when looking for a spa treatment is that some lodge spas might make their spa exclusively available to their guests.)

  1. Omulilo Spa, Mokuti Lodge
    Step into a luxurious oasis of serenity, just outside the famous Etosha National Park and treat yourself to a rejuvenating and holistic treatment after a day spent game-viewing n the hot, dusty park. Massage therapies, hand-&-foot treatments, facials and more are offered in a beautiful, serene setting by professional and experienced therapists.
  2. Midgard Namibia Spa
    Here, relaxation is a priority and the focus is on ensuring that you have the best experience during a facial, massage or beauty treatment. Midgard Lodge is a self-dubbed paradise, situated only 86 km outside Windhoek and the Spa can enjoyed by both day-visitors and in-house guests. The Midgard Spa utilises renowned and sought-after treatment products, to renew and revive your body, mind and soul.
  3. Divava Okavango Lodge and Spa
    In the far north of Namibia, one enters a green paradise in the Caprivi region of Namibia – here, in a green oasis amongst tall leafy trees on the banks of the wide Okavango River, the Divava Spa is located. The Spa offers you indoor and outdoor treatment rooms, each offering complete privacy, with an uninhibited view of the river. The steam room will ease your muscle aches and the clear blue swimming pool lies just outside the door and entices you to dive in and cool off after a massage, body wrap or scrub, and more.
  4. Atlantic Spa
    Named after the vast ocean that flanks the coastal town on Swakopmund and located within the Strand Hotel, the Spa caters for both in-house guests and visiting customers. Offering the bespoke and renowned Signature, and award-winning Thalgo product ranges, a variety of expert treatment options is available. Complete your spa experience by enjoying crystal steam rooms, rain showers, a grooming lounge, relaxation room, rooftop garden terrace and a Sauna.
  5. Le Mirage Desert Lodge and Spa
