The spa at the Four Seasons Hotel Westcliff Johannesburg has opened following a multi-million dollar restoration of the property. The spa showcases nine treatment rooms – one of which is a couples’ suite – and products for treatments by Terres D’Afrique and Biologique Recherche.

There are also two swimming pools plus separate changing rooms, steamrooms and saunas for men and women at the 117-key hotel spa. The facility’s 24.9m (82ft) outdoor infinity lap pool includes a water feature and a bubble bed – which provides a gentle underwater massage. The relaxation lounge, dubbed Après Spa, is the city’s only outdoor spa lounge. Treatment beds for the spa were supplied by Gharieni (pictured).

The Four Seasons hotel – the first in South Africa was designed by DSA Architects with interior design from Jacket.

Located in the city’s affluent area known as The Parks, the Johannesburg Zoo is within walking distance, 36 of the country’s top 100 golf courses are within one hour’s drive and the resort is also close to UNESCO World Heritage Site the Cradle of Humankind.
