Visiting Gaia is the most lovely experience and I’m looking forward to coming back again already! Kaylin was so friendly and welcoming, instantly knew what I was trying to achieve and shared her expert knowledge on how to get my hair back into great condition. I’ll be back to put my hair in her hands as soon as I’m next in Cape Town. I left feeling like myself again and in such a fantastic mood. The whole team is warm, kind and helpful, and clearly experts at what they do. I highly recommend them and am looking forward to my next visit. Thank you team!

It was a wonderful experience. I had a full-body massage with Jamila—she is highly professional and amazing at what she does. I will definitely repeat the experience when I’m back in Cape Town.

Honestly this was probably the best deep tissue massage I ever received, and I have recieved many (around the world actually since I have taken this year to travel). Esnarth is a tiny woman, but man does she have some strength! I suffer from achey muscles especially my calves that just become stone. I was in quite a lot of pain when I came in. And she loosened my muscles, abating the pain. If i was a Cape town local I would be making an appointment every week. Alas I am only here for 1 month, but I think I will go in again on my last day.

Wow! Incredible massage. I had a lot of pain in my upper body, shoulders and the lady was incredible at getting out the knots. Pressure was perfect. Honestly one of the best massages of my life. The ambience and decor in this place is also very great. Loved the tea afterwards. I can’t wait to come back next time I’m in Cape Town. Kudus

I had the most marvellous experience. Maryke and her team are true gems and I couldn’t recommend them more. Both of my treatments were well explained, I was greeted and we had really good conversations and laughs. The attention to detail and honest communication is much appreciated. I truly couldn’t recommend them more and they‘ve become my go-to for when I come back to Cape Town!

Best service I’ve had in Cape Town! Thank you

I highly recommend Zavana for anyone looking for a top-tier sports massage in Cape Town. Zavana was incredibly professional and knowledgeable, she immediately identified my tight spots and I left feeling ‘lighter’ and had instant relief. I’ll definitely be making this a regular part of my recovery routine.

This was genuinely one of the best sport / deep tissue massages I have ever received. As soon as Abigail touched my calf, what was supposed to be an inner thought, slipped as I complimented her out loud! I will be in Cape Town for an additional 4 days and I am planning to visit Abigail once more! Keep up the good work. Your hands, elbows, sticks and whatever else you have used, are MAGIC!

Always cutting edge treatments, brilliant advice and warm friendly staff. Best clinic in Cape Town (and apparently now in the country too 😉)

Excellent massage therapist. Kellie has strong hands and can find your knots. The location is safe in a beautifully appointed apartment. Small issues using Fresha but you can What’s App and they get back to you quickly. A great find in Cape Town. More Massage will sooth tired and sore muscles while also relaxing your mind.

Not used with Hawaiian Lomilomi before but I will definitely come back again and already are doing so, I do a lot if desk based work and suffer with back pain but not anymore. Esnarth was polite and professional, it was really nice how she listened to me and make sure my treatment was most effective. I'm now a regular as its honestly the best I have ever had in Cape Town.

Best Sports Message Therapist in Cape Town keep up the exceptional work 🫡

I strained my lower back right before I was heading to Cape Town for vacation. I could barely tie my shoes since I was in so much pain. Luckily I found out Esnarth works close to the hotel I was staying at. She was able to loosen up my muscles so I wasn’t in constant pain and could actually enjoy my trip thereafter. Esnarth also sent me stretches that I should do to help prevent another back injury. I wish I could find a massage therapist like her in Manchester she actually cares about helping people, would highly recommend.

My nails started chipping at the ends after a week, which was very disappointing as the previous time which was my first time with Shenanigans after relocating from Gauteng to Cape Town, my nails lasted more than a month. I wend back to get my nails fixed but had to pay for the repairs even after I was told that the gel was not applied correctly. I feel it's not fair to charge clients if the therapist did not do application correctly.. Siswe did great job fixing my nails although she was not the therapist who applied the gel initially.

Amazing massage and scrub with Jamila - thank you for helping me relax and feel rejuvenated - we will be back next time we come to Cape Town 🥳

There is no better place in Cape Town for these types of services.

I always enjoy the massage with Zavanna. The best you can get in Cape Town.

We had just completed a 15 day motorcycle tour and were in Cape Town for the weekend. My body was aching from the over 2500 kilometres of riding and desperately needed a back massage. The Google search gave a chat FL Aesthetics. We got the perfect therapeutic professional massage. I highly recommend this place for people with legitimate pain. The staff are pretty people person

A gem in the middle of Cape Town.....thank you so much ladies for looking after me. I feel amazing....! A great place to visit for locals and those on holiday.....Sshh....don't tell everyone. .........xxxx

Deborah was amazing! We had a lot of fun speaking in Portuguese, since she speaks 4 languages. It was one of the best experiences in Cape Town, for me, to have someone to speak to on my own language; any Brazilian would understand, it’s quite amazing to get their nails done and to be chatting at the same time. Can’t wait to go back to get another perfect color on my nails, and to be, again, pleased with the results of gel nail so professionally made by a great professional. Thank you !!!

Excellent massage technique & strong hands. Definitely returning for my next visit to Cape Town

The best nail salon in Cape Town

Esnarth gave me a wonderful thoroughly intense massage! She managed to find all the tight, knotted and sore spots and worked on them thoroughly to free up tension in the neck, shoulders and back. Highly recommended in Cape Town

My favourite spa in Cape Town. Tranquil, professional and caring.

The best sports massage in Cape town, if you have muscles so tight it is affecting your movement this is the place to go.

Amazing service and Dee was so helpful and professional in adjusting our booking. Once again Thank you. Axole who did my treatments was super friendly and explained everything she was doing in depth. She has magical hands when it comes to massage techniques and every treatment she does, is done with passion. She aims to make you 100% happy before you leave. I will definitely recommend to my colleagues when in Cape Town and will no doubt return. A hands down fantastic experience

This is absolutely my favourite spa in Cape Town at the moment. Beautiful location, calm therapy rooms and wonderful therapists.

Thank you Bricita for my beautiful nails - best nail tech in Cape Town You will be seeing me again
