Wilderness Rwanda opening The Sanctuary, a wellness facility
Wilderness Rwanda will launch The Sanctuary at Wilderness Bisate in December, a dedicated wellness facility serving guests at both the Bisate and Bisate Reserve properties in Rwanda's volcanic highlands.
The Rwanda facility is positioned as part of Wilderness' evolution toward "conscious travel," redefining luxury through presence and connection with nature rather than traditional service amenities.
The wellness center features a heated, indoor, saltwater lap pool; steam room; ice bath for contrast therapy; and cocoon-style meditation pods designed for mindfulness practices. Additional facilities include a fully equipped gym, yoga studio, dedicated treatment rooms for massages and beauty services and fireplaces throughout.
Wildreness said The Sanctuary represents the first phase of its broader wellness integration across the portfolio. The concept will simultaneously debut at Wilderness Mombo in Botswana, with plans to embed wellness programming more deeply throughout the brand's camps via immersive activities, sustainably sourced cuisine and digital disconnection opportunities.
