There’s something special about stepping into a warm, quiet sauna after a long day – especially on a cool Cape Town evening.
Whether you want a private wellness space at home, an extra attraction for your guest house, or a new feature alongside your pool and jacuzzi, a well-built sauna can quickly become the most loved spot on your property.
At Cape Pools, we offer sauna installation in Cape Town with a focus on neat finishes, practical layouts, and long-term reliability.
We help you choose the right type of sauna for your space – from traditional timber rooms with hot rocks, to modern infrared units – and make sure everything from the structure to the electrics is handled properly.
Our team can install indoor and outdoor saunas, freestanding or built into an existing entertainment area.
We look at how you currently use your pool, patio and garden, then suggest a sauna layout that feels natural and easy to access, rather than an afterthought tucked in the corner.
Because we work with pools, spas and outdoor areas every day, we understand how to integrate a sauna into your broader wellness setup.
That might mean placing it close to your pool for a hot–cold contrast, tying it into an existing deck, or planning simple landscaping so the whole area feels like one connected relaxation zone.
We work with homeowners, boutique guest houses, lodges, small hotels and estates across Cape Town who want a quality sauna installed with minimal hassle.
From first ideas to final test run, we guide you through the choices, explain the practical side clearly, and deliver a clean, professional finish you can be proud of.
We help you choose the right size, layout and type of sauna for your home, guest house or lodge.
We work with reliable heaters, controls and finishes that can handle Cape Town’s climate and daily use.
We design your sauna to work alongside your pool, jacuzzi or outdoor area so everything feels connected.
Our team is based in Cape Town and offers on-site advice, neat installation and ongoing support when you need it.
We can assist with a range of sauna options, including traditional heated rock saunas and modern infrared units, as well as indoor or outdoor cabins.
During a site visit or consultation, we’ll talk through how you plan to use the sauna, your available space and budget, and then recommend the type and configuration that makes the most sense for you.
We serve all areas of Cape Town and its surrounding areas, including, but not limited to, Camps Bay, Sea Point, Plattekloof, Fish Hoek, Lakeside, Constantia, Bishops Court, Sunningdale, Clifton, Bantry Bay, Newlands, Claremont, Waterfront, Bloubergstrand, and, Hout Bay.
Yes. Some clients prefer a sauna inside the home – for example near a bathroom, gym or spare room – while others want an outdoor sauna close to the pool or on a deck.
Each option has different considerations for ventilation, waterproofing and access. We’ll assess your property and let you know which locations are practical and compliant before you make a final decision.
You don’t need a huge area, but you do need enough room for the structure, safe access and proper ventilation.
Smaller saunas can comfortably seat two to three people, while larger layouts can accommodate families or groups. We’ll measure up, look at ceiling height and clearances, and then propose a size that feels comfortable without overwhelming the room or outdoor area.
Most saunas require a dedicated electrical circuit and must be installed by a qualified electrician to ensure safety and compliance.
Depending on the size, location and type of structure, there may also be basic building or homeowner association requirements to consider.
We’ll advise you on what’s needed in your specific situation and can coordinate with trusted electricians and other trades where required.
Once the design is approved and the sauna unit or materials are ready, a straightforward installation usually takes a few days to complete.
More complex projects – for example, when we’re also building new decking, integrating with a pool area or making structural changes – can take a bit longer.
We’ll give you a clear timeline before starting so you know what to expect.
Saunas are relatively low maintenance, but they still need care. This includes keeping the interior clean, allowing proper drying and ventilation after use, and occasionally checking heaters, controls and timber surfaces.
We’ll show you how to look after your sauna and can advise on any future servicing or upgrades if needed.
Definitely. Many clients choose to add a sauna at the same time as a new pool, jacuzzi, decking, or outdoor makeover.
Because Cape Pools handles pools, spas and outdoor finishes, we can coordinate everything as one project so the final result feels cohesive – not like separate pieces added at different times.
