The magnificent lodge is situated in one of the most stunning locations in Southern Africa! Positioned at the base of Chapman’s Peak, Tintswalo Atlantic overlooks the quaint fishing village of Hout Bay.
Stylish yet understated, Tintswalo Atlantic offers home-away-from-home comforts, discreet service and mouthwatering culinary creations in the most beautiful setting. Nestled unobtrusively between the boulders of the Atlantic Ocean's water’s edge and the slopes of the Cape Mountain Fynbos Reserve, known worldwide for its extraordinary rich and diverse fauna and flora - no trees were removed and not so much as a branch was cut from the Milkwood trees that grace the shoreline - Tintswalo Atlantic offers absolute seclusion and relaxation, with the ocean literally a stone’s throw away from the pebbled beach!
Tintswalo Atlantic is the perfect destination for visitors wanting to relax right beside the ocean - either starting their holiday at the lodge or to recuperate after an exciting few days on safari. It’s also ideal for holiday goers wanting to spend their days exploring the many attractions of the Cape Peninsula, returning “home” at the end of a busy day!

The Presidential Suite is also situated on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean, and represents a "Country-French-Chic" feel, evoking classic French elements, but marrying the classic with a contemporary style - thus adding an interesting "twist" to it.
The Presidential Suite is authentically decorated to emulate the experiences and colours of the Elba and Corsica islands. A generous entrance hall leads off to two separate full en-suite suites, connected by a central lavish lounge. Both rooms and the lounge face the sea and have spectacular views.
Guests may book this suite for exclusive use, or as part of the main lodge facilities.
Tintswalo Safari Lodge is located in the Mpumulanga Province of South Africa on the private Manyeleti Reserve concession - a lush, exclusive lodge nestled between the Timbavati Private Reserve to the north, Sabi Sand Reserve to the south, and open to the Greater Kruger National Park on its fenceless eastern boundary. Resting amidst an ancient sycamore tree grove that overlooks a waterhole frequented by large herds of elephant and other big game, Safari Lodge is a pristine wilderness reserve abounding in big game and spectacular bird life.
Why the Manyeleti Game Reserve?
The reserve is unique for its very low vehicle density, and as a result offers the true exclusive safari experience.
Tintswalo Safari lodge is situated along a seasonal river bed among an ancient sycamore tree grove. The exquisitely appointed main lodge overlooks a waterhole frequented by a large herd of elephant and other big game. The Explorer suites are all linked to the main lodge by raised wooden walkways.
