Tintswalo Atlantic Review
Visitors attracted to the Cape Peninsula for its natural grandeur will think they've died and gone to heaven when arriving at this discreetly luxurious boutique hotel. Directly off Chapman's Peak Drive (a contender for world's most scenic road) and built around a wonderland of native fynbos plants and milk wood trees, Tintswalo Atlantic is the only beachfront development in Table Mountain National Park. Themed after different islands, 11 roomy suites all boast breathtaking views of Hout Bay, comfy verandas, wood-burning stoves, and divine bedding—all against the sound of breaking waves. Only 20 minutes from Cape Town, guests can enjoy the city but may rather opt to watch the whales playing in the bay. Exquisite four-course meals, an impressive wine cellar, in-room spa treatments, a fabulous pool deck (with the same view), and excellent service complete the pampering at this exclusive and truly unique hideaway.
