Tintswalo’s luxurious lodges have made waves in the travel world, with two of their iconic South African properties earning recognition in the 37th annual Condé Nast Traveler Readers’ Choice Awards.
Tintswalo Safari Lodge, nestled in the heart of the Greater Kruger area, captured the hearts of travellers, ranking 7th among South Africa’s Top Resorts with an impressive score of 96.49. Lauded as one of the best places to immerse yourself in South Africa’s spectacular wildlife, this lodge delivers an unparalleled safari experience.
On the coast, Tintswalo Atlantic, perched at the edge of the ocean in Cape Town, claimed 12th place in the Top Hotels in South Africa category with a score of 95.83. Described by Condé Nast Traveler as “perched on stilts between ancient milkwood trees,” the hotel’s glass-fronted suites offer guests the chance to feel the spray of the Atlantic waves and the serenity of nature, all from their private decks.
This year, over 575,000 Condé Nast Traveler readers from around the globe rated their most cherished travel experiences. Known as the travel industry’s longest-running and most esteemed accolade, the Readers’ Choice Awards are the gold standard for excellence in hospitality.
Lisa Goosen, CEO of Tintswalo Collection, shared her pride:
“It’s an honour to have our properties recognised in these prestigious awards. Tintswalo is committed to offering our guests unforgettable experiences that showcase the beauty and diversity of South Africa.”
Tintswalo’s portfolio of boutique lodges and hotels spans six properties across Southern Africa, each uniquely set in unspoiled locations. The name “Tintswalo” is inspired by the Shangaan word for “an intangible feeling of love, gratitude, and peace,” a sentiment that resonates deeply in every guest experience.
For travellers seeking authenticity, luxury, and a true sense of place, Tintswalo offers a journey that’s as unforgettable as the landscapes it celebrates.
