Uniquely located within the Table Mountain National Park on Chapman’s Peak Drive, Tintswalo Atlantic pairs breathtaking views with unsurpassed luxury and environmental consciousness. The five-star hotel, which is renowned as one of Cape Town’s most precious gems due to its superlative service and serene surroundings, ensures that it keeps a light carbon footprint to preserve its pristine environment.
The award-winning property, which is nestled on a pebbled beach at the foot of the famed Table Mounted, is blessed with panoramic views of the picturesque Hout Bay Harbour, dramatic Sentinel mountains peak, and the Atlantic Ocean beyond. Coinciding with its relaunch, Tintswalo Atlantic’s new aim will be to focus on resident guests, introducing more accessible room rates that invite guests to immerse themselves in the full Tintswalo hospitality experience.
Lisa Goosen, CEO of Tintswalo Atlantic, shares: “With tragedy comes opportunity and after the fire, the re-launch has provided us with the prospect of fine-tuning our product offering. Tintswalo Atlantic is synonymous with luxury, privacy and seclusion. This is what we highlight as our service promise. We’d like to present guests with a bespoke and exclusive, private lodge experience, complete with the warm South African hospitality and personal service our brand is known for. Family owned and managed, Tintswalo Atlantic is a magical, emotive place. The sensation of love, gratitude and peace is what we’d like for our guests to experience when they stay with us. It is a Tintswalo tradition for every guest to be invited to make a wish before they leave this special place, by casting a pebble into the ocean and taking this special moment away with you.”
The updated room rates include an extravagant full breakfast and start at R6500 per room per night (low season 1 May to 31 August); R9600 (high season), R11500 (peak season 15 December to 15 January). Also included in the rate is complimentary wi-fi as well as the signature Sundowner Cocktail of the Day with a selection of canapés. Room service, in-room massages, transfers and a range of sightseeing excursions are available too. Bookings can be made here.
The property can accommodate a maximum of 24 resident guests in its ten Islands Suites and one 2-bedroom Presidential Suite. The suites are named after the world’s favorite islands, from Robben Island, Madagascar and Zanzibar to Java, Corsica and Sicily, and each one boasts a bespoke design and individualized décor. All suites open up to a private deck overlooking the ocean and the pebbled beach below, and on the inside, a lounge area with a wood-burning fireplace, and a tea and coffee station keeps you cozy. The spacious en-suite bathrooms, with walk-in showers, couples’ double basins and huge Victorian baths with a selection of fragrant soaps and pampering bath products, have stunning sea views too.
The public areas are lacquered in the calm and cool shades of blue and turquoise and feature distinct decorative touches from the owners, mother and daughter team Gaye Corbett and Lisa Goosen. The stylish lounge areas are set around intimate fireplaces and caressed by ocean vistas. In warm weather, meals are hosted on the sprawling wooden deck amidst the sounds of crashing waves, the smells of the salty ocean and the touch of a fresh sea breeze. In cooler temperatures, the elegant dining room is a welcome setting, where its open kitchen enables diners to enjoy an interactive dining experience.
Non-resident guests are accommodated once a week only at the Tintswalo Atlantic Where else in the World Wednesday Lunch, where a limited number of casual diners are welcome by prior reservation and subject to availability.
