This place was amazing. Beautiful accomodations and location. Nestled right above the penguins with comforting rooms and delightful staff.

It is so close to the penguins you can hear them from the terraces, such a unique location. The staff were amazing, shout out to Darvey and Kirsty. Nothing was too much trouble, they were attentive and very customer service driven.

Beautiful stay away from the hustle and bustle. Penguins and Wales on the doorstep. Breakfast with a view and the best Eggs Benedict I’ve ever eaten!

We loved the location, facilities and hospitality at the Tintswalo! We didn’t realize how close it actually was to the boardwalk and viewing areas for the penguins at Boulders Beach. The views over False Bay were really nice also.

Tintswalo at Boulders is top notch. We loved our short stay with a fabulous room, warm fire and beautiful view. We walked the beach at sunrise and visited many penguin. Staff was helpful and friendly. I'd definitely go back - for a longer stay!

We had a wonderful stay here - the hotel is very homely and Kirsty the manager and team were incredibly welcoming. The views across Boulders Beach are stunning - the photos don’t do it justice! Would recommend eating in the restauraunt as there wasn’t much around that opened in the evening for food

We enjoyed every minute of our stay at this lovely boutique hotel. We were warmly welcomed and the staff took wonderful care of us. We felt very much at home and enjoyed the beautiful surroundings, the comfortable bed and the lovely furnishings in every room. Food was very good. Short walk into town. The view is spectacular. I would recommend this location without any hesitations.

Ideal place to stay for a couple of nights to visit the penguins and Cape Point. genuine 5 Star luxury and charming service. Definitely book a room with view of the sea. In house catering is limited in choice but very good and the drinks range is comprehensive. Nothing not to like.

Ashley • Couple Trip

We came to Tintswalo at Boulders for our elopement and it was absolutely perfect. We were in the Water Witch suite which had outstanding views of the beach and penguins. Everyone was incredibly helpful, Dawie and Kristy were fabulous and even acted as our two witnesses for our marriage certificate. The chef is amazing and we were incredibly impressed and happy with the offerings at breakfast, dinner and sunset canapés. The only thing that would have made it better was if we were able to stay longer
