Amazing stay
Extremely friendly and attentive staff. The food cooked for us was amazing. We loved the views and being able to be around so many penguins on Boulder Beach, right outside our balcony. Exceeds all expectations.

Perfect views of boulders beach
Beautiful B&B right on boulders beach with unobstructed views of the water! The best part of this B&B was the location. Would recommend staying 1 night to wake up early the following day and see the penguins. The staff are very friendly and helpful and property itself is very large and nicely styled.

A must stay in Cape Town!
Absolutely incredible stay! My friend and I were traveling for a few weeks and ended our stay here, couldn’t have been a better way to cap off the trip. Service: impeccable. They are accommodating and kind and so helpful. The food was AMAZING and the views were the best (we could see the penguins). I would tell everyone to stay here at least once in their life!

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.

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.

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.

Excellent 5 Star Boutique in stunning location.
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.

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
