Top choice in Sea Point to Hout Bay
The only hotel in Table Mountain National Park has been rebuilt with its secluded seaside charm intact following a disastrous fire in March 2015. Luxurious Tintswalo hugs the edge of Hout Bay beneath Chapman's Peak, with an unbroken view of the Sentinel towering over town, and whales passing in season.
Savour the location over lavish meals in the terrace restaurant, which is connected by a boardwalk along the water's edge to the pool and tropical-themed rooms.
