Amazing stay for two nights with the family Greeting was impeccable and so well conducted. The lodges are beautiful and a unique experience. We eat in both restaurants and enjoyed our stay and were sad to leave. The grounds are stunning. Would highly recommend this location. Easy to find but still in a remote location. Close to the multiple activities in a stunning area.

This is one of the most incredible places I have ever stayed. Each "room" is actually a chatlet on stilts. The property is on a hill, so the room is not far off the ground, but in the treetops and overlooking swathes of forest. The chalets are far enough apart that you don't feel as if you are near anyone. Each chatlet has indoor and outdoor shower, its own outdoor infinity pool, fireplace with wood-burning stove, large bath, free port, under-floor heating and all sorts of other goodies. The food in the hotel is also incredible - dinner was one of the best meals I had in South Africa, and breakfast was excellent as well. In the winter through the website I got a great deal called "Last-minute Tsala" - ~1000 ZAR per person per night.

From the moment we drove in we knew this was going to be special! We stayed for a night on our drive along the garden route in May 2025. Tsala is magical, the treetop lodges are something out of dreams! The view, the plunge pool, the most comfortable bed I have ever slept in, the attention to detail, the luxury. Everything about Tsala was amazing, especially the staff who looked after us so well. One night was not enough!

Fabulous and Beautiful property on the Garden Route. A lodge overlooking the treetops with plunge pool to keep you cool. The lodges are so well kept and great space inside. Bathroom is huge. All the staff were so helpful. Food in hotel restaurant and Zinzi restaurant on the same property were lovely. Recommend to anyone wanting to get away from it all.
