Reviews of Tsala Treetop Lodge 5 stars

The rooms are beautiful, attention to detail in everything from welcome drinks to bath bombs. There are 3 restaurants to choose from and the dinners were exceptional and different in each restaurant. Breakfast had everything and more. But the gardens are the gem of the stay. We walked the gardens and found ultimate relaxation. There are buck walking around and it felt like bambi's family were visiting. There is even a gym for exercising off the kilo's from the exceptional food.

That I couldn't stay longer. Wish I could have gone during summer but the fireplace and aircon were there to keep us warm.

From the moment I discovered Tsala Treetop Lodge nestled within the lush Garden Route, I knew it was special. Elevated walkways, stone architecture, and African-inspired design conjure a harmonious retreat that feels both secluded and indulgent.  Atmosphere & Setting Surrounded by dense forests and just a short drive from Plettenberg Bay, Tsala offers the perfect balance of tranquility and adventure. The indigenous flora, ambient lighting, and woven wood-and-stone design blend seamlessly into the forest—creating an immersive, almost magical atmosphere.

Very friendly staff Breakfast Location

Shortage of staff ( maybe )

My wife and I spent 3 incredible nights at Tsala Treetop Lodge for our honeymoon, and it was truly magical. From seamless check-in with welcoming drinks to the moment we left, our experience was flawless. Our treetop suite was incredibly spacious with glorious views, day and night. We loved waking up to panoramic forest vistas from every room and enjoyed the private patio. Stargazing at night from our deck was astonishing. The cozy fireplace was perfect for chilly evenings. Our suite featured a comfortable living room, separate bedroom, and a luxurious bathroom with 2 sinks, a large shower, and a tub. There was even a private outdoor shower and a plunge pool, though the weather was cool for a swim. Dining was great. The staff booked us a table at Zinzi Restaurant for our first night, which we thoroughly enjoyed. For our second night, they arranged a beautiful, romantic in-room dining experience for our honeymoon – candles and a lit fireplace were standout touches. a definite highlight! We mainly relaxed in our room, but also enjoyed leisurely walks through the beautiful gardens, spotting cute animals and birds. The staff were 10/10 – their attentiveness and personalized service made us feel incredibly special. We highly recommend at least a 2-night stay to fully enjoy it; we wished we could've stayed 4, though 3 was wonderful!

My only minor suggestion is a quick heads-up during check-in about housekeeping preferring to clean when guests are out for dinner. It led to a funny moment on our first night, but knowing beforehand would be helpful.

I absolutely loved everything about Tsala. The service was exceptional, the facilities were top-notch, and every detail was thoughtfully taken care of. The villa was luxurious and comfortable, and the overall atmosphere was truly five-star. I had an amazing experience and would highly recommend it to anyone.

Honestly, there was nothing I didn’t like about the property. Everything exceeded my expectations and made for a truly memorable stay.

Everything is more than my expectations

Our expectations were exceeded, from the warm welcome at reception to the thoughtful honeymoon surprises delivered to our room each day. Everything we could possibly need and more was provided in our room. The breakfast at the main lodge became a daily highlight we looked forward to. The team and management were intuitive and attentive throughout our stay.

We visited Tsala Treetop Lodge for our honeymoon and had a fabulous experience. We actually extended our stay an additional two nights because we loved the tranquility of the location. The treehouse rooms are beautifully furnished with a private pool and amazing views. The staff were incredible and we loved the food at both Tsala Treetop Lodge Restaurant and nearby Zinzi.

Amazing and unique place ! Flawless service, staff kindness, special attention for our honeymoon. We ll remember our stay and will come back for sure

I have stayed at this hotel before and was hoping that my family would enjoy it as much as I did. They loved it. We booked a 2 bedroom suite and it didn't dissappoint. The room on stilts overlooking the trees, with amzing views of the forest, with and amazing bathroom and outside shower and your own plunge pool. There was everything you coul think of. The staff were so welcomming and very helpful. there was such a wide selection of choices for breakfast and excellently cooked. We ate at Zinzi restaurant which was a short walk away. It is such a wonderful experience staying at this hotel, I recommend it to everyone.

The property is stunning. The staff outstanding, every detail was perfect. Unforgettable stay!

Everything about Tsala Treetop lodge is outstanding. We were upgraded to a villa as there was a problem with bees in our original suite. The restaurant was also excellent.

The only thing that would make it perfect would be to heat up the pools.

Loved the room, view, team were incredible!
