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!

From the moment we turned up everything was amazing. The front of house (Laula) was FABULOUS . Welcoming drinks, bookings and nothing being a problem was so refreshing. The room was beautiful, fresh flowers and AC on already. We had lunch in the garden restaurant and then a booked supper in Zinzi's where the staff were so accommodating and allowed us to to have a private dining experience down by the pond. It was brilliant from start to finish and having breakfast delivery to our room was just perfect . Thank you to everyone and especially the guys who cleaned our filthy 4x4 and those who drove us around in the golf buggy! Will 100% return and can't recommend this place enough. Professional is a major buzz word and perfect!

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.
