Tintswalo at Boulders

Away from the crowds and the hustle of Cape Town city, the new Tintswalo at Boulders Boutique Villa offers gorgeous seaside accommodation in the charming suburb of Simon’s Town in Cape Town. Known for its pristine swimming beaches, and with the colony of penguins as star attraction, the North-facing Tintswalo at Boulders is located on route to Cape Point, enjoying sublime views of the Indian Ocean. The lodge is situated a stone’s throw from Cape Town’s prettiest beaches, best swimming spots and has stunning views across False Bay and the Hottentots Holland mountains in the distance.

Expect warm, laid back but attentive service matched with elegant and serene surroundings. All nine rooms are named after famous ships and have been romantically decorated by owners Lisa and Gaye Corbett. In the wintertime (May to August) you will want to choose a premier suite so as to cosy up with your very own gas fireplace.

Much like the rest of Cape Town, the food is lovingly prepared and locally sourced here at Tintswalo Boulders Boutique. Since breakfast is the only meal served here, wake from your slumber to a banquet of fresh fruit, yoghurts, homemade muesli, local cheese, fresh breads and pastries, along with an adaptive menu of whatever they feel like cooking. From spinach and feta quiches, mushroom fritters to a hot cooked breakfast, you will sure be given enough fuel for your days exploring Cape Town.

By staying here, you are just a few minutes’ drive to the picturesque Victorian high street, Simon Town. From here you can book onto an array of exciting water-based activities like kayaking with seals and shark cage diving for those seeking more of a thrill!

Tintswalo at Boulders may also be booked exclusively as a 9-suite private villa for fun family getaways, special celebrations or large groups of friends travelling together. A private chef is available on request.
