Tintswalo in the Shangaan language means the intangible feeling of love, gratitude and peace that you bestow upon someone who has given you a meaningful and worthy gift. And this is just what you will experience during your stay! The Tintswalo suites are authentically decorated to recall the pioneering times of the nineteenth century African explorers. The air-conditioned suites along the banks of the seasonal Nwaswitsontso River provide supreme comfort and privacy, effortless birding, as well as the opportunity to view a large variety of big game right from the deck. The indoor/outdoor showers lead off spacious bathrooms which opens out onto a private plunge pool and loungers for relaxing under the African Sun. Surrounded by the Greater Kruger National Park, the Manyeleti is a pristine wilderness reserve abounding in big five game, spectacular bird-life, and unique for its minimal vehicle density thereby offering a truly exclusive safari experience. Game viewing at Tintswalo takes place on foot or in individually seated open landrovers. The vehicles are equipped with spotlights for night viewing, radios for communication with the lodge and other guides and of course mosquito repellent. Walks in the reserve are guided through the ever-changing environment of the African bush. A visit to the local community is an experience to see the dynamics of the local communities and how life in Africa is lived in this day and age. After a long day's exploration in the bush, the Elan Vitál spa specializes in hands-on treatment for both men and women utilizing concentrated plant-based Clarins and Jessica products to stimulate all the senses. Tintswalo’s chefs are trained in both South African and international cooking styles, and plated meals are served in elegant dining areas, the romantic cellar or out under the African night sky.
Tintswalo Manor House is situated within the Tintswalo Concession, boasting a crystal blue swimming pool, deep shaded patio and traditional boma. Downstairs the Manor House has 3 en-suite air-conditioned twin or double bedrooms. One of the bedrooms has an optional child's room which leads off it. Upstairs is the main double en-suite bedroom with a beautiful view of far off bushveld. Dining at the Manor House is enjoyed on the patio or in the open air boma under the awesome Manyeleti night sky. The Manor is ideal for small groups or families and the Manor House is also booked on an exclusive basis, so you will have the house to yourselves and a private vehicle, guide, butler and chef. Manor House guests may enjoy the facilities of the Élan Vital spa at the Tintswalo Main Lodge as well.
