Tintswalo has once again earned international recognition, with four of its properties honoured in Tripadvisor’s prestigious 2026 Travelers’ Choice Awards.
Leading the accolades is Tintswalo Atlantic, the award-winning boutique hotel perched on the slopes of Chapman’s Peak in Cape Town, which achieved Tripadvisor’s coveted ‘Best of the Best’ distinction. This accolade places the property among the top 1% of accommodation listings worldwide on what is known as the world’s largest travel guidance platform.
Three other Tintswalo properties, namely Tintswalo Safari, Tintswalo Waterberg and Tintswalo Boulders, were also named Travellers’ Choice Award winners, ranking among the top 10% of hospitality listings globally.
Tripadvisor’s annual awards are based entirely on genuine guest reviews and ratings submitted over a 12-month period, making it one of the travel industry’s most trusted indicators of guest satisfaction and excellence.
The recognition reinforces Tintswalo’s reputation for delivering distinctive luxury hospitality experiences in some of South Africa’s most spectacular locations. ‘We are deeply grateful to every guest who took the time to share their experience on Tripadvisor,’ says Lisa Goosen, the CEO of Tintswalo.
‘These awards are especially meaningful because they are based on authentic feedback from travellers themselves. To be recognised among the world’s top hospitality destinations is a wonderful endorsement of our exceptional teams, who consistently go above and beyond to create memorable experiences for our guests.’
Laurel Greatrix, Chief Communications Officer of the Tripadvisor Group congratulated Tintswalo on its Tripadvisor’s Travelers’ Choice Awards. ‘Earning a place among the top percentage of listings globally is no small feat. It reflects the lasting impression made on travellers who took the time to go online and leave a review about their experience. Travellers look to Tripadvisor’s ‘Best of the Best’ in particular, as a trusted guide to the world’s top destinations and experiences and this year’s results will no doubt inspire even more visitors in 2026 and beyond!’
