Staying at Tsala
What does staying in the treetops actually mean here?
The suites and villas are built among the treetops of an age-old indigenous forest, so you look out into the canopy rather than across a garden. The architecture is a large part of why people choose it, and the forest seclusion keeps each unit private from its neighbours.
Where do meals happen?
In a glass-walled dining room, or on the dining deck suspended above the forest floor, which is the place to be for morning sunshine. Dining is a substantial part of the appeal at a lodge that trades on fine fare as much as on its setting.
Is it a good base for the Garden Route?
It is well placed, sitting between the coastal towns of Knysna and Plettenberg Bay in the Western Cape, so you can explore the Garden Route by day or stay put at the lodge. Rates are not published online at the moment, though the page lists a from figure of US$431 per person per night; contact us and we will confirm.
