Condé Nast Traveler has revealed the results of its 37th Readers’ Choice Awards, recognizing two of Tintswalo’s iconic properties in South Africa.
Tintswalo Safari in the Greater Kruger area was highlighted as one of Condé Nast Traveler readers’ favorite places to view wildlife in South Africa. It scored 96.49, securing the 7th spot in the Top Resorts in South Africa category.
In the Top Hotels in South Africa category, Tintswalo Atlantic was ranked 12th with a score of 95.83. Condé Nast Traveler describes the Cape Town hotel as “perched on stilts between ancient milkwood trees, with wood-and-glass suites so close to the pounding waves that it’s possible to toss pebbles into the rock pools from your private deck.”
Over 575,000 Condé Nast Traveler readers across the United States participated, rating their travel experiences to provide a comprehensive look at the places they anticipate revisiting. The 2024 Readers’ Choice Awards, known as the travel industry’s longest-running and most prestigious accolades, remain the ultimate symbol of excellence in the travel sector, including resorts, hotels, cruises, spas, and islands.
Tintswalo’s unique bush lodges and beach boutique hotels are situated in some of South Africa’s most magnificent and unspoiled locations. Lisa Goosen, CEO of Tintswalo Collection, said, “We are delighted to add the prestigious 2024 Condé Nast Traveler’s Readers’ Choice Awards to our list of accolades and are proud to offer our guests a unique Tintswalo experience to showcase our beautiful country.”
Tintswalo is a family-owned and managed conservation tourism company, comprising six properties situated in five unique locations across Southern Africa. In the local Shangaan language, the name Tintswalo means “the intangible feeling of love, gratitude, and peace bestowed upon someone offering you a meaningful and worthy gift.”
