Teniqua Treetops Tented Tree House Resort
A QUIETLY LIFE-CHANGING EXPERIENCE….
Teniqua Treetops is a unique, tented tree house resort, offering eco accommodation, occupying a position high on the foothills of the ancient Outeniqua mountain range, yet situated along the magical Garden Route, close to the magnificent sea shores of the Western Cape, South Africa.
Set in acres of pristine indigenous forest, on South Africa’s Garden Route, Teniqua Treetops brings you an experience that may be quietly life-changing. Eco-friendly, self-catering, tree houses provide a secluded, romantic honeymoon destination, a haven for nature lovers. A holiday with us will re launch you into the world relaxed, reinvigorated and rejuvenated.
Swim in the cola-coloured water of the remote and unspoiled Karatara river, picnic on its beautiful banks and explore the deep forested gorge. Or chill out on the wooden deck of our swimming complex perched high on the hill, the converted farm dams are fun for both kids and adults.
All our treehouses are self-catering with the emphasis on environmental preservation and the maximum use of natural products and materials in construction and functionality. You’ll love the peace and quiet, the sounds of the forest, river and bird song, and on occasion, the sound of the sea.
Sedgefield (23km) is our nearest village for supplies. It sports a supermarket, restaurants, hotel, post office, famous Saturday morning craft and produce market and a church.
All treehouses have fully equipped kitchen facilities including cookers, microwaves, fridges, and all utensils. Linen is provided and is changed every 3 or 4 days. The tree houses are fully serviced.
Our tree houses offer a unique opportunity to sleep, eat and shower up in the canopy of the forest, surrounded by birdsong and butterflies. Built on hand crafted platforms and situated in carefully chosen beauty spots, they have comfortable tented bedrooms, fully equipped kitchens and leafy luxury bathrooms. Experience a true environmentally friendly accommodation experience.
It’s the ultimate romantic holiday or family fun in the sun – memorable and authentic.
