We are a 3-star self-catering forest lodge, situated in 36 hectares of forest in the Garden Route, 16 kms from the N2. We are off the beaten track and partially off the grid. The nearest town and shops are 20 min away, so be sure to stock up on groceries, we do however have a licensed bush pub (De Adder Padda) onsite serving drinks and refreshments only with large family pool and kiddies splash pool at the entertainment area.
No mask, No entry. All guests are required to wear a face mask when checking in or at the communal areas. Guests will be sent a link to complete the Covid 19 registration check in document. Guests temperatures will be taken when checking in, any guests temperature recorded outside of the normal range (above 38C) will result in the deferment of the booking and the guest will be required to return home.
Each suite is a combination of tent canvas, wood, and glass. As we are an eco-friendly lodge, we are best suited to nature lovers, those wanting something a little unique, quirky, and adventurous; especially when the winds pick up and the odd thunderstorm hits.
Please be aware that you are going to be in the bush. This is not a manicured environment; it is part of the forest. We wont, dont, cant fumigate the forest so if you are someone who doesnt have phobias about flora or fauna; trees, plants, birds, wild animals, insects, spiders, snakes, butterflies, moths, tame animals Teniqua Treetops is the holiday destination for you.

"Stay at tree house"
05 Jul 2018
By Sharon Harris
"Hi stay was ok . Will never come in the winter again. Was just to cold so was unejoyable . 1 room was freezing so nobody slept. As a result left as soon as everybody was up and that was in the dark. Summer might be better. Wind and rain was so cold and did not manage to work out bath as water got cold to quickly was only hot out Tam few seconds. Do nobody showered or bathed.*****************************************************HiWe regret that Sharon and her family left unsatisfied in that it was cold and there was a hot water situation in their tree-house. It was an extreme weather situation and we had no idea that they were unhappy. Had we known at the time we would have done everything possible to make it warmer and more satisfying. We can only hope that Sharon returns to Teniqua Treetops to leave with 100% satisfaction. It was such pleasure having Sharon and the family here and we really regret that they were not happy!Warren Lubbe(Manager for Teniqua Treetops)"

"The place itself needs a new redo, it looks tired and old, furniture, radio in kitchen, toilet also the bedding. We also had some small cochroaches crawling in the kitchen wich is unexceptable."

"Not for me"

By Melanie Koen
"It is a very campy vibe for those who love camping. The only disappointment was that none of the outer doors lock and for us this was a concern as you are in the middle of nowhere and any stranger could just walk in. Zero security. That would be the one thing they could improve on. The rest is an adventure."
"Perfect peace"

"Loved every aspect of our tree house....beautiful views with stunning sunsets on both nights we were there. Comfortable bed with dual control electric blanket and mozzie net if required. We loved sitting on the balcony having a braai in the evenings. The huge bath was lovely. The shower was a bit temperamental as far as getting the water temperature right, but it is the bush after all and wasn't a big deal. Absolutely loved the approx 5.5km hike to the pools and back...reminded us of a cross between Lord of the Rings and the Jungle Book in terms of vegetation. The fairy area was a lovely surprise and the chairs well placed after the STEEP climb! Well worth the effort. The whole experience was everything I dreamed of in terms if staying in a forest. Thank you for providing such a special place for us to unwind and breathe. Highly recommended."
