Teniqua Treetops

One of the best getaways we've ever had. What an awesome setting. The movie Avatar comes to mind. Everything is laid on - only need to bring your food and toothbrush. We woke up to find two louries outside, with their tufted heads. Then did an hour's sheltered forest walk before it got too hot. Well maintained pathways and clearly signposted. Next day, down to the rock pool. Another beautiful and peaceful setting. It's a must. But be warned, it's very steep so coming back up will test your fitness level. Private sandy beach. Fresh river water pool overlooked by a wall of trees and a series of caves. Stunning. Back on deck the Loerie came to check if there were any crumbs lying around and happy to pose for photos. We'll be back.

What a lovely place this is. We stayed in the Lourie cabin, a charming wood structure with a private sunken deck overlooking the forest, a romantic bath with windows also facing the forest, a very comfy bed with a mosquito and towels cunningly folded to resemble swans, and a nice little kitchen. The walk to the rock pools through lush forest is steep but short and well worth the effort. Overall, it was perfect.

Teniqua Treetops was recommended to us by a colleague and we were so happy with our stay! The place is gorgeous, we saw lots of interesting birds, the staff were friendly and helpful, and the treetop house had everything we needed. I had one of the most relaxing showers of my life looking out into the trees and over the mountains. We ordered some food from them and everything was very fresh and delicious. The portions were large too! Overall, we loved our stay here and would highly recommend this place to others.
