Where to stay in Tinley Manor

A small village of holiday homes and guest houses, with a big new resort just up the coast.

In the village

Most places to stay in Tinley Manor are holiday homes, self-catering apartments and a few guest houses, many within a short walk of the beach. It’s quiet, with a family feel, and there is only one road in.

Club Med South Africa

Just north of the village, Club Med opened its first South African resort in 2026. It is all-inclusive, with 411 rooms and suites, a kids’ club, a spa and its own surf school.
