What a fabulous day in white! Some regular guests recently had a lavish cocktail party on our pool deck. Canapes and Cocktails were the order of the day with some amazing local artists to keep the guests enthralled. The SAMA Award-winning instrumental pop group Sterling EQ is made up of electric flutist Carina Bruwer, electric violinist Eriel Huang and electric cellist Ariella Caira. The all-woman supergroup performs more than 120 shows per year and Tintswalo Atlantic was lucky enough to host one of them!

Summer in Cape Town means that the fashion season has started! We were once again selected by renowned photographer Alexa Singer, this time for the swimwear catalogue shoot from swimwear brand LoveWaterLove. LoveWaterLove, South Africa’s hottest swimwear label, is a Cape Town-based company that is now run by Margit Roberts. Margit started the label with the aim of creating high fashion swimwear to compliment all figures. The swimwear is made locally using excellent quality fabric and trims imported from Italy and Spain. The look is fresh, flirty and utterly fabulous- think Bond bikini girls!

We were all pleasantly surprised when Zander Tyler, better known as Jack Parow arrived with his girlfriend Jenna Pietersen to celebrate their anniversary.

His exuberant nature won all the staff over within minutes of his arrival. Despite his somewhat rough, non conformist and partying personality in the public eye he is really just a great down to earth local capetonian. His recent hits which were both chart toppers include 'eksie ou' and hostokolosh'.

When asked about where his inspiration came from he had the following to say' "I bought that Now Monster Hits 4 and Snoop Dog's Doggystyle was on there and since then I always wanted to rap. I was in Standard 3 or 4, that's when you first decide what type of music you like. And I always liked Dr Seuss, I have always liked things that rhyme - its fun I dig it"

What a great musician and local icon! We look forward to seeing Jack and Jenna for their anniversary same time next year!

A two year anniversary brought two of South Africa’s celebrities though our doors recently. Jordy Smith who finished 2^nd in the world on the pro sufing tour in 2012 and Lyndall Jarvis who was voted SA’s sexiest women in 2009.

Jordy in the epitome of a great South African Amabassador and was kind enough to say that Tintswalo Atlantic was “on the the best and most romantic spots he had ever stayed”.

Bending Colours, the surf movie based around Jordy Smith, has been generating buzz since its world premiere on November 5 and its been nominated for best movie in 2012 Surfer Poll Awards. Filmed in exotic locations such as South Africa, La Réunion, Hawaii and Indonesia, the film takes the viewer on an unparalleled cinematic trip showing the beauty, power and soul of surfing at its best.
