The best hotels South

Luxury, charm and exoticism characterize this growing resort. Located on the quiet beach of Barra, the 12 individual suites, air-conditioned and ultra-comfortable, with private terrace and panoramic view, distill a feeling of absolute well-being. Connected to each other by a wooden walkway on stilts, they blend harmoniously into the environment. Families welcome. Numerous activities (diving, paddle, kayak, quad...), beach restaurant, swimming pool, wellness center and kids club available. Warm and personalized welcome.

Alone, as a couple, on honeymoon or as a family, Bahia Mar is the place to be. You will be welcomed under a high and robust straw hut, open on a magnificent garden overlooking the ocean. The spacious and contemporary suites, nestled in the vegetation below, make Bahia Mar a hotel of choice. The establishment has a large swimming pool - with a bar in the middle -, a wellness center, with a gym (yoga classes, fitness) and massage rooms. As for the food, typical Mozambican dishes are on the menu, always tasty.

Indulge yourself in the sumptuous sunsets, the big blue and the sweetness of life. Day and night, you can't get enough of this paradisiacal setting in which the Villas do Indico are located. The 10 luxury suites and 2 fully equipped villas will seduce travelers who wish to find refuge away from the world, facing the lagoon and the islands of Bazaruto just across the way, in a welcoming and relaxed atmosphere. The lodge also has a restaurant, a beautiful infinity pool, a camping area with two basic bungalows, and a diving club.

The Palm Grove is a modest hotel very central. Perfect for a family vacation, in rustic bungalows under the coconut trees facing the sea, or in some large self-catering houses. The lodge is small and quiet. The activities are ideal to enjoy the magical environment: diving (PADI), snorkeling, quad biking, sea safaris, fishing, but also simply beach volleyball games on the beach or a horseback ride at sunset... We enjoy the terrace directly on the sea and the pool. The prices are reasonable.

Located right in front of the lagoon, the cottages are simple and pleasant: perfect for contemplating the sunsets, what a show! Moreover, the new owners have planned some renovations soon. Here you can enjoy the brai, the barbecue, after buying your fresh fish at the Bilene market. On the other side of the lagoon, on the ocean side, you can practice various water sports (diving, fishing...). The atmosphere is friendly. On weekends, live concerts liven up the evenings in Palmeiras. A restaurant is available on site.

It stands, pristine white at the end of the main sandy road of Tofo. Almost all the rooms have a view of the sea. If one does not necessarily come for the quality of its hotel service, the bar and the terrace of the restaurant of the hotel Tofo Mar have an ideal situation, at the same time directly on the beach and in the neuralgic heart of the village, which is really the strong point of this place which would need some renovations.

Under the direction of Pachiça pension in Inhambane, this former campsite is reborn from its ashes. It is far from the beach of Tofinho, but close to another, a little more south.

A kitchen area is also available. It's simple even summary, but clean and feet in the sand. Ideally located between the city centre and the beach. An honest case.

In wood, on piles also, this lodge larger and more affordable than the first, however it has no charm. But let us not forget our pleasure: luxury, comfort, swimming pool, water activities, excursions on the nearby islands, everything is there. The decor is extremely neat but more agreed (the dining room becomes almost dull). All bungalows are facing the bay with individual access to the beach. At this point in the island, paradise is still there.

The chalets are basic cubes on stilts, which are installed in the middle of the mangrove and connected between them by grates. Restoration that includes picnic baskets for those who rise at dawn (bird watchers or, most often, fishermen). It is a place reserved for fishing, but with the principle of immediately releasing its catch. Sun lifts, with the scenery of the islands cutting up, are magnificent.

Any pension, more or less clean, which has in the rear a beautiful view on the lagoon. The reception is nice.

Simple campsite, situated on the heights of a dune, side lagoon, and close to a large and beautiful beach, very little frequented. We must come here in almost complete autonomy. The site still has a large health bloc (6 showers and 4 W.C.).

Located in a renovated colonial building, in the heart of the city, the rooms are bright and clean. air conditioning, TV, and mini bar. 

On a beach 30 km south of Inhambane, Jeff's Palm Resort offers home, cottage and small cabin. Cahlets are minimum for 4 persons and maximum for 8 people. Private bathroom (with hot water), current electricity, kitchen in self catering. The houses can accommodate 8 to 10 people, kitchen, veranda and sea view.

In this small 3-star hotel, all rooms have a balcony with an ocean view, a true luxury that is appreciated at reasonable prices. The hotel's slight overhang on the lushly vegetated hillside offers a beautiful panorama of unspoiled nature and the lovely white sandy beach of Zavora below. The swimming pool and restaurant blend into this privileged setting. The hotel is unique in that it offers horseback riding on the beach and around the beautiful lakes, as well as diving, snorkeling and hiking.

Here, no more noise, only the sound of birds singing. The Serenity is aptly named, especially outside of the South African holidays. Situated at the end of the lagoon, it can be reached by the beach. In front of the white houses with blue roofs, a few boats dodel at the water's edge. Inside, the uncluttered decoration is reminiscent of a seaside house. Each terrace has its own braai: you grill your fish in front of the lagoon after a last dive in the pool or lagoon. And the holidays can begin, peacefully.

This complex of self catering villas is interesting for its prices and the quality of the houses. The complex is located on a beautiful beach right in front, planted with palm trees and with a very white sand bank that makes the water turquoise where the kitesurfing center is located, on the south coast of Vilankulo. The complex has one 3-bedroom villa, one 2-bedroom villa, and three double villas, one of which has its bathroom outside (a little less expensive). We like the basic but sufficient equipment of the rooms and the kitchen, and the Wifi modem by house.

This hotel is located on the beach, north of the city, facing the Bazaruto archipelago. The beachside bungalows and double rooms are very nicely furnished and decorated, at affordable prices. A 3-bedroom family villa with private pool has an upstairs terrace with an incredible view of the ocean. Casa Cabana also has a restaurant on the sand (the Casbah), where the food is good. On the beach, the women of the village parade with their fresh fish on their heads... Kitesurfing lessons are offered next door. A good address.

Peri Peri Divers is a dive center located in Tofo. It offers a range of diving services, including diving courses, ocean safari excursions and snorkeling. The center is run by a passionate team of experienced divers. Steve, originally from the UK, is a soccer fanatic and food enthusiast.

These villas are distant from one another and melt into the landscape of dunes and greenery. Inside, they offer very beautiful duplex volumes. Activities: fishing first of all, but also steps, snorkeling, sand surfing, bird observation, etc. It is worth climbing the dunes to offer a panorama on the lake.
