Beautiful place

This is a really lovely hotel. Felt super safe with nice food and beautiful rooms. Staff are very helpful and lovely. The only thing I would say is that I couldn’t go straight onto the beach from my room which is a short walk to the access point but I could nevertheless see it from my balcony. There are some building works in the area which didn’t affect me. I really appreciated the airport pick up and drop off too. I would come again.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff are amazing, very kind and thoughtful. Very professional. As a solo female traveler I felt very safe in the property. The beach are was quite dirty as the fishermen litter the area with plastics and other environmental hazards. Also environmental concerning was the sand bags that have been placed to prevent flooding. I am very environmental conscience and did not appreciate that this will interfere with the natural dynamic interchange of material between beach and dunes disrupting the natural landform. Also the paper towels used to wipe hands after washing hands instead of using towels or biodegradable papers are an environmental concern. Also the glasses and cups were cleaned in the room and I thought it was very unhygienic The food was absolutely delicious and the drinks especially the Mai Tai was amazeballs. Every single dish was perfecto! The resort generally is very hospitable and responsive to guests. Very flexible and happy to accommodate your needs. I totally would recommend the resort if you are looking for a relaxing escape! Thank you Sentidos

INCRÍVEL! O hotel é maravilhoso, as praias lindas, a comida deliciosa! Sem falar na qualidade de atendimento, os moçambicanos são muito atenciosos! Além disso, a decoração é linda, os quartos amplos e exatamente como nas fotos (ou ainda mais lindos ao vivo). Amamos o país e o hotel! Voltaríamos com certeza!

Beautiful designer boutique resort

Beautiful resort-location is right on the ,often deserted, beach. If you want peace and comfort, this is the place. Only a year old, all rooms are very large, free standing villa-like, with bathtub overlooking the beach, outdoor shower, large outdoor balcony area , all very private. Beautifully furnished with lovely toiletries and 2 bottles free water each day. Points to note re room- no face clothes, iron, or hairdryer but can request from house-keeping. Spa villa- Free 15min Massage offered for each of us, we paid extra extended it to 1 hr- very good massage.The restaurant and gorgeous pool area , right on the beach is about 300m from villas, all connected by timber walkway. Food and drinks are very good, well priced and staff are delightful. We stayed 4 nights and ate exclusively at resort - was about 300usd in total

Amazing Boutique Hotel/Resort

I’d definitely stay here again! This is easily one of the best hotels I’ve stayed in, ever. The deluxe rooms are impeccably furnished with all the right touches to make your stay perfect. The staff is extremely attentive to your every need. They always go the extra mile, without making you feel they going out of their way to help. All in a days work I suppose. The activities are great. We did the ocean safari and ATV riding, but there are several other activities for guests to participate in.

Hotel de luxo, localizado numa praia paradisíaca, com óptimas instalações e um restaurante divinal. Nada a apontar. Óptimas férias, funcionários muito simpáticos, quarto lindíssimo com banheira com vista para o mar, chuveiro à entrada para tirar areia e chuveiro interior espaçoso. O restaurante merece a visita mesmo que se fique noutro hotel só pela comida e pela vista.
