The best lodges for a luxurious beach getaway in Mozambique

Mozambique is off the beaten track. The tourism industry is currently still developing and many establishments focus on sustainable hospitality. However, the remote nature of many of Mozambique’s best lodges results in them creating highly exclusive experiences – usually together with excellent levels of luxury.

Such opulent retreats are often located on private beaches (sometimes even private islands) surrounded by crystal-clear waters within reach of some of East Africa’s best diving and snorkelling spots. The food prepared will mostly be delightfully fresh; the service is attentive and these places excel at helping you to enjoy your luxurious beach holiday.

Southern Mozambique combines well with a safari in one of the South African countries while the north is an excellent opportunity for a beach getaway after a trip to Kenya or Tanzania.

Benguerra Lodge

A plunge pool on your private veranda with stunning views across the ocean awaits you at the luxurious Benguerra Lodge. Treat yourself to a pampering massage and end the day with a sundowner at the very cool beach bar made from an old dhow.

The modern villas at Anantaro Bazaruto are bright and spacious, and some even have their own private splash-pool. Numerous activities, the pampering spa and two lovely swimming pools add variety to a relaxing day on the sandy beach - perfect for a luxurious getaway!
