Stayed here June 2026. While the staff was friendly and food good, the property is very run down and is in desperate need of extreme updating. It definitely feels like they are hurting financially, and confused by the number of 5 star reviews. Hard to admit that we felt ripped off for the high price paid for our stay, and it’s not unreasonable to say we expected a better experience. Many of their room furnishings and furniture are broken and need replacing, decking boards are broken and warped with screws and nails sticking up (don’t walk barefoot!). And very weirdly there are only a limited number of drinks that are included in the cost, many drinks (such as a margarita for example) are available at a premium price. Only 2 different beers, 2 red wines, and 2 white wines are available to guests, which is unacceptable for a “all inclusive resort”. For the high cost to stay here, would strongly suggest giving this less than 5 star property (closer to 2) some serious thought before paying the premium price to stay here. Reluctantly giving it 3 stars, just because of the location, staff, and food. Buyer beware!

A heavenly hotel on the edge of Bazaruto Island, an hours boat ride from the Mozambique coast. Beachside villas have everything you could possibly need. Food and drink is to die for and the staff are always friendly and helpful. Loads of stuff to do - snorkelling, diving, tennis, SUP, dune boarding, table tennis, horse riding on the beach and more. Diogo runs the diving and is a brilliant instructor.

One of the best destinations we had so far. Everything was amazing from the location, one of a kind, to the hotel staff. I would recommend over and over again. One of those to repeat.

Whilst not a cheap experience, we would go again in the blink of an eye! The location, the property, the staff were superb. F&B was 9 out of 10 only because the wines that were part of the all inclusive package could have been better and maybe the service coukd have been a little more sophisticated. However, the gentleness and sincerity of the staff and, if you like sea food, then this absolutely more than made up for it. As above, despite a big and beautiful world out there to see and experience, we would go back which, I believe, says it all.
