Anantara Bazaruto Island Resort

Out stay was excellent! The property is beautiful and the staff incredibly friendly. We really loved exploring the different lounge areas and enjoying the view. All our meals were excellent, especially the local seafood. The tours are highly recommended! We did the sand dunes tour and took in a beautiful sunset while sand boarding. And the snorkel day trip gave us a chance to se a different island and ended with a private bbq lunch on the beach. It felt very luxurious! Anantara offers a great blend of relaxation and adventure, all delivered with impeccable service. It was the perfect getaway!

Heaven on earth. It is exactly what you're looking for. Me and my wife are now making plans to return.

I have to admit, I am not a morning person, so having the lodge face West, meant that I could enjoy spectacular sun sets over the sea between the mainland and the lodge. I love that the beach units alternate one forward one back which enhances your privacy. Clearly the lodge is ideally positioned with the imposing sand dunes on the east coast and the immaculate white sandy beach which stretches for miles. The high/low tides being a different but interesting challenge so remember to bring slops or shoes you don’t mind getting wet. The staff are super friendly and keen to assist anytime. Perhaps lean a few Portuguese phrases to make your interaction a bit easier. We made use of the 6 hour visit to Paradise Island and were treated like royalty - give it a try. Although there are quite few mozzies, it is not a Malaria area, but do bring anti-mozzie spray. The beds do have mozzie nets.

Wonderful luxury accommodation with a gorgeous sandy beach and beautiful warm and clear blue sea. Great excursion options including snorkelling and diving on the nearby coral reef

Incredible location with superb ocean view from every room. Service and room condition are not always at five star level which is the reason for the 4 out of 5 instead of 5/5. We experienced nearly all extra activities offered (spa, dune surf and several snorkelling tour). All great although quite pricey (considering the cost of the hotel, would seem reasonable to offer those at a discounted value as they are important to fully benefit of the exceptional location). We experienced a few issues when we arrived and resolution could have been faster considering the level of the hotel. Food and drink option altough reasonably good could be improved (particularly the breakfast and evening buffet which are not always replenished with some cold food). Anyhow the incredible location helps to forget all the minor issues experienced during the stay but value for money could be improved a bit following our recommendations.
