Vacation rentals in Matola

Great host, great place, and nice location. I will stay here again when I come back to Maputo.

Candida's location is great. It is quite central, as other guests have previously mentioned - with nearby grocery shops, restaurants, banks (ATMs), and bus stops (but I mainly walked). As a host Candida was great! She gave me practical tips and information, and also checked that I felt safe, comfortable and satisfied with everything. The room is actually bigger than it looks in the photo, and it receives nice natural light, which I like (but one can block the light with curtains, too). I would definitely love to stay here whenever I am back in Maputo.

This place is absolutely outstanding. If you are looking for a true Oasis outside of the city, though still close enough; than this is your spot. Ancha and her husband Ben build the perfect Oasis for themselves over the years, which they are now sharing with guests. You will have a whole house, with all the amenities you need. A beautiful designed swimmingpool. They will offer you all the privacy you need, but if you need their help; they will help you in anything you need. A stunning Botanical garden is walking distance. The optional diner is also real good!

I stayed here during a very tense political situation for Mozambique and Maimuna was incredibly helpful, responsive, and accommodating when I had to extend my stay at the last minute due to flight cancellations. I still felt safe in the neighborhood, which is lovely and secure, and walking distance to plenty of stores and restaurant options. Maimuna’s father, a retired historian with a library to die for (an unlisted perk of the space) was a much needed rich source of information and context for what was happening outside. My Mozambique trip was cut short and limited my exploration to Maputo but this couldn’t have been a better spot to be in given the situation. I hope to return to Mozambique during brighter times and this will be the first place I book when I do.

A Room at Romina's At Romina’s, my friend, the air sings sweet, A concert of colors where journeys meet. Two-legged wanderers, with hearts set free, Discover hidden beauties, of vibrant dolls to see. Carpe diem, oh journeyman, let your spirit soar, No port can bind you, but love's open door. Across the vast waters, our stories intertwine, In the warmth of her home, where art and hearts align. She conquered her fears, with grace in her stride, In a sanctuary of dreams, where dancers abide. So come, dear traveler, to Maputo’s empty streets, For a room at Romina's, where the povo call for rights. In every painting’s stroke, in every shared laugh, Her art whispers stories, a beautiful path. In this haven of warmth, let your spirit roam, For a room at Romina’s, you’ll always find home.

Thank you. It is a characterful sweet little spot that was suitable for us. Thank you Shila!
