Ngalawa Guesthouse
I absolutely loved this place. It was spotlessly clean and beautifully decorated, Alberto was incredibly helpful and kind and Nely was a really kind and responsive host. It’s within walking distance to the beach and has a lovely pool area as well to enjoy. Would highly recommend.

Vida Lenta - rustic Beachfront House
The house is spacious and access to the beach is great. The surf is strong, but at low tide there are shallow areas great for kids (and adults). The area is a bit remote and uncrowded. Older house but appliances all work. Many bats in the area that come out at nightfall but are harmless.

Love Shack - Unit 27a
Thanks Lloyd for sharing your wonderful holiday home with us. Lovely views and great layout of accommodation and the entertainment areas. Jose was just great yet again. Helpful and onto anything you ask for immediately.

Had a great stay here with my family! The location is perfect(a short walk to the beach), and the AC(a rarity in Moz)was an absolute lifesaver in the Mozambican heat. The daily cleaning was also such a nice surprise! Petal, is a great host, she was super friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Esmeralda and Silvestre were also amazing—very kind and always willing to help. The team even helped us carry our bags, which we really appreciated. I saw another review mention mosquitoes, but honestly, it’s Mozambique—it’s to be expected. That said, we weren’t really bothered at all. There were hardly any mosquitoes during our stay, and as long as you don’t leave the windows open all the time, it’s not an issue. Overall, it was a wonderful stay, and we’d happily come back again!

Ponta do Ouro - MJ Residence
This place was peaceful and lovely, off the main road and very private. the grounds were beautiful and the groundskeeper was so friendly and kind. What a hidden gem. I loved how the kitchen was set up as well. We loved our stay and this is one of the rare places in Ponta with a really comfortable bed!

Thongaland Turtle Lodge - Forest Hideaway House
Our stay was just perfect. Our hosts were amazing, extraordinarily kind and always a great help for everything with a permanent smile as a bonus. Our kids didn't want to leave. Above all, don't hesitate to eat there in the evening, the meals were just perfect with excellent staff. Rick will help you with his advice and to book excursions. Rick, Elise and Maya will make your stay unforgettable. Just thank you
