Vilanculos Beach Lodge

Vilanculos Beach Lodge is situated in the small costal town of Vilanculos, in the subtropical province of Inhambane. The town, with friendly people and a lively atmosphere, offers the perfect base from which to explore the picturesque Bazaruto Archipelago and the Bazaruto National Park.

The Archipelago offers some of the world's best snorkelling, diving and big game fishing. The islands are pristine in their natural beauty and diverse ecologies. The coral reefs are profuse with a diversity of tropical fish and turtles, and are amongst the most pristine in the Western Indian Ocean. Dolphins are seen year round and whales are seasonal visitors to the Archipelago.

The lodge is constructed from natural indigenous elements of thatch and local hardwood sambiri poles which have been combined in perfect harmony with plaster walls and wood frame doors and windows. The result is the relaxed yet stylish finish.

The property extends right on to the beach and the lodge buildings are set back about 100m up the ridge, overlooking the sea.

The large comfortable couches in the lounge provide the perfect place to relax indoors and the main bar is equally well-positioned overlooking the lush gardens, palm trees and pool in the distance.

The Luxury Chalets are positioned on the 100m drop to the beach, and each patio faces the ocean and offers exceptional views of the sunrise over the ocean. Large glass doors and windows allow an abundance of natural light to enter the rooms.

The Villa is perfect for those looking for more private, exclusive and personalized accommodation, and is located a short drive from the lodge. It can comfortably accommodate up to 14 guests in 5 bedrooms with 5 bathrooms.
