breathtaking views

varied dining

slippery pool area

I had a fantastic time during my stay! The views were breathtaking, especially waking up to the sea each morning, and the dining experience was exceptional, with varied options each day. Sadly, the pool area had a slippery floor that made it a bit treacherous.

lovely pool

fitting option

It was just a fitting option for a weekend adventure in Maputo with great value for money. The pool was lovely and big enough for proper swims without feeling crowded. Be prepared for some delays with food orders.

teenager activities

Our stay was highlighted by breathtaking sea views and an exceptional breakfast with a delightful variety. We also enjoyed the Maisha Spa, where my wife and I found some much-needed relaxation. The hospitality reflected brilliant service, making our family vacation memorable.

My kids wished there were more engaging activities tailored to teenagers.

Must visit for a touch of luxury

The service was exceptional! ! I mean, they had this surprising touch of hospitality when they upgraded my room!

It wasn’t cheap, but for what I received, I’d say it's still reasonable.
