    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.

    A lot of options, fantastic food. Squeaky clean unit with an electric kettle and glassware. Exceptionally comfortable beds, amazing and stunning location down near the water front.

    Unbeatable location, awesome and sensational breakfast with a huge variety of food. Comfortable bed in the deluxe king room, plus a mini fridge bar, climate control, and a personal safe. Location right by the Costa do Sol beach Restaurants and bars, nearby sites and the art market and basically around the corner from the Polana. Nearby Volare - great place to chill out.

    elegant hotel
    dated bathroom
    limited breakfast

    The place oozed elegance, and the staff were super friendly. Just wish the bathroom updates were better and the breakfast could've had more variety.

    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.

    really good breakfast
    great service
    teenager activities

    We also enjoyed the Maisha Spa, where my wife and I found some much-needed relaxation. The hospitality reflected great service.

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