Azura

Azura is located on Benguerra Island in southern Mozambique and offers stylish and comfortable accommodation in 14 beachside villas and one presidential villa.

Azura is located on a stunning stretch of white sand beach on the northwest coast of Benguerra Island, overlooking Bazaruto Island and the sandbank that is Pansy Island.

Billing itself as Mozambique’s first eco-boutique hotel the lodge offers accommodation in 14 beautiful thatched villas, each with private plunge pool and sun deck. Villas overlook the beach and are decorated in a modern African style with large bathrooms and outdoor (as well as indoor) showers.

Guests tend to gather each evening in the funky Star Bar before the evening meal is served either in the open-fronted dining room or on the beach.

The more active guest will enjoy the opportunity to dive and fish from the resort while those looking for relaxation will love being pampered in the new spa (opening soon).
