Beautiful Bazaruto


We truly enjoyed our stay at Pestana Lodge on Bazaruto Island, it was a gorgeous setting and the accommodation was lovely. The food was fantastic and there were plenty of water activities to keep one busy. My only complaint is the lack of communication between the Maputo office and the island. Payment was difficult due to the lack of communication, and we had changed dates which had not been relayed to the island. Other than that it was a fab trip.

Pestana Bazaruto Lodge Hotel is situated in the largest island of the Bazaruto Archipelago, approximately 600 km to the north of Maputo, the capital of Mozambique. The island is 35 Km in length and 7 km across at the widest point, and is a little piece of paradise!

There are five weekly flights from Maputo to Vilanculos, one daily from Johannesburg to Vilanculos and bi weekly flights from Nelspruit and Harare to Vilanculos. From there, daily transfers to Bazaruto Island are available and coincide with most of the flights arriving from Maputo and South Africa. This transfer is done by a small 9-seater plane and the flight lasts approximately 20 minutes. This is a memorable trip

It is possible to accommodate private charters and planes.

Disruption should be minimal but in the meantime, lodge guests can make use of our complimentary shuttle service to Dolphin Bay Beach.
