The largest and most conventional of all the lodges in the Bazaruto Archipelago, Anantara Bazaruto with its 44 villas appeals to travellers wanting to head off the beaten track but still enjoy loads of activities and facilities - a halfway house if you like between a lodge and a resort.

Taken over a few years ago by top lodge operator andBeyond who transformed the lodge with an extensive and luxurious renovation, the original lodge built on this stunning island in the Bazaruto Archipelago is again one of the very best!

Our favourite Mozambique lodge of all - a wonderful blend of six-star luxury and laid-back island style offering sensational dining experiences and gorgeous thatched rooms (all with private plunge pools!) lying literally on the endless beach. Simply very, very cool and vibeyFor years !
