A really nice hotel next to the port
Excellent value seaside accommodation. Room offers stunning ocean views and is well-maintained. Cleanliness and comfort are top-notch. The hotel's upkeep is evident throughout. Highlight was enjoying breakfast on the terrace, taking in the morning seascape. Considering the price, this hotel is an outstanding choice for travellers seeking quality and views on a budget. 100 quid mark

Wonderful, restored art deco hotel with standard amenities and wonderful staff. Special thanks to Paolo for all his help in arranging transport to Tofo given the political protests. FYI, the hotel is some distance from the main town and ATMs - perhaps 30 minute walk. But the main boat tour operators to Bazaruto will pick you up on the beach in front of the hotel.

We had a 5 night stay in Dec25. The staff were very welcoming and warm, with a smile. The buffet breakfast was simple but nice, and there was a Chef cooking individual egg facility for omelettes, etc. The hotel buildings, layouts, terraces, beach access and 2x pools were fine physically, clean and presentable, offering sun and shade. Our room was of good size and had a great little balcony to sit out on. However, the Management need to prioritise resources to ensuring reported faults are attended to promptly, so that guests are not lacking in functional amenities (eg. in the room). We had reported 5 issues, of which none were fixed before we left. Perhaps it is our taste in music / ambience, but we found the attractive bar area swamped by the TV sports channel, only being watched by the barman! And the restaurant background music was quite lound and bassy, of a modern hip genre, not in keeping with the colourful colonial style of the buildings. We enjoyed our stay, but it could be so much better if more thought went into the audio ambience and ALL room functionality worked.

Ocean view gem
Beautiful Hotel, the room, dining area, breakfast area, all have views of the ocean. The staff is very friendly Frankie. They could charge more for this place, and I’d still pay it.!!

super frühstücksbuffet! schönes & sehr sauberes zimmer mit gutem bett & funktionierendem bad. nur die klimaanlage hatte ihre tücken. das personal war sehr freundlich.!das essen war sehr gut, aber es dauerte jedes mal sehr lange, bis es kam & war zweimal nicht das, was wir bestellten. die service-mitarbeitenden sollten nachfragen, wenn sie unsicher sind, oder sich die bestellung aufschreiben.
