Amazing lodge, right on the beach with incredible team who always strived to give first class service. Beautifully decorated cottages, all set in well manicured tropical gardens.

The hotel manager is amazing and friendly and so was the staff. We went to Mozambique for the horse safari and added this hotel for our last couple of days. Food was fantastic. Would recommend!

Lovely honeymoon
We came here on our honeymoon and was a lovely place to stay. It's really quiet with not much to do and not many other restaurants etc near by but the food in the hotel is lovely and there is lots of choice. As a majority good service and friendly staff. Bar does close at 9:30pm which seemed quite early. Breakfast was nice but I recommend not leaving it last minute as often things like croissants didn’t get replenished. Overall a lovely trip and a great hotel. Good choice!

Amazing place and good, kind service Just watch out when it comes to organize some day trip: ask for the exact terms and conditions (ie kind of boat used to visit the islands) because you may experience some bad surprise since the service it is outsourced from the hotel

Amazing Vilanculos beach lodge
The lodge was pleasant and homely to stay in. The family suite was perfect for us with two king beds. The rooms were kept spotlessly clean. The food and drinks were amazing. The lodge is located near restaurants and a few steps from the beach. We did canoeing offered for free by the lodge, massage, quad bikes, and visited two islands where we did snorkeling. Other than that, thanks to Angela and Sara made our stay so comfortable. They would take their time to guide and ensure we were comfortable. Not forgetting the servants, Lovejoy, Felipe, Sergio and others not mentioned.

Great Stay at Vilankulos Beach Lodge!!
Had a great stay at the Vilankulos Beach Lodge. Well run, staff are friendly and attentive. Location to the beach was amazing, pool was always blue and clean. Angela the manager was there to welcome us in person and see us off in person too. Wifi is pretty good in almost all areas. Did want a better seafood menu - prawns were average ito taste. Will definitely go back though.

This property sits on a prime location with refreshing sea views. The pool, garden, palm trees are all well maintained for a perfect view. There are flowers all over the place to keep it natural which adds to the beauty of this place. Food was ok, we were actually spoilt for choice as they have a lot to offer. The pricing is actually average so its very much affordable. On the downside: The hotel offers little in terms of inhouse activities, which i am sure they can try to revamp. Despite the hot weather, there is no bar fridges in the rooms, no TV, no DStv, and no personal fitness facilities. The service was generally good, we were happy with everything with our recommendations below Suggestions: Adding Gym (Personal Fitness Facilities) Adding: Cable TV in the rooms Adding: Bar Fridges in the room

Great location right by the beach. Good sized very clean infinity pool, well kept grounds and facilities. Great selection of food at the restaurant ,friendly staff. Only complaint is a couple of noisy roosters on a neighboring property.
