Anantara Bazaruto Island Resort

On the western edge of the beautiful Bazaruto Island, looking across to Mozambique, the luxurious Anantara Bazaruto is an expansive but peaceful resort ideal for those after a blend of relaxation and adventure.

44 beach, sea view and pool villas come in a range of sizes, some more secluded for honeymooners and others larger – ideal for families or friends. Constructed from indigenous materials such as reed, soft fringed thatch and wood, the villas sit back amidst the unspoiled tropical surrounds.

For those looking to indulge in switching off, the soft sandy beach and adult only swimming pools are spots some real peace and quite, and there is the thoroughly well equipped Anantara Spa.

However, where this place really shines is with the range of activities on offer. Go in search of dugongs, turtles and whales on scuba dives and snorkelling excursions, try your hand at deep sea fishing, water skiing and wake boarding, or take sunset dhow cruises out to spot dolphins. There are also cooking classes, horse rides along the beach and cultural tours to discover the local culture.

Cuisine here is a real treat, too, with flame grilled seafood plucked fresh from the Indian Ocean, sundowner cocktails and some unforgettable private dining experiences.
