Azura Benguerra

Overview

Relax in the casual elegance where a relaxed atmosphere awaits you on the northwest coast of the Benguerra Island in the Bazaruto Archipelago. Azura is Mozambique’s first eco-boutique style luxury resort. Particular attention has been paid to the construction of this magnificent lodge, which offers a lot of luxury that you can feel with your bare feet.

All thanks to its location on a stunning stretch of sandy beach lapped by turquoise waters. Azura offers many water fun-filled activities, which can turn your vacation into an unforgettable experience.

The surrounding ocean is part of a national park, which offers exceptional snorkeling and diving services. Azura has a certified PADI dive center that offers deep-sea fishing in the high seas.

However, one of the best things to do is absolutely nothing, as you can just sit on the shady pillows of Salas on the beach and watch the dhows navigate in the clear sea

Each of the Azura Benguerra’s 14 private, air-conditioned beach villa is very spacious.

Complete with air conditioner and an extremely comfortable bed. It also features a huge bathroom and an infinity pool that overlooks the turquoise Indian Ocean.

The style is elegant beach-chic with beautifully carved furniture and traditional artwork. A short walk along the soft sand and there comes the room with a thatched roof and a couch where you can escape from the heat and relax while reading a good book.

Each villa also has its own butler, so you can relax while knowing that an ice-cream or a delicious drink is at your disposal. And four are linked together for a family option.
