16 villas with traditional thatched roofs and stylish African inspired
interiors all overlooking sandy beaches. Some call Azura the most
elegant beach lodge on all of the Archipelagos. The accommodation is
beautiful and marries perfectly with the environment. Azura is a place
of incredible beauty where sunsets, private dinners and great service
will be remembered.
The rooms are private and have bath-tubs big enough for two as well as outside showers. Comfortable beds and sliding doors leading onto an intimate deck and sala (beach bed) where you can enjoy stretching views from the infinity pool to the wide ocean. In the evening, beautiful starry skies are dotted with constellations, shooting stars and a riveting milky way.
Azura’s bar area and stylish lounge, combined with outdoor decks and chill room creates a relaxed atmosphere where you can expect the ultimate holiday environment. The chill room has internet access and a large flat-screen television. The curio shop supplies basic necessities as well as hand-picked African curios, clothes and art. Enjoy massages and treatments in the recently finished spa. The lodge has a dive centre with a dive pool where you can practice before taking on the open waters. Otherwise enjoy a work-out in the gym or spend time in the fishing centre.
This is a luxury lodge, but if you are looking for something developed and commercial this island is not for you.
The lodge is one of the few that has actually taken cognisance of the local people and has been built with that in mind. Expect a quiet and relaxing getaway where all you need to do is focus on feeling the tension slip from your fingers.
