Available on an exclusive use basis only. Pambele lies on the remote San Sabastian Peninsula near Vilanculos on the southern border of the Bazaruto Archipelago. It is surrounded by miles of porcelain beaches, forested dunes, mangrove trees and tidal sand flats.
The open lounge area looks out onto shallow reef waters and traditional thatch bomas (outside seating areas) create magical shaded areas in and around the infinity pool. All furnishings have a luxurious and authentic African feel. Available on an exclusive use basis only.
The whole of Pambele can only house 10 adults and 4 children in four individual villas. You have a choice between the Pelican, Mazarette & Bangwe, Mangrove and World’s View villas with their own individual characteristics. Each of these villas creates a private space with plush interiors. King-sized double beds are swathed in muslin and outdoor showers are wonderfully romantic. Living areas are spacious enough to relax or interact as needed and there are outdoor and indoor showers. Wooden walkways lead you down to the beach.
Explore the island with trained guides who will share their knowledge of the fauna and flora. Spend days in the shallow crystal clear water where tropical fish, interesting crab families, flamingo flocks and turtles colour the ocean.
