The Luxury accommodation of AndBeyond on Benguerra Island
Let’s talk about a revamped island lodge on an island somewhere in the Indian Ocean. Let’s talk about the stylish and chic AndBeyond Lodge, located on the beautiful Benguerra Island, part of the famous Bazaruto Archipelago in Mozambique.
A short boat ride or helicopter flip from Vilanculos, tourist centre and home to the whale shark, this is the first lodge ever established on Benguerra island and today it rates as one of the best holiday destinations in Africa.
Thousands of years ago, this second largest island in the chain of 6 picturesque isles broke away from the mainland and Portuguese explorers called it Santa Antonio. Tourists love its serenity, gorgeous villas and range of activities from horse riding and dune boarding to deep sea fishing, diving and sailing.
Benguerra Island is a national park and home to fascinating animals and plants thanks to its incredible ecosystems of forest, grassland, wetlands and lakes. There are even freshwater crocodiles living in the three lakes and birdwatchers will be excited at all the bird species.
And the magnificent andbeyond lodge is your chic base from which to explore this marvellous location. Mozambique is fast becoming the best travel destination in Africa and if you book your island package deal today, we can organise a great discount tailor made for you.
Rustic Chic Setting for Excellent Ocean and Island Activities at &Beyond Bengeurra
Come to unwind and pamper body and soul on a picture postcard island where it is always summer. Try a scuba diving session in the huge lodge swimming pool then set off by boat to a reef nearby to see the endangered turtles, dugongs and maybe a pod of dolphins playing in the clear swells.
We love the modern, relaxed vision of rustic chic that is andBeyond – a venue whose decor, food, staff and service are reminiscent of an era when life was less stressful, and the environment mattered to people. Every cent you spend commits you to the principles of sustainable tourism because you contribute to the conservation of the ocean and island species and because you assist the local children and fishermen to go on surviving. Take a sunset dhow cruise and see how the people fish and live in Mozambique, learning valuable life lessons from such simplicity.
Rated in travel circles as the classic luxury island retreat, AndBeyond Benguerra Island fulfils a need in all the guests who find it. The swaying palm forest, the soft white sands and an ocean that is reminiscent of a huge aqua marine lake ensure mindful relaxation at its very best. Let your body move when you try out some kite surfing, stand up paddle boarding and sea kayaking. Stop in all the island coves to walk and explore, picking up shells and birdwatching.
The five-star lodge has been revamped to attract international tourists who need a breather from hectic lifestyles. Spend time in the beach bar, a cleverly transformed fishing dhow beached in the foreground of the main living area, perfect for that sundowner drink every day. Walk for miles then sit on the sands for a starlit dinner for two. So much romance, so much space, so much time.
