Spacious Beach Cabins In Macomia, Mozambique

Description

These gorgeous cabins, known as bandas in the region, were hand-built by a local workforce and designed by award-winning architects, Cullum and Nightingale. Each banda is mere footsteps from the beach so complete relaxation is always within your grasp. There are large double doors and windows that together create a natural fusion of the indoor and outdoor spaces.

The roof is incredibly high and large, reaching upwards and outwards. The roof extends to cover the stylish, Swahili-inspired veranda, hammock and traditional beach sun loungers that are provided for your enjoyment. Because of the original design of the bandas, gentle sea breezes always pass through them, ensuring you stay cool day and night. Inside there is a discrete shuttered window (reminiscent of a castle's arrow slit or lancet) that sits above a writing desk, where your morning tea, coffee and pastries will be left. The sleeping area is on a raised platform with a lavish king-sized bed under an extravagant, hand-crafted mosquito net. Behind the bedroom is a large open-air bathroom with twin sinks and mirrors and a huge shower.

If you have a larger group or just want some extra space, you can opt for the Banda Suites, which consist of two ajoining Adobe Bandas; one a bedroom and the other a lounge. The buildings are linked by a covered pathway forming a courtyard between them. It is quite similar to the Adobe banda; the only difference really is that is has more than double the space. A spacious lounge with a mezzanine "snug" is across a covered walkway from a beautiful bedroom with views over the beach. Between the two buildings lies a courtyard behind which is a large bathroom with a "loo with a view." These Suites are so spacious - the lounge can be converted to accommodate up to six children.

The cuisine that you will indulge in during your stay creatively blends the very best of Mozambican and Swahili flavors with an international twist. All fish is purchased from local fishermen, farmers and entrepreneurs daily, thereby ensuring you get some of the freshest food you'll ever taste. Because the lodge is small, they are able to cater to your dietary needs so if you have allergies or are vegetarian, vegan, etc. please let the staff know ahead of time and they will create a menu that works for you.
