Travessia Beach Lodge

Set on the endless white sand beaches between Vilanculos and Inhambane, Travessia Beach Lodge is an intimate and authentic Mozambican beach lodge. 

Founded in collaboration with landowners in the local village and 100% solar-powered, Travessia Beach Lodge offers a luxury family holiday with a light environmental footprint. 

Nestled amongst a grove of coconut palms for which this coastline is famed, the lodge has just five thatched-canvas casitas and one family suite connected via raised wooden walkways. The rooms epitomise a barefoot luxury, furnished with locally-produced furniture and enjoying sweeping sea views from your private deck and hammock. The main lodge features an incredible wooden decked pool with 360 degree views of the Inhambane coastline, while the beach bar serves expertly-made G&Ts and cocktails during sundowners. 

This area is renowned for its whale shark and manta ray populations and therefore a snorkelling or scuba trip is essential. Another way to explore the nearby bays is by kayak, while younger guests will love catching waves on the resort’s range of boogie boards. For a taste of Mozambican culture, join the resort staff on a market visit to Morrumbene, Massinga or Maxixe and take a walk to a local village, learning about the local customs and trying the local Sura wine. The lodge even offers massages on your private deck, allowing guests to enjoy the sea views whilst being pampered. 

The down-to-earth luxury of Travessia Beach Lodge makes it a great addition to any luxury family safari.
