The resort consists of nine seafront villas built with natural coral stone and makuti thatch. All are open-plan and spacious. The decor is stylish, and the use of wood, cotton, rope, pebbles, and rattan add to the “castaway” feel. Guests can choose between three categories of villa: four Sunrise villas, four Sunset villas offering premium locations and outdoor showers, or the exclusive cliff-top premium villa. Each villa features oversized beds and spacious bathrooms with baobab-tiled showers that look onto the sea. It is even possible to book the island in its entirety.
The hotel is located on Quilalea Private Island in Quirimbas Archipelago. Quilalea Island is wholly uninhabited except for guests of the resort and the staff that attends to them. Mozambique’s Quirimbas Archipelago is made up of thirty-two tropical coral islands stretching sixty miles along the Indian Ocean coast, from Pemba to the Rovuma River. These tropical Mozambique islands are blessed with some of the richest coral reefs in the world that provide shelter to an incredible diversity of sea life. The archipelago has become known as the “African Caribbean” because of its breathtaking marine line and excellent diving, snorkeling, and fishing. The natural beauty includes mangroves, coral reefs, and palms islands.
Taking advantage of its beach setting, the hotel affords magical sunset cruises on a traditional sailing vessel or dhow. Scuba diving and snorkeling at Quilalea is some of the best in the entire archipelago. The marine pavilion is a fully equipped PADI dive center. Diving in these waters offers up to 100 feet of visibility and abundant sightings of game fish, manta rays, eight species of shark, including whale sharks, huge schools of feeding barracuda, king fish, red snappers, green and hawksbill turtles, pods of humpback dolphins, and humpbacked whales in season. Cultural tours visit nearby Ibo Island where silversmiths still make jewelry the traditional way outside the ancient fort. More relaxing activities include kayaking through the mangroves on nearby Sencar Island, a nature walk, and bird-watching some of the 182 species of birds.
The main bar and pool area presents plenty of areas to relax in, including a chill zone with large cushions to unwind on. The refreshing pool has comfy day beds and shady umbrellas. The laid-back lounge off the bar area offers satellite TV and a laptop with internet access available. The open Jellyfish Dining Room serves up fresh seafood and excellent wines. While Azura African Spa provides a wide menu of pampering spa treatments.
