Reached by a short boat ride from Maputo, Machangulo Beach Lodge is the easiest beach lodge in Mozambique to get to from South Africa’s Kruger National Park which is just a couple of hour’s drive away.

Machangulo Beach Lodge enjoys a magnificent location amongst the shifting tides, endless white beaches, pristine and untouched dune forests, estuaries bursting with life and eternally wide-open ocean.

Hidden away amid the dunes and hiding amongst the forests, Machangulo Beach Lodge has a warm and inviting atmosphere.

Machangulo Beach Lodge has just 14 private luxury chalets. Each chalet has an en-suite bathroom, air-conditioning, mosquito nets and private deck.

Five chalets have breathtaking views of the ocean and Inhaca Island, and the others are grouped into Villas. All the chalets are connected by walkways and staircases to the main buildings and the beach.

Machangulo Beach Lodge’s striking main building includes a large inviting lounge with bar area and large dining area.

Hidden behind the main building is the Boma area where evenings are spent beside the fire while enjoying the tranquil Mozambican nights.

Situated near the beach is the Beach Bar where the vibrant atmosphere is kept alive from dawn to way past dusk!

A pool and deck are situated by the Beach Bar for you to cool down before an afternoon siesta.

What’s so Special?

Untamed and untouched, the Southern Mozambican coastline plays host to a unique battle between the open Indian Ocean and the estuaries of Maputo Bay.

The ever-present conflict between tides energizes the atmosphere and adds to the magic of this unspoiled and mysterious place.

Game fishing is a big thing here and the lodge runs outstanding fishing trips.

Bear in Mind

A Self-drive from South Africa is easy and Machangulo remains the easiest lodge to get to in Mozambique.

Safe Parking is available at the Maputo Marina at an additional cost payable directly at the Marina.

Machangulo Beach Lodge features 4 exclusive Villas

Beach Villas

There are Two Beach Villas with 4 detached rooms each, right on the beach.
