Anantara Bazaruto Island Resort

This resort is amazing. We went for our honeymoon after spending a few days in Cape Town. The service was thorough and impeccable - all waiters were attentive to our every need, housekeeping left the room pristine, and the food was delicious. We went scuba diving and the guides were great. I had issues with my ear after the dive and the resort gave me some ear drop medication. They truly thought of everything. Oh also, it is breathtakingly beautiful.

I highly recommend Anantara Bazaruto Island. We had an amazing stay. Everything was perfect from the moment we arrived till checkout. There are plenty of activities to do: snorkeling, diving, safari, sand boarding on the dunes, cooking class, horseback riding on the beach and much more! You will not get bored at all. The food was delicious and fresh.

Very friendly staff and the place is a hidden gem, perfect place to visit with family. We went in winter and it felt like summer

One of the best hotels I have stayed in. Amazing staff, service and food. The villas are beautiful. Paradise in a nut shell. Very quite resort where you can relax and recharge.

We spent a truly magical few days at Anantara Bazaruto, and it honestly exceeded all of our expectations. From the moment we arrived until the very end, every detail was handled with care, and we felt pampered in a dreamlike setting. We were lucky to have Claudio as our concierge, and we couldn’t have asked for a better host. His attention, dedication, and kindness were essential in organizing every experience to perfectly match our preferences. He made us feel not just welcome, but genuinely cared for. Our villa was stunning, luxurious, comfortable, beautifully decorated, and seamlessly blended with the natural surroundings. Having our own pool, ocean views, and total privacy made our stay truly exceptional. The activities offered by the resort were simply outstanding. We enjoyed snorkeling in crystal-clear waters, sunset boat rides, romantic horseback rides on the beach, and thrilling water sports. Every activity was perfectly coordinated, with professional staff and top-notch equipment. The cuisine deserves a special mention. Each meal was a delicious surprise, full of flavor, freshness, and creativity. The resort manager, Christian, was always present, kind, and incredibly attentive. His leadership and commitment to excellence were evident in every aspect of our stay. At the spa, we received world-class treatment. Helena was absolutely fantastic, her expertise and gentle care gave us one of the best spa experiences we’ve ever had. It was the perfect way to relax and recharge. And of course, we want to highlight the incredible staff at the restaurant and across the resort. Each person contributed to our stay with a smile, special attention, or thoughtful gesture. A heartfelt thank you to Catimbe, Julie, Fidelis, Alberto, Justin, Sergio, Mario, Ronaldo, and many others whose names we may not remember, but whose kindness made a lasting impression. Anantara Bazaruto is more than just a resort, it’s a place that touches your soul. We leave with unforgettable memories and the certainty that we’ll return to this paradise. Thank you for making our experience so extraordinary!

From our initial check-in to every morning and evening at meal times, the team could not do more for you. Their beautiful, warm smiles and excellent hospitality made you feel like you were staying with a relative / family member. The food was out of this world with the chefs surprising us everyday with their talent - were we blown away by the Mozambique seafood or what. Unbelievable - Those prawns - actually the size of Lobsters were ‘next level’ and sumptuously prepared. I was equally surprised on my birthday with a cake and warm Portuguese singing by the fabulous team which was the icing on the cake for me so thank you , thank you and thank you. We will definitely return. I would add they do need to promote the Spa a bit more as it is somewhat feels like an afterthought when asked about and this is where they could make their money.
