Pemba
Arriving at Pemba Beach Hotel and Spa is to enter a modern oasis in a largely undeveloped land. Outside the temperature may hover between 30 and 40 degrees, but inside your air-conditioned room you can relax in your private habitat and dream of adventures past, and still to come. The Indian Ocean glitters beyond manicured lawns, dominating the vista from first floor rooms, whilst in the new Courtyard wing you are cosseted in a haven of rich furnishings, Persian rugs and marble clad bathrooms – a truly sumptuous rendition of African east coast living.
Quirimbas Archipelago
Ibo Island Lodge is the perfect place to explore the Quirimbas Archipelago National Park in Northern Mozambique. Ibo Island’s magic is overwhelming. Steeped in history, rich in culture and nominated as a potential World Heritage Site, the island dates back to the early 1600’s, making it one of the most ancient settlements in Mozambique. Since its role as one of the country’s central trading centers, Ibo has remained all but forgotten to the outside world for almost a century. Today you can wander around the mysterious town amongst forts and ancient romantic buildings with many fascinating stories just waiting to be retold.
