Spent a weekend there as a guest of friends who used this as a venue to host friends for a farewell party to celebrate their immigration to the USA from South Africa. The lodge was boutique size (about 20 bungalows) , comfortable, clean and well positioned on the beach. They booked out the entire lodge. The design is typical open... More

We Loved this place! The rooms are stunning with views to die for. Staff and management are friendly and always willing to help. My absolute best was sitting by the pool over looking the ocean with a bottle of wine and their fabulous pizzas. Thanks to Scott and his team for a great time!

I been in and out of this lodge since 2000. Always been a great place, great atmosphere. We attended a wedding on Santa Carolina Island and all stayed at Beach Lodge. I haven't been there for almost 5 years..... what a surprise. The lodge has had a make-over of note, pleasantly so. Still the old charm with a lot more... More

We've just spent a wonderful 10 days at VBL - great accommodation, friendly staff, good food and magic diving. The dive shop is well organised and the gear is in generally in excellent condition - we will definitely be back.

We were there for 2 nights before moving to the islands. It is a charming and relaxed place mostly suited I feel- for short-stayovers as there are more upmarket resorts on the islands with all inclusive packages around Vilanculos and Bazarato and Benguerra Islands. The chalets are basic but extremely comfortable and clean and some do have views of the... More

Very nice, spacious rooms, beautiful location, great food. Manager is doing everything he can to make your stay unforgettable. Diving was not so good, they need a new divemaster. Other then that, the place to go to in Vilanculos!

Recently under new management, we were completely blown away by the setting, the friendliness of the staff, the amazing food, the dive trip, and the comfort of this lodge. They all went out of their way to ensure our comfort and absolute relaxation. Walking up the beach, it is clearly the most authentic and beautiful of the lodges surrounding it.... More
