Rooms
The design of the boutique suites at Santorini Mozambique is inspired by the traditional whitewashed architecture of Greece. Each of the spacious suites is individually designed and dedicated to an island or region in the surroundings. The interior decor tells its own captivating story through carefully selected elements such as hand-carved doors from Bali, antiques from Indonesia and India, and Greek-inspired furniture. The suites come with all modern amenities, including a king-size bed with mosquito net, air conditioning, and a charming en-suite bathroom, as well as traditional Kikoi garments, beach towels, and a locally made beach bag for your use during your stay.
Culinary
The magic of Santorini cuisine enchants the taste buds with extravagant colors, flavors, and aromas. The local chefs await you with a selection of up to four different courses at each meal, featuring vegetables and herbs from the on-site garden and fresh fish and seafood. Guests particularly enjoy the homemade granola for breakfast, the hot chocolate fudge to finish a delightful dinner, the excellent homemade ice cream, and the sinful Irish coffee after the meal. For a casual lunch in the courtyard, chef Joao quickly transforms into “Giovanni” as he heats up the pizza oven and creates crispy thin pizzas. The villa’s own wine cellar offers a selection of premium wines, champagnes, and spirits.
Activities
Known as the “Pearl of the Indian Ocean,” the Bazaruto Archipelago is a sought-after travel destination in Mozambique. The area is famous for its dreamy white sandy beaches, sparkling turquoise waters, and some of the best dive spots in the world. As one of the largest marine reserves in the Indian Ocean, you can observe over 2000 different species of fish in the archipelago, as well as dolphins, whales, turtles, sharks, and the very rare Indo-Pacific manatee. The resort offers a variety of activities such as kayaking, stand-up paddling, snorkeling, fishing, and fitness equipment, while Vilanculos invites you to colorful markets and local shops to explore.
Location
Santorini Mozambique is located in the small town of Vilanculos in Mozambique, the starting point for all expeditions and stays in the Bazaruto Archipelago. The archipelago consists of a chain of five small islands that run parallel to the coast and lie within a protected national marine reserve. Therefore, the Santorini resort provides the optimal starting point for excursions to the archipelago and island hopping. Vilanculos International Airport is regularly serviced from South Africa and other African countries.
