The island of Bazaruto is incredibly beautiful. The sand dunes where you can walk for hours, the beaches also very beautiful for long walks, the water is warm and clear. And there are many excursions possible, e.g. Paradise Island (Santa Carolina Island), one of the best beaches ever seen for swimming and snorkeling. Thanks to the Dive Center Team, especially to Diogo and Eddy for their excellent service for our snorkeling and scuba diving sessions. They are professional, friendly and helpful to make sure that we could experience the amazing snorkeling and scuba diving experiences. The hotel is located on a beautiful spot, along a nice beach. It is very much spread out so you have enough privacy. Unfortunately the hotel does not meet the requirements for a luxury traveler. First the hotel is old and dated, the rooms got tired and need some maintenance. E.g. air conditioner was broken, door did not close properly etc. However the very disappointing part was the hotel service. although the people from Mozambique are friendly, in a five star hotel you expect some service, especially when it is part of Anantara. There were so many times I asked for simple things (cloth hangers, water, towels, shower gel, because they forgot to replace them regularly- but I had to insist to get these simple things and only got them after several reminders. Same with food service, also here lack of attention. There are a few nice staff members (e.g. Marcos and Massada to name a few) who really do their best, but the majority is unfortunately not trained enough. And last not least, I would say even more important, there is a lack of management. They never come and greet guests and ask the guests if everything is ok, they never watch if all goes well. This is the main issue here. Food is good, but not great. I would like to highlight in particular the fish they prepared especially for us was excellent - thank you Sergio for making this possible. Also the lobster ravioli and the tandoori prawns were very good. Desserts were less good. In conclusion: if you don’t mind a mediocre hotel in a great location at a high price (1200 USD per night is not cheap) you might like it. For luxury travelers I highly recommend to go for other options. What a pity, a fantastic environment with so much potential, but hopefully they will improve one day. Once again, the island is stunning, I highly recommend to visit.

An unforgettable stay in paradise 🌴🌅 We spent seven magical days at Anantara Bazaruto Island Resort for our honeymoon, and we couldn’t be more grateful for this exceptional experience. This place is a true haven of nature, a peaceful sanctuary where you feel privileged every moment. Imagine yourself with your feet in the water, on an almost deserted beach, surrounded by pure tranquility and the wild beauty of the island... After an intense week on safari in South Africa, this was exactly what we needed to relax, recharge, and savor a serene escape. Discovering Mozambique in this way was absolutely wonderful. The staff deserves special mention for their kindness, attentiveness, and warm smiles, making us feel pampered and truly valued. Admittedly, it may not be “over-the-top luxury,” but the real luxury here is enjoying a secluded island, far from crowds and mass tourism, where you can walk along the beach with nothing but the sound of the ocean. Thank you so much to the entire team at Anantara Bazaruto for their care and for making our stay so unique. We will return with pleasure, cherishing the memories of this paradise.

This is not a 5 star resort. The accommodations and resort are very outdated - the room, even though beachfront, is so dark and gets no natural light. A musty smell from the moment we walked in that lingered throughout our stay. Our safe was broken — which the staff was aware of upon arrival — they never came back to fix it until we called the next day to check in on it. The sliding door to the bathroom was broken barely hanging on - the repairman told us it was “too big of a job” to repair. The furniture was very chipped in our room and just generally poor accommodations for a “5 star” resort. The food was subpar… mediocre at best. The breakfast food was always extremely picked over, they wouldn’t bring any more fresh fruit out and the hot food was always cold to room temperature. It’s sad when the best food on an island resort is the pizza. The lunch and dinner menu are the same with the exception of one smaller lunch side menu at the beach front restaurant. Also, not sure how an all inclusive charges extra for a simple drink like a margarita. The staff needs training, it seemed like it was everyone’s first day on the job. They were rather disinterested and seemingly unhappy. Ordering a drink or food felt like a burden. We were only once greeted or ushered to a table for any of our meals. Not warm or friendly with the exception of one lovely woman during dinner service. During the first part of our honeymoon, we stayed at the Belmond Mount Nelson, Leeu Estates and Dulini Lodge in Sabi Sands - those are truly 5 star accommodations. Our stay here was extremely disappointing, so much so that we opted to leave a day early. The accommodations, staff and food fell short in every aspect - a lackluster ending to an incredible honeymoon. This resort is not cheap, so it’s very disappointing when the price does not come close to matching the level of service you are expecting for a 5 star resort - let alone an Anantara property. We would advise against booking here as there seems to be much nicer resorts on Benguerra Island.

La camera era molto grande con divano e TV , bagno bello con vasca e doccia niente da dire.In terrazza c'era una vasca Jacuzzi con orari comandati dalla direzione , peccato sia stato difficile utilizzarla per gli orari prestabiliti e l'acqua sempre fredda.. Per il resto struttura un po' datata, ma piacevole,l'inconveniente piu' grande e' dato dalle maree, il mare si ritira tantissimo e molte mattine ci siamo trovati con l'acqua lontanissima. Mi sembra che questo dovrebbe essere segnalato dalla struttura. Staff molto gentile. Gli orari dell'elicottero per andare e tornare dall'aereoporto dovrebbero essere piu' personalizzati, visto i costi

Our worries began as soon as we arrived at the airport: a wait of over an hour, a chaotic arrival without any information. Uncomfortable transfer by boat, again with no information and rude staff. Once there, the rooms were 30 years old, hardly anyone spoke English fluently, and the food was not good or even dangerous (the chicken was raw in the middle!!). Activities are overpriced, nothing is included, the gym is dangerous because the equipment is outdated. The store and kids' room are empty, power outages are commonplace, and wifi is very poor. There's no manager, everyone does what they want. They try to trick you by invoicing you many things you didn't do upon check-out, be careful. Go elsewhere, there's a much better place right next door...

На вертолете мы летели на остров и уже было понятно, что это дивное место , где океан целует дюны и вы забудете обо всем на свете и окунётесь в атмосферу блаженства! Идеальное место для уединения в комфортных условиях с великолепным сервисом, отличной кухней, а главное с людьми , которые делают все возможное и невозможное , чтобы отдых был единственный и неповторимый! Карлосу огромное спасибо, Джоане , всей команде, мы вернёмся в следующем году обязательно ❤️

My wife and I recently stayed at Anantara Bazaruto for a stop on our honeymoon adventure and were extremely pleased with the accommodations and top notch service we received. Narcisio, Raul and Vicente are the best. Went above and beyond. The beachside villas with plunge pool are perfect, secluded and peaceful. The dune boarding sunset experience was amazing. They know how to make it extra special and romantic. The heli transfer to airport is a plus. 5 star all around. We’ll be back.

A very special island experience with friendly helpful staff and top notch food at every meal. Even unfortunate weather for some of the time did not inhibit a fantastic time and makes this a repeatable experience every step of the way. In particular the staff really do everything they can to ease your stay and are a core asset for the hotel!
