Luke's Place is located in Vilanculos and features a pool with a view and pool views. This beachfront property offers access to a patio, free private parking and free WiFi. The accommodation provides free shuttle service, full-day security and currency exchange for guests.

What is there not to like?! From the moment you walk through those gates, you’re at home away from home. Linda and Louis do an incredible job of not only running this beautiful property, but also making you feel like you belong. Situated right there at the beach, you’ve got long walks out at low tide, swimming in high tide, palm trees for shade and a pool. It’s paradise. And if that’s not enough, Linda can hook you up with the best operators around for day excursions to the offshore islands. The cabins themselves have all that you could want, with plenty of space and a very comfortable bed. I’ll be back again, and I’m bringing friends. A big shout out to Linda who went above and beyond to help me out, when my flights out went askew. She not only kept me in the loop better than the airline, but also had contingency plans ready if things didn’t work out. Incredible service.

Located in Vilanculos, 400 metres from Vilankulos Beach, Vilancool Beach Resort provides accommodation with air conditioning and access to a garden. This beachfront property offers access to a patio, free private parking and free WiFi. On clear days, guests can head outside to enjoy the holiday home's outdoor fireplace or simply kick back and relax.

This is a true paradise for the adventurous traveller who wants to experience the real Mozambique! We loved our spacious clean beach bungalow with lovely shady deck from which we could see the sea through the palm trees! It was 100m from the sand. All staff were incredibly kind and friendly. Fernando brought us coconuts and opened them. Dalton is an incredibly kind and hospitable host. He recommended local restaurants that we loved - no menu sometimes, just go with the flow! There is no restaurant at Villancool but we enjoyed walking up to Baobab for breakfast and then back to the tranquility of Villancool. Our sunset Dhow safari was an absolutely highlight - a really traditional timber boat with old school sailing. Dalton can organise activities including kite surfing. We loved our time here. If you want luxury surroundings, room service, fast wifi and all that, this is probably not the place for you but to appreciate a friendly community in very comfortable accommodation, I highly recommend it. If you are interested in contributing to projects to assist the community, talk to Dalton.

    Dalton was very attentive and helped us with all enquiries/problems we had - including WiFi, transport, an unforgettable tour, where to shop etc. The employees were in general very friendly, we felt very welcome. The lodges are quite new and are equipped with mosquito nets and a kitchen. The beach right in front of the hotel is also amazing!

    The room was very nice and the bar on the elevated terrace has a stunning view. The concept of having a local style lodge, while training and employing local youth is convincing, but difficult to implement.

    Sitting on the shady deck of the beach front cabin watching the sea was a great way to drink my morning coffee, what a beautiful sight! Rebeka is absolutely amazing, she is kind and caring. She is the one that makes Baobab shine! Food: Tiger prawns are to die for, super delicious and large. Overall a great place to stay.

    Very clean and safe and comfortable bungalow with hot water and comfie bed, nice pool. Nice staff who were always very helpful in terms of assisting with transport and lots of questions. Great to have airport pickup and drop off. Overall I really enjoyed my stay and it would have been a 10 had the promised seaview room actually had a proper seaview. Being one of my key search criteria, on arrival, it was a bit disappointing. Highly recommend as all staff are great, location is good and facilities are very nice.

    The lodge is beautifully located in front of the ocean, and the 2 miles reef is an easy ride. The staff is very nice, they do their best to offer their guests a positive experience. Breakfast can be improved while the restaurant serves very good food.
