Azura Information

Imagine an unspoilt island within a National Park, deserted beaches of pure white sand, sparkling turquoise seas, swaying palms, sunny days and star studded nights, and you have Azura Mozambique for that ultimate African safari .

Azura is the country’s first luxury eco-boutique retreat. Built entirely by hand in partnership with the local community, it has just 15 villas, each with their own infinity pool and designed for your pampering and privacy.

With wonderful Mozambican cuisine and service, a vast range of activities and experiences, and unique African spa treatments in the comfort of your own villa, you have the perfect island getaway.

A visit to Azura is all about you

Accommodation

Our villas blend modern chic with all that is traditional in Mozambique. The creature comforts you would expect from a luxury boutique resort are there, set off by beautifully carved beams and traditional artwork beneath a local thatched jekka roof.

Each is just footsteps from the beach, yet designed with seclusion in mind. Nestled amidst the indigenous trees and bush, we have painstakingly created your own private sanctuary. A haven of rest and relaxation, where you can feel at one with the environment. A fusion of indoor and outdoor space where time becomes your own.

Wander down to the pristine white beach and welcoming azure sea beyond. Or lounge around on plump cushions and have your butler serve you tea. Tan in private beneath the swaying palms, and cool off in your sparkling plunge pool. Dine on your deck, or sip a cocktail in your beachside Sala as the sun goes down. Lie in your bath and gaze at the view, or shower beneath the stars. Do whatever you want to do. Our villas are a welcoming place to stay. You may not want to leave them at all.

Spa

Offering spa treatments like no other. Our signature treatments are based on local ingredients and traditions. Be rubbed down with ground coconut shells and natural spices, covered head to toe with tamarind and aloe, and gently massaged with warm marula oil.

Nothing is hurried. Relax, lie back and be pampered in your villa. Take in the aromas and sounds that surround you. And savour the experience.

The treatment list includes:

- Rubs
- Wraps
- Massages

Activities
