Anantara Medjumbe Island Resort & Spa

Quirimbas Archipelago, Mozambique

Gold price level

Mango Opinion

This is a gorgeous private island resort off the northern coast of Mozambique. Individual chalets sit beach side and are equipped with all of the extras (TV, A/C, bath and mini-bars). We love the walk down the sand bar, the creative cocktails at the pool, the friendly staff and the incredible BBQ lobster feasts! This is a nice combination with a stay at the nearby Matemo Island. A fabulous honeymooners destination.

Access is not always easy with flight schedules, so having a few days to enjoy the area is recommended to make it worth the journey.

Located on the remote Medjumbe Island - a magical destination with private beaches and countless coves to be discovered - Medjumbe Island Resort is the ideal Mozambique island getaway for those who wish to experience exclusivity and privacy on a remote tropical island. White sandy beaches, turquoise waters and sunsets dipping down into the ocean make for an idyllic retreat for guests to escape the hustle and bustle of life. 

There are a total of 12 thatched chalets with private plunge pool and en-suite bathrooms fitted with indoor shower and separate bath as well as a private outdoor shower. All chalets are beautifully furnished and are equipped with air conditioning, outdoor hammock, ceiling fans, fully mosquito screened, hair dryer, mini bar, personal electronic safe, satellite TV and the convenience of tea/coffee making facilities. Chalets are set separately from the main building where you will dine on sublime local seafood fare, relax at the swimming pool and enjoy exotic cocktails at the bar.

Spend your days choosing between lazing on the beach or participating in the many optional activities offered at the resort. From world class scuba diving and snorkeling to exhilarating water sports, Medjumbes incredible location caters to every taste. The reefs harbor a remarkably diverse array of marine life that are fascinating to dive and snorkel though.
