Azura is Mozambiques first luxury 'eco' boutique retreat. Azura Lodge was built entirely by hand by the local community and operated in partnership with them, Azura has just 15 villas, each with their own infinity pool and designed for both pampering and barefoot escapism. With wonderful Mozambican cuisine and friendly service, a vast range of activities and experiences including scuba diving, deep sea fishing, stargazing and a unique Azura African Spa, Azura offers you the perfect undiscovered island getaway. The handbuilt villas at Azura 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 locally sourced wooden beams and traditional artwork beneath a thatched jekka roof. The dedication to conservation and the community lies at the heart of everything Azura does. Azura is one of only a handful of resorts where the community are major contributors and stakeholders. Wander down to the pristine white beach and welcoming azure sea beyond. Lounge around on plump cushions on your daybed, or tan in private and cool off in your sparkling plunge pool. Dine on your deck, or sip champagne 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. The Azura villas are a welcoming place to stay. You may not want to leave them at all. You’ll have a dedicated Mozambican host to look after you during your stay at Azura. They’ll take care of all your needs, including serving your meals, arranging activities and joining you on excursions . They are part of Azura’s commitment to the community and upliftment of the country’s people. Many of them have very little in the way of formal education, but they have a genuine warmth and friendliness, and will delight in looking after you.
