("Point of Gold") on the southernmost tip of Mozambique.
The quaint holiday village of Ponta Do Ouro boasts pristine beaches
and crystal-clear sea. For action, there is spectacular snorkelling
and scuba diving. Or laze away the days with endless walks in the
lush coastal vegetation with its splendid wealth of bird life.
Ponta Do Ouro is a holiday destination not to be missed... and
O Lar Do Ouro is the place to stay when you're here!
The slogan of O Lar Do Ouro’s Guest Lodge is "Um lar
fora de casa" — meaning "Home away from Home".
We offer you the quality of accommodation and service that will
bring you back again and again.
Mozambique is one of the more popular destinations in Africa.
So what are you waiting for!
O Lar Do Ouro is Portuguese for "Home of Gold", and a
golden welcome is exactly what you will receive when you arrive
at our guest lodge in Ponta Do Ouro, Mozambique.
O Lar Do Ouro Guest Lodge is situated away from the relative hustle
and bustle of the little village centre of Ponta Do Ouro. Come and
relax with us in the charming environment of lush vegetation around
our "Um lar fora de casa", your "Home away from Home".
The beach is only a few minutes' walk away through the quaint village,
or you can relax by our pool and listen to the soothing murmur of
the sea.
The lodge offers accommodation on a dinner, bed & breakfast
basis. The fully air-conditioned double or twin rooms offer rustic
luxury, with en-suite showers, and each with a verandah. All rooms
and beds are protected from mosquitoes with netting.
The bar area overlooks the pool for those lazy afternoons in the
sun where you contentedly lie back and catch up on your reading
or just sip cocktails!
The lodge is owner managed, and Teresa and Janice will pamper you
and cater to your every need from early morning tea/coffee to exotic
sundowners or late-night shooters in the bar. Our guest lodge is
here for your pleasure. After all, we have pledged to make it your
home from home!
