I have staid at Nordins for two nights.
The place is nice and quiet (we had no neighbhours....)
It is very near the "village centre" so you can walk to the main "restaurants" and "attractions".
It is a medium budget accomodation but has nothing less then the luxury ones (toilet in the room). Read more reviews

Turtle Cove Tofo Beach Mozambique

  Turtle Cove Mozambique

Turtle Cove Photo Gallery

Hidden away in Tofinhio a few km's north of Tofo is the laid back Turtle Cove, a favourite with surfers but also good "chilling" place for any traveler who make the effort to get there and a warm welcome awaits all in the impressive looking bar and social area and the food is excellent!
Accommodation is in dorms with shared ablution or reed and thatch huts sharing one en-suite bathroom between 2 huts, and there is plenty of space for camping. Surf boards are available for hire and you may be lucky enough to pick up some instruction, but if not try the Waterworks Cafe in Tofo for surfing lessons. Accommodation & facilities at Turtle Cove are rustic but there are hot water showers and cold beer in the fridge... enough said.

Be ready to rough it out, Bamboozi Lodge is situated about 400 metres from the beach. The lodge offers several accommodation options, from camping to little huts (Mozambique style). Read more reviews

Feedback comments
I stayed for 2 weeks in Tofo scuba diving. The Lodge consists of simple cabanas scattered amongst the bush behind the sand dunes, with a bar restaurant on top of the dunes overlooking the beach.
Accomodation is basic, with power only between 6pm and midnight. But I did enjoy walking home along the beach in the afternoon and having a cold beer looking out over the Indian Ocean. Good food in the evenings too, excellent seafood. I disliked the shared shower block
Note that mango beach is a 30min walk from Tofo village. Read more reviews

Feedback comments
We stayed at Fatimas Nest because we didn't want to walk any further with our backpacks.
This hostel is designed to be cheap and cheerful. Unfortunately it is not cheap and definitely not cheerful.
We stayed in a grass hut near the beach, we could hear the ocean and couldn't be closer to the beach. We were really impressed.
However, the reception were miserable, the huts were really close together and for some reason they turn the bass on maximum at around midnight (despite there being about three people in the bar).
After having moved, we could still hear the bass on the otherside of the bay.
