One of the islands best delicacies is its shrimp, prepared for you by our chef Alfredo (Fredy). Our hotel restaurant emphasizes a modern approach to cooking, with the best, freshest local seafood prepared in a variety of ways.

If however you feel like venturing out into the picturesque town of Ilha, there are several dining options available. Anchora d’Oro serves the best pizza outside of Rome, or enjoy wonderful views of the city and a bowl of pasta at the rooftop restaurant run by Roberto, Casa Rosa. If you have a taste for local cuisine, the traditional Moçambiquan food at Sara's in front of the hospital is divine.
