Just 6 minutes by boat from the thriving capital of Maputo, Catembe Gallery Hotel offers lodging in Mozambique, excellent dining and conference/ banqueting facilities. It is the ideal place for a total relaxing experience, offering guests a note of sophistication and comfort in a unique rural African village atmosphere. This Mozambique hotel is the ideal place to spend a day on the beach, too.

Conference facilities at Catembe include 2 conference rooms that are perfectly suitable for all kinds of conferences and team building. The biggest conference room can go up to 120 participants and has 2 break away rooms for 15 delegates. This Mozambique hotel also caters for special buffets like seafood and barbecue and provides for extra entertainment offered in the evenings.

In Portuguese times, dining on prawns at Marisol was a must around Lourenço Marques. The Catembe Gallery Hotel is proud to continue this long-standing tradition: today, you can dine on the freshest seafood delicacies and Indian Ocean cuisine. For Sunday brunch, the hotel's chef will also tempt you with the best traditional Mozambican dishes.

Catembe Gallery Hotel makes it own fresh cheeses from Buffalo milk, from a local herd nearby the hotel. All our pastas are freshly made. Our kitchen team has local cooks under supervision of our international Italian chef.

Catembe Gallery Hotel has five luxury rooms that are individually decorated by leading Mozambican artists. All rooms face the Indian Ocean and have panoramic views of the Maputo skyline. As you enter your room, you will be amazed by the view from your private balcony, as well as the original African artwork displayed for your appreciation. All rooms have an en-suite bathroom with a Jacuzzi. For the traveling corporate two rooms have been equipped with a separate desk/work area.

For those who prefer a real home away from home, there are two penthouses that are ideal for larger groups, families or longer-term stays. They are fully equipped and serviced, so that you have the choice of self-catering or using the hotel facilities

The bar was designed and decorated by an inspired young African artist, who chose to design a surreal landscape. The end effect is a perfect antidote to the stress of city life and invitation to let your thoughts float away on an exotic journey along the shores of East Africa. Why not sample the famous 'Catembe' punch that originated here. And check out the regular live music performances!

We pack picnic baskets for your excursions or boating trips. And when you return, our cooks will be glad to prepare for you the fish you have caught, while you watch. Or, why not prepare it yourself at our outdoor braai while you enjoy a sundowner from the pool bar.

Most of our guests enjoy the opportunity to relax by the pool or stroll on the beach. However, Catembe is also an opportunity to discover a world of fascinating contrasts and natural beauty to the rhythm of the authentic village lifestyle. Attractions include hiking trails, birding trails and quad bike trails with local guides.

We will be happy to arrange boating trips for game fishing, diving or snorkeling or a picnic on a deserted beach on Inhaca and Portuguese islands. The marine life and corals surrounding these islands are among the most pristine in the world.

Catembe is the perfect base from which to explore the near-by Maputo Elephant Reserve that is famed for its bird life and elephants slated as a potential Natural World Heritage Site.

Catembe Gallery Hotel commits itself to help protect this amazing natural heritage and will tailor its excursions to meet the strictest environmental and ecological standards.
For those who travel further afield, Catembe Gallery Hotel is a gateway to the renown game and nature reserves of Swaziland and KwaZulu Natal (South Africa), including the future Maputaland transfrontier conservation area.

Trips to the Elephant Reserve
The Maputo Special Reserve is one of the most beautiful and yet poorly known conservation areas in Southern Africa . The large variety of habitats includes mangrove forest, tidal wetlands, large treeless grass plains and dense sand forest. This mosaic of biomes supports an impressive diversity of plants, bird species, elephants, hippos, crocodiles and antelopes etc. More than 200 elephants were recorded in 2002; on our trips we use local guides and rangers who have high sighting rates. We leave with a luxury game viewer vehicle from Catembe Gallery Hotel at 6.00 for a day of eco tourism and beach activities. The day trip includes breakfast, lunch on the beach, entrance fees, guide and petrol and is USD 85 pp.

Nesting of the Turtles
During season from November to January, the loggerhead and leatherback turtles return from the ocean to the beach in the Elephant Reserve to lay about 150 eggs. We leave around 16.30 – return midnight (stay at Catembe Gallery Hotel). As this is a night activity, previous booking and minimum number of people are required
