There are two sides to every distinctive woman - the passionate lover and the perfect lady. When Senhor Alves fell under the spell of the beautiful Dona Ana, he was entranced both by the mysterious woman and the gracious hostess. In her likeness he created the Hotel Dona Ana as a celebration of her indomitable spirit and seductive persona. Like her namesake, the Hotel Dona Ana is elegant and gracious. And like her, she is also passionate and full of surprises. Beneath that classic Art Deco exterior lies a fiery Latin temptress.

She offers the glamour, sophistication and style of a grande dame with a healthy dash of the spice of life, the rhythm of Africa and the laid back charm of Portugal. On the white sands of Vilankulo over sixty years ago, Senhor Alves fell in love with Dona Ana. Now, you will too, as she takes you on a journey that will exceed your expectations.

Diving - The Bazaruto Marine National Park is one of the largest of its kind in the world and home to a wide range of marine species. Scuba divers can swim with dolphins, the mighty humpback whale, manta rays, reef sharks and hosts of exquisitely coloured reef fish. The area also boasts one of the world's largest breeding herds of dugongs, as well as bales of leatherback, loggerhead and green turtles that often come ashore to lay their eggs on the sandy beaches. Our on-site PADI dive team co-ordinates diving courses catering all the way from beginners to advanced reef divers.

Fishing - The Bazaruto Archipelago is a paradise for fishermen harbouring the world's most exciting game fish including Kingfish, Queenfish, Barracuda, Mackerel and Yellowfin Tuna. Pit yourself against the Giant Black Marlin, Sailfish or Wahoo or enjoy a peaceful afternoon fly-fishing in one of our inland lakes.

Snorklling - The clear blue waters of the Archipelago's reefs offer snorkelers a startling diversity of exotic marine life. The Dona Ana Dive Centre can provide all the equipment you need to explore the world beneath the sea with one of our experienced guides.

Boat Trips - Sundowner cruises and exploratory boat trips through the islands of the Archipelago offer you the chance to meet dolphins, whales and dugongs while enjoying a cocktail or picnic.
