Villas do Indico is a peaceful beachside haven 7-8kms north of Vilanculo. Luana and the staff were excellent - friendly, attentive & knowledgeable about the area. The rooms were perfect. Well appointed, with comfortable beds, black out curtains, the largest mozzie net we have ever seen! Sitting on the balcony watching the sea at the edge of the property was perfect. The only slight downside was no warning on Expedia that a 4x4 was essential to access the property. The sand road from the town was challenging & we were thankful we have a high clearance vehicle. This has not put us off visiting again & we will be back!!

Paradise Understood!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. Everything was done perfectly. Ana and Luis made sure that the overall guest experience was excellent. Our other host, John, made sure that all of our needs were met. The property is away from the main city which made it all the more peaceful. When we wanted to go into town John would arrange to get us to the main connection point and would arrange for a Tuk Tuk. The room was perfectly set up with a mosquito net. The value for money was excellent. We highly recommend this place!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The staff were excellent. We received a room upgrade which was amazing. We loved the food in the restaurant, especially the grilled prawns!. We were surprised on our last night there with a special romantic dinner. The views are amazing from the property. Highly recommend!

Is a really wonderful place. Recommend Xavier highly. Bit disappointed that the lodge boats were not operating so we could not easily organize a trip to St Carolina island. That said the trip we did to Bazaruto was spectacular

Pretty hotel in tranquil setting
We had a lovely 5 -night stay here. It is on a quiet beach in a picturesque location, though getting to it is a bit of a bumpy ride on a sandy road. However, this did not stop us from doing a number of good activities from the hotel - canoeing, diving, horse riding etc. A pleasantly memorable holiday.

A very relaxing holiday.
Despite our family all being sick during our stay, we enjoyed our time at Villas do Indico very much. George the manager and the waiters Benny, Xavier and John were all super helpful and very patient given our sickness. The rooms were comfortable, the setting beautiful and we will be going back sometime, when hopefully we will be well.

Great Lodge on the Beach in Vilanculos
Jorge immediately called and emailed me to confirm after I booked my reservations. He arranged a ride from the airport. The grounds are beautifully kept. Large pool overlooking the beach. All the staff were very friendly and majority English speaking. Jorge arranged rides, made recommendations for activities, and ensured my stay was comfortable. This lodge is a bit more remote from the town center but I preferred it because it was like a little piece of heaven to yourself. Breakfast was included which was always great - not just bagels or cereal. Dinners were delicious. Jorge also arranged for a boat trip and snorkeling to visit the nearby islands. Highly recommend.

Simple eco-hotel right on the beach
This isn't a sophisticated place but it's charming, has everything you need and is kind to the environment. The chef is amazing and cooks up some truly delicious meals. The location is also off the beaten path so it's very peaceful and serene. The hotel is right on the beach and there are no hills to climb up or down.
