Accommodation Photos

Stay at Manchangulo Beach Lodge

Hidden amid extraordinary dunes and natural forests, Machangulo Beach Lodge has a warm and inviting atmosphere, a sanctuary for guests from the epic nature outside.

All rooms have ocean views, en suite bathrooms and private verandas. The premium ocean view rooms are the pride and joy of Machangulo Beach Lodge. Perched upon a ridge overlooking the amazing scenery, every room is luxuriously furnished with modern amenities and the Lodge’s trademark attention to detail.

The friendly staff members here take great pride in sharing their knowledge of the local fauna and flora just outside your door. Outdoor activities offer plenty of opportunities to get up-close with wildlife including great white pelicans, flamingos and African fish eagles. Dolphins and humpback whales (June to December) can often be spotted offshore and there’s a whole underwater world to discover. The thatched restaurant – the Dining Room – takes inspiration from the lodge’s setting and focuses on simple fresh seafood and local flavours.

The Haughtons

We really loved our time at Azura Benguerra - the beach here was perfect. The tide came right up to the edge of our beach cabana each evening at sundowner time. Both the staff and food were great and we were really well looked after. There was just the right amount of things to do, including fly fishing from the beach or from SUP and snorkelling. Overall it was just an incredible experience and we absolutely loved it – a real once in a lifetime trip.
