Azura Benguerra
Azura Benguerra Island is an eco-friendly award winning boutique hotel in the uniquely beautiful country of Mozambique.
Mozambique is still rather undiscovered and renowned for its relaxed, tropical atmosphere and exceptionally friendly people. Its biggest draw cards are without a doubt, its expansive beaches, secluded islands and spectacular marine life. The setting for this experience is hard to beat.
With just 20 luxury beachfront villas hand-built by the local community and no shops on the island, a stay at Azura Benguerra Island allows you to truly escape. Each villa offers all the creature comforts you could wish for: private pools, Mozambican butler-hosts to look after your every need, fresh seafood straight from the ocean and a relaxing African spa. Azura Retreats’ vision was to provide the ultimate in private luxury hideaways, in stunning undiscovered destinations, which they have achieved with Azura Benguerra Island.
Founded by Christopher and Stella Bettany in 2007, Azura Retreats is the product of a love affair with the country of Mozambique and its people, combined with the desire to create a destination that would appeal to honeymooners and families alike. Azura Benguerra Island was born out of the island’s authentic natural beauty, and the connection to the local people and cultures.
