Azura Benguerra

“I arrived in style via helicopter and I have to say it was a highlight, the views over the islands is absolutely break-taking. The staff are incredibly welcoming and friendly, the food was absolutely delicious, and the accommodation was luxurious and classy. Topped with one of the most stunning beach locations Azura Benguerra has it all.”

Mike Varndell, May 2019

Heli Flight

There is no better way to see the archipelago than being up in the skies. Arriving in a helicopter with some of the most incredible views of the channel is something you have to experience and will not be disappointed. If you keep your eyes peeled, you may even spot a few of the glorious sea creatures from above. Get the camera ready because you haven’t seen turquoise waters quite like this.

Setting

This has to be one of the best spots on the island. Not far is some of the best snorkelling and diving you will experience, and the fishing is also an angler’s dream, with boats heading out to sea daily. If you want to exert yourself then a short distance away are the dunes and inland lakes, take a walk up the dunes where you can witness spectacular views of the white sandy beaches and the gorgeous sea beyond. The location is prime, and you will be blown away at every angle.

Presidential Villa

Each of the villas are beautifully decorated offering next level comfort to guests each with outdoor space, private pools and each only a few steps from the beach. However, the presidential villa at the lodge is on another level and, has been described as one of the best villas anywhere on the Indian ocean. Set in a secluded and private location the villa comes with it’s very own butler and private chef. It is pure luxury, uniquely decorated with indoor and outdoor bathrooms, a dining area, wine bar and a large infinity pool out the front. You can even head up to your very own treehouse and catch the incredible views in private. It is truly dreamy.
