AsDunas Lodge

Location and Setting: The accommodation offers an idyllic, secluded setting overlooking the Indian Ocean and the Bazaruto Archipelago, with breathtaking views and proximity to a pristine beach.

We visited AsDunas in March for a special 50th celebration and had a truly wonderful time. The staff are so welcoming, Chelsea, Jaime, Joao, Boa and all the team worked so hard everyday to show us a good time. The resort is beautiful and maintained consistently by a huge staff, for whom nothing is too much trouble. The owners/management work closely with the local community to support job opportunities and training young people. The suites are super comfortable and the mesh sided tent gave a real close to nature experience - walking up to the waves was genuinely magical. There was a filtered water dispenser in the room which we thought a great idea, much better than the constant stream of plastic bottles we’ve experienced elsewhere. Everyday bought new food, prepared to the highest standard. Amazing breakfasts made to order, three course lunches and 6 course dinners. All high quality produce and the chef went to great lengths to accommodate my slightly nervous palate! Ive never experienced such consistently high quality food, displayed so beautifully. These dinners by moonlight everyday were a true highlight. Another option was the sunset on the dunes, the staff helpfully carry drinks and chairs up for you and it’s a spectacular view. Though I would note, the route is for the sure footed and not the faint hearted! We found it a little daunting to be honest and only went up once. Daily massages were available and Chelsea went to great lengths to ensure we could schedule them each day, even when we left the resort for excursions. A real treat to be massaged so frequently! All in all, a wonderful place and we would love to return one day. Can’t recommend AsDunas highly enough.

We spent the most wonderful 5 nights at this beautiful lodge. We were collected from the airport by the very competent manageress, Chelsea. From the moment we arrived, we felt we had arrived in paradise . All the staff are so friendly, helpful and made us feel so special. The owner, Fabio’s ( top chef) produced Michelin star meals daily, hence us being a few kilos heavier when we arrived back home The daily spa treatments were pure bliss. We left feeling we were saying goodby to friends. Thank you to Riaz, Chelsea and team for making our stay so memorable….. we will definitely be back soon. Kevin & Cheryl Campbell
