Best accommodation in Vilanculos

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 17 Aug 2016
This is the best place to stay, with easy access to a clean and rockless part of the beach, pool, a bar right by the beach and beautiful private rooms. The staff was also really friendly so I loved staying here.

Definitely the biggest asset of the Beach Village (beside the pool shaped as the African continent) is the bar. The bar is overseing the Vilanculos beach and is one of the only one in the Vilanculos to offer such a feature. The bungalows are comfortable enough for the price and all have a moskito net. The place is well maintained and the staff is very helpful.

The difference with my previous trips there is that it is now easier to organise transportation and this helps to travel around the city. This if you are already bored to go and see the Bazaruto Islands where you can snorkel and enjoy delicious calamaris !

When we arrived in vilanculos we went to baobab. When entering we saw some familiar faces who recommended The Beach village. And we had 4 great nights there. There are new owners since 2015 who want to put there soul into the place. Basic but everything you need. Clean, and everybody was so friendly and helpfull. They have lodges,dormes, private room and small campsite. You can go party and eat at baobab next door and still have a quit peaceful nights rest.

After staying in Boabab for the first couple nights i moved down the beachh to beach village as it is a cheaper option but still really nice place and the bar is literally right on the beach, i reckon one of the best bars in vilanculos plus a swimming pool. but really the best part of the place is that its a real backpakers the managers and staff are really fun people who treat u like their friends and it doesnt feel like a commercial resort like boabab or any other place in vilanculos. i really enjoyed my stay here the people were great it it was the cheapest place i could find.

Room tip: If you got the budget get the room closest to the beach.
