About Mozawi Beach Lodge

Wake to whale songs and Indian Ocean waves beneath your private terrace.
Perched above pristine sands, this coastal haven champions both marine science and indulgence. Makuti roofs crown breezy spaces adorned with local craftwork and carved details. The resident marine biologist rather enthusiastically guides guests through vibrant reefs, while whale sharks and nesting turtles pop by for regular visits. Rather marvellously, you'll find yourself involved in hands-on reef restoration between sublime spa treatments.
From $330 per person/per night

Property details

The property

Forest pathways wind to an airy lounge where Swahili daybeds catch the afternoon breeze. The infinity pool stretches towards tomorrow, while evenings bring fresh-off-the-dhow seafood under the stars. A rather splendid marine library and dive centre round off the offerings.

The rooms

Six thatched villas showcase carved four-posters, private pools, and ocean-view terraces. Indoor-outdoor bathrooms boast copper tubs, while brass lanterns cast a warm glow over local textiles and smooth screed floors.

The rather ambitious coral nursery has revived three kilometres of house reef, for a more established dive you will take a 1 hour boat ride to 2 Mile Reef
