Bahia Mar

The main lodge areas is situated on a plateau overlooking the bay. Consisting of a thatched reception and communal lounge area leading to and fine la carte restaurant with rich outdoor wooden decking. Sun umbrellas are surrounded by manicured lawns, swaying palms and inviting views. The large and alluring infinity pool with swim up bar will keep you occupied for hours or you can descend down a series of wooden steps to the beach below.

Twelve rooms are clustered into four, free-standing units built sloping down towards the oceanside along a leafy ridge, one of which is a full family unit. All rooms are modern and simply styled, with exposed brick work and light, airy decor touches that do not overpower the senses. Upper floors have expansive outdoor areas with seas views and loungers, while lower levels have private splash pools and full kitchenettes. The Presidential suite has all the bells and whistles with more privacy.

The club is able to organise a range of tours on either land or sea. Kite surfing, dhow cruises, paddle boarding and diving and snorkeling get you into the water, while horse riding, tuk tuk tours and sunset island trips keep you busy on land. The on-site spa ensures a bit of pampering, as well as a gym with different classes. The pilates sessions and aerial fitness classes are a must! You can charter the Mayara, a four sleep power boat, for some ocean exploration.
