Anantara Bazaruto Island Resort & Spa on Bazaruto, the largest island in the group, demonstrates that you can have all the amenities of a high quality resort set in the beautiful surroundings of the Bazaruto archipelago.   

Accommodation

There are 29 beach chalet rooms, extremely well-appointed, which have large, well-stocked minibars, private verandahs, mosquito screens on the French windows, air conditioning, enormous TVs and telephones. The marble bathrooms have sunken baths looking out at the sea, indoor and outdoor rainforest showers and a range of bath products. Below your verandah is your own well-manicured private garden space with hammock and a tsala on the beach.
 
Anantara Bazaruto Island Resort & Spa makes a point of catering for children, and has a well-equipped children’s centre. A family could opt for two beachfront rooms – some are interleading, others have shared verandahs - or take one of the 12 bay view suites. These are higher up, overlooking the bay, but with no direct access to the beach. Each has two bedrooms and bathrooms, a private living area and a large deck with small private pool. The honeymoon, executive and presidential suites offer even more extensive accommodation. However, meals cannot be taken in the suites.
