Situated in the Bazaruto Archipelago of islands, on the south eastern border of Southern Africa. (Mozambique borders South Africa, Zimbabwe, Malawi and Tanzania, and has 2000 kilometres of pristine coast line.)

Benguerra is approximately 11 kms by 5 kms, and the forest, savannah and wetland eco-systems sustain a diverse population of fauna and flora on the island, which was declared a National Park in 1971. There are 3 fresh water lakes which host numerous birds as well as crocodile.

The main lodge is flanked by secluded chalets, built on stilts, with woven reed walls, wooden floors and thatched roofs. The 13 chalets are 10-15 metres apart and all have views overlooking the beach and sea. They are all double rooms (5 double beds and the rest are twin bedded) with an en-suite bathroom with shower. A verandah/balcony overlooks the sea. The chalets are built in an indigenous Acacia and Natal Mahogany forest 20 metres from the sea. The lounge / dining room / bar area is separate, with a large airy patio overlooking the beach and sea across lawns and trees where attractive red tailed squirrels play. The Lodge boasts a new addition of a swimming pool (2004).
