Azura at Quilalea Private Island

Private island retreat Azura is adding a second Mozambique location to its repertoire. After a six-month, $2.5 million renovation of the former Quilalea lodge, Azura at Quilalea Private Island opened November 1. Situated in a protected marine sanctuary in the Indian Ocean, the 86 pristine acres are about 932 miles north of Azura’s other property, Benguerra Island, and offer nine refurbished beachside villas and a new PADI-certified dive and water sports center.

Managed by the same award winning team, with that unmistakable, chic Azura style. This stunning island is back on the map as one of the country’s top beach destinations. The nine luxury villas beautifully revamped in that subtle yet stunning Azura way, with spacious bathrooms, natural furnishings and pure African elegance.

There are three categories for guests to choose from; Sunrise Villa’s with stunning sea views, Sunset Villas with a beachside sala and refreshing outside shower and Villa Quilalea – an exceptional property on the cliff top with alluring plunge pool and breathtaking views over the Indian Ocean .   www.azura-retreats.com
