Manta da Barra

About Manta da Barra

Manta Da Barra Lodge is situated in Ponte de Barra, Inhambane, Mozambique, approximately 480 kilometers (6-7 hours drive) from Maputo and 25km from the historical town of Inhambane. Access by road is a pleasant drive by tarred road, which is suitable for the passage of a normal vehicle. However, the last 2km's leading to the lodge is a dirt road and is only accessible with a 4x4 vehicle. Storing arrangements for normal vehicles can be made by the management of Manta da Barra Lodge at one of our neighboring lodges at a minimal cost.

Our accommodation consists of 21 equipped self catering casita and casa, and tourists only need to bring their own bedding and towels, we also suggest you bring a pot suitable for cooking prawns, maize porridge and potjie. Each casa / casita is equipped with the following: mosquito nets, warm water, electricity (there is a back-up generator in place if a power cut should occur.), cutlery/plates/glasses/cups, set of steel pots, fridge/freezer combo, 3 plate gas stove (no oven / microwave), braai stand and sieve in front of every living space.

For those who don't want to take a walk to the beach for a swim, we have a lovely swimming pool with braai's close-by, where you can relax.

Servants are available to clean your house, do the dishes and wash your clothes. They are always prepared to clean your fish and prawns, and are experts in this field.

We are also in the fortunate position to have a borehole on the premises, supplying the lodge with water which is a 100% safe for drinking and cooking purposes.

Whether you are a keen fisherman, exploring photographer, family in need of a rest or a couple who wants a romantic getaway, Manta da Barra Lodge is the place for you. You'll wish you could stay forever!
