A Warm African Welcome, Thanks to Southern Sun Mozambique

Discerning holiday-makers all know that one of East Africa’s shiniest gems is the capital of Mozambique – especially thanks to its proximity to a wealth of water sport activities, as well as some of the best cuisine on the east coast.

They also know that for top-notch hospitality, superior value for money and the ultimate location, one hotel has it all. Perched right on the beach, and with sweeping views of the Indian Ocean as far as the eye can see, Southern Sun Maputo – Southern Sun’s Mozambique flagship – encapsulates the heart of the city’s Portuguese heritage.

Maputo, formerly known as Louren§o Marques, is also called the City of Acacias, thanks to the abundance of bright purple acacia trees commonly lining its avenues. And the city’s other nickname – the Pearl of the Indian Ocean – needs no explanation given this bustling port’s idyllic setting on the coast. It’s the perfect combination of sun, sea and sand, and the staff at Southern Sun Mozambique has truly gone out of their way to create a restful haven for leisure and business travellers alike.

Guests are spoilt for choice and can opt for everything from relaxing on the plush loungers poolside, hitting the beach or venturing into the city (with its rich history and mesmerising mix of cultures) for some adventurous exploring. The city is brimful of exciting tours aimed at giving tourists a bird’s eye view of Maputo’s exotic sights and sounds. And of course, Southern Sun Mozambique is always at the ready to organise these tours for you according to your preferences.

After a day of exploration and the excitement of water-based adventures(including nearby scuba diving facilities and even full-day excursions to the island of Inhaca), it’s such a relief to be able to retreat to the peaceful seclusion of Southern Sun Mozambique’s Maputo Hotel. As it’s ever so slightly detached from the rest of the city, it provides a tranquil setting – while being within easy reach of a variety of swanky restaurants, bars and street shopping opportunities.

Set right on the water’s edge – a veritable palm fringed, frangipani-scented, beach – accommodation comprises 158 elegantly furnished rooms. And with a distinct nod in the direction of the notion that comfort is key, the rooms offer all kinds of amenities – as well as spectacular sea views – to ensure that guests feel truly at home.

The best part? Having breakfast on the lush green lawn overlooking the vast Indian Ocean – Southern Sun Mozambique style.
