Nast Traveller magazine, member of Virtuoso.
Azura at Quilalea is a hidden gem, a private, wholly uninhabited island
paradise surrounded by the pristine waters of a marine sanctuary.
The
island has statuesque age old baobab groves and stunning flora and
fauna, with turtles nesting each year on one of the beaches. Azura at
Quilalea is an Eco-Boutique Retreat and consists of only nine seafront
villas, accommodating 18 guests. The villas are built from natural coral
stone and makuti thatch, and have all been revamped to increase comfort
with natural finishings, indoor/outdoor showers, private decks
stretching out to the beach, daybeds and sun-loungers for relaxing.
This is paradise for lovers of marine life and offers snorkelling and
scuba diving straight off the beach in front of your villa. Kayaking,
deep sea fishing, African spa experiences, exclusive picnics and beach
dinners can be organised and all guests receive Azura’s trademark
Mozambican Butler/Host service.
