The Esperanza Lodge (Paindane North Reef Lda - trading as "Esperanza Lodge) is
situated 26km south of Inhambane. It is adjacent to the well known Paindane
Beach Resort to the north, and the upmarket
Lighthouse Reef Resort to the south. Esperanza Lodge (Portuguese for "HOPE") is
being build by the same developer as the Lighthouse Reef Resort. Esperanza is
situated on high dunes, overlooking the Indian Ocean and the famous Paindane
Reef and Bay. The constant breeze from the ocean ensures a fresh and virtually

with kayaks is a great attraction. The natural beauty of the surroundings, the

reefs, bird watching and, for the more adventurers, horse riding on endless
