 Sunset Lodge is situated approximately 496kms north of Maputo on the Barra Point with mangrove swamps which frame the calm waters of the Inhambane Bay.

Barra is well known for its game fishing & boat launching from the beach is smooth & easy. The vast array of unexplored reefs which team with marine life, are perfect for snorkelling or scuba.

Sunset Lodge is perfectly positioned to capture the gentle sea breezes which offer a refreshing relief from the balmy summer conditions.

The Thirsty Parrot restaurant & bar serves up a variety of hearty meals as well as the most popular cocktails in town. The entertainment area consists of a semi wrap-around swimming pool with bar service directly to those relaxing in the pool (great ringside seats for those must-see sports events) & a large airy restaurant & deck area. This offers an ideal setting to witness the most spectacular sunsets over the bay whilst sipping on an exotic cocktail.

Accommodation is offered in cool, tiled chalets with thatched roofs. These 8 to 10 sleeper spacious units are fully equipped for self-catering and comprise 3 to 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms (one of which is en-suite), large open plan kitchen/lounge/dining area. Situated approximately 1,5km off the beach on a sand dune, they offer grand views of both beach and bay from their individual patio and braai (barbeque) areas.

The "Brick Cottage" which sleeps up to 6 guests is fully equipped for self-catering purposes & consists of 2 bedrooms, shower & toilet, open plan kitchen, lounge & dining area. This unit is cool & airy in the hot summers. It also has its own braai area. Please note that this unit is not situated close to the main units & does not have sea views.

This quaint unit sleeps 2 guests (2 single beds) It consists of one bedroom, shower, toilet, hand basin, open plan kitchen/lounge area. It is fully equipped for basic self-catering accommodation.
