andBeyond Benguerra Lodge is small and intimate and offers genuine hospitality, personalised service and intimate knowledge of the natural environment. It has a rich East African/Arabic feel - evinced in both the décor and the unique and delectable food. The rooms all merge naturally into the surrounding forest and are only moments from the gorgeous silver-white beach of Benguerra Bay.

This andBeyond Benguerra Lodge is passionate about conservation and dedicated to the involvement of the local community in conserving this idyllic corner of the world. This is barefoot luxury at its very best!

It is no wonder that Benguerra is one of the most sought after African island destinations for the discerning international traveller.
