Quilalea Island

Quilalea is an idyllic Mozambique island resort located in the Quirimbas Archipelago in the tropical Indian Ocean. Completely uninhabited, this Indian Ocean island offers complete exclusivity and unparalleled natural beauty. Nine private villas each offer magnificent sea views, providing a malaria-free haven of luxury island accommodation. Each spacious villa is built of local materials and has a private veranda with panoramic sea views. All have ensuite bathrooms. Large windows offer magnificent views and allow the sea breeze to waft through the entire villa. The natural rock walls, makuti thatch, and colonial ceiling fans keep the villas cool by day. 

The restaurant and lounge is no more than a 2-minute walk from the most distant villa. Set on a peninsula at the north end of the island, the restaurant offers beautiful ocean views to both the west and the east. Guests can enjoy the local Mozambican cuisine influenced by Portugal and Goa, prepared by the gourmet chef. Meals can also be arranged on the beach for a special occasion.
