Azura Benguerra Island

Azura’s attentive staff that have been one of the main attributes to Azura’s success work very closely with management and the kitchen brigade to ensure that guests continue to receive the notoriously impeccable service and cuisine.

The mixology cocktail concept is a first for Mozambique, with 5 steps to creating everyone’s perfect cocktail: spirit, mixer, fruitiness, style and décor. Azura’s management is in place to ensure everything runs as smoothly as the rest of operations.

Azura Retreats introduces the new Peri-Peri Beach Club, encouraging guests to spend days lounging at the beach bar or pool, enjoying their favourite Mozambican cuisine, magnums of French Rosé wine, or creating their own cocktails through

the specially designed mixology menu. The new beach club and bar incorporates a range of activities including an ocean facing swimming pool, personal grills where guests can sizzle their own seafood and on selected nights an open-air cinema. The beach club also has a Spa pavilion for African-themed massages. It’s a great spot for guests to have lunch or spend the day in a sociable beach club environment.

Azura Peri-Peri Beach celebrates Mozambique's Portuguese history and Portuguese influences can be seen in both the décor and on the menu. We've always loved the famous beach clubs like Club 55 in the South of France and so wanted

to create a similar space at Azura for people to enjoy beautiful stretch of beach in style. It has a relaxed yet sociable feel so guests can spend the day just enjoying the space, with great cocktails and magnums of Rosé from Chateau in France or dine on Mozambican specialities like Crab Casquinhas and Piri-Piri Chicken and Prawns. The tables open up to reveal personal charcoal grills for sizzling Steak and Prawns and we've also added a pizza oven for serving gourmet pizzas Azura style.

Peri-Peri Beach Club is located about a kilometre along the beach from Azura Benguerra Island, Mozambique's leading luxury beach hotel. It was built from the ground up which involved redeveloping the entire infrastructure, creating new faci

lities including a bar, rest-rooms, a new kitchen in which to recreate Azura's renowned five star cuisine, pizza oven, lounging pavilions and raised sala areas - similar to those we have at each of the 20 Villas. The bar has been beautifully designed in that subtle yet stunning Azura way; with Portuguese tiles, natural furnishings and pure African elegance, and an alluring swimming pool and breath-taking views over the Indian Ocean.
