Great place to stay!!!!!
Pros:

Great place to stay. The host, Miguel, was very helpful and friendly, as were his staff. The rooms were very clean and comfortable. Location was excellent. Highly recommended. We will stay there gain when next in Maputo.

Cons:

Difficult to find. No street number on the listing. No signage out side. We were driving around Sommershield to find the place for around an hour at night. Drove past probably 5 times. We didn't have data and couldn't get through by phone. Finally a local person showed us where the guest house is.

One of the best places I’ve ever stayed in!
Pros:

Miguel was a fantastic host. Always going above and beyond to help. He gave me lots of useful info on how to reach Malagueta after taking the bus from Eswatini, he helped me sort transport to Tofo Beach, which can be tricky otherwise, he helped with all sorts of logistical stuff and local advice.

The receptionist was also super friendly and helpful

The room was a large size, had perfect wifi, was very clean and comfortable too

There was even a large swimming pool outside

Cons:

Nothing. Everything was amazing and I can’t wait to come back!

Un séjour très agréable grâce à un accueil chaleureux, un cadre soigné et une atmosphère paisible.
Pros:

L’accueil a été particulièrement chaleureux, avec des hôtes toujours souriants, disponibles et vraiment attentifs. La propreté de la chambre et des espaces communs est remarquable et l’hygiène générale très satisfaisante. J’ai beaucoup apprécié le calme de l’endroit et la piscine est un vrai plus. Idéal pour se reposer. Je tiens à remercier chaleureusement Miguel et Martinho : leur gentillesse, leur disponibilité et leur attention ont largement contribué à rendre ce séjour inoubliable.

Cons:

Le Wi Fi était très bon au départ, puis un peu moins stable en fin de séjour, mais globalement utilisable.

Wonderful place. We were made to feel very welcome and well looked after. We could have happily stayed longer and cooked for ourself on the bbq. The pool and rooms were immaculate.
