Baia Sonambula Team
Whether it is to watch the Humpback Whales from your private deck, take a romantic break or that ultimate dive holiday, we ensure that your comfort is our priority. Each room conveys the subtle, yet lavish boutique appeal of French inspired guesthouses. Think fresh flowers, smooth stone floors cool underfoot, crisp white linen, cozy reading room, white washed walls, large double showers, slabs of wooden furniture and large bay windows proffering endless sea views. Lavish king-sized beds and carved wooden and rattan furniture overflowing with plump batik print cushions with large 50’s style overhead ceiling fans are the main focus of the spacious bedrooms, laced with French accents and European bathroom appointments. A stay in the Honeymoon suite or bungalow rooms extends elegance outdoors onto a private wooden deck that views the essence of Tofo Beach, from the ocean sunrise each morning to the colourful star-studded skyline each night. Lush gardens and peaceful wooden sundecks with linen awnings and a central kitchen where baked good aromas waft endlessly, round out Baia Sonambula ultimate beach haven, transplanting the revived historic property back on the Southern African Beach
Open since 2008, and nestled unassumedly behind Tofo Beach and white washed stone and thatch walls with flowering bougainvillea lapping over its edges, Baia Sonambula (“Sleeping Beach”) offers an understated stylish beach hideaway at a standard unparalleled in the rustic beach village. With just five rooms, relaxation, privacy and comfort are our priority. This is a place to feel at home. baiasonambula-20After a night rested on thick Egyptian cotton sheets and waking to the sound of rolling waves lapping at the sand just 30 metres below your room, ease your way into the day with a delectable, all homemade, breakfast feast. Homemade creamy yoghurt, endless combinations of delightful homemade fruit jams (cinnamon and mango if you please!), freshly baked muffins and pastries, granola sumptuous Mozambican rich coffee and local tropical fruits and nuts a mere sniff of the breakfast that awaits you each day on the wooden roof terrace overlooking Tofo Bay. Slip into a day bed or hammock with a fresh mint and ginger iced tea or perhaps a gin and tonic from our well-stocked honesty bar and find out what a true beach break is all about. Or, if it is culture you seek, take a short 150 m
Tofo is a fantastic beach on the Indian Ocean. The quiet village of Tofo has a planty to offer for everyone. From the amazing diving, endless beaches, local culture, etc... It'a all year round destination!
