Location and facilities were great, breakfast was excellent, and staff are super nice and helpful.

Kurt United States of America

I am reluctant to give this location the rave review that it deserves, simply because I am worried that it will be full next time I need a room in Maputo. It is a a real Gem. Enough said...

Peter South Africa

This is an adorable guest house and the staff are just SO friendly and helpful. It is located near many embassies and world organizations. The daily breakfast buffet was terrific and each day they provided a daily special item such as quiche, or eggs benedict. Really first rate.

Host Info

Host Review Score 9.2

With a prime location in the quiet Sommerschield neighborhood, there is no better place to relax after a busy day. Quality and comfort are complemented by the stunning décor and beautifully restored family home. With a welcoming service, great breakfast, cold beer and various spaces to chill out at the end of the day, convert Joli the perfect place to stay.

Located in the Sommerschield neighborhood, a quite residential area, where the majority of embassies are settled. Only to 10 minutes walking distance to several nice restaurants, turn this neighborhood a wonderful choice to stay.
