Our Yellow Zebra Opinion

Three lovingly restored Portuguese mansions make up the charming and luxurious Ibo Island Lodge. Located in the village of Ibo itself and offering wonderful tours of the historical island, this is the best cultural option in the Quirimbas Archipelago.

Dhow and kayak safari

The 14 guest rooms are in three buildings, all over 100 years old, with high ceilings and thick walls which keeps the interiors wonderfully cool. The rooms face the turquoise waters of the bay or the colourful tropical gardens. All are spacious, with lovely mahogany hand-carved beds, Indian silks throws, large windows and wide verandas.
