Villas do Indico is a peaceful beachside haven 7-8kms north of Vilanculo. Luana and the staff were excellent - friendly, attentive & knowledgeable about the area. The rooms were perfect. Well appointed, with comfortable beds, black out curtains, the largest mozzie net we have ever seen! Sitting on the balcony watching the sea at the edge of the property was perfect. The only slight downside was no warning on Expedia that a 4x4 was essential to access the property. The sand road from the town was challenging & we were thankful we have a high clearance vehicle. This has not put us off visiting again & we will be back!!

Paradise Understood!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. Everything was done perfectly. Ana and Luis made sure that the overall guest experience was excellent. Our other host, John, made sure that all of our needs were met. The property is away from the main city which made it all the more peaceful. When we wanted to go into town John would arrange to get us to the main connection point and would arrange for a Tuk Tuk. The room was perfectly set up with a mosquito net. The value for money was excellent. We highly recommend this place!

Is a really wonderful place. Recommend Xavier highly. Bit disappointed that the lodge boats were not operating so we could not easily organize a trip to St Carolina island. That said the trip we did to Bazaruto was spectacular

Pretty hotel in tranquil setting

We had a lovely 5 -night stay here. It is on a quiet beach in a picturesque location, though getting to it is a bit of a bumpy ride on a sandy road. However, this did not stop us from doing a number of good activities from the hotel - canoeing, diving, horse riding etc. A pleasantly memorable holiday.

A very relaxing holiday.

Despite our family all being sick during our stay, we enjoyed our time at Villas do Indico very much. George the manager and the waiters Benny, Xavier and John were all super helpful and very patient given our sickness. The rooms were comfortable, the setting beautiful and we will be going back sometime, when hopefully we will be well.

Excellent staff!!!!

Our visit was during the winter; comfortable mornings and evenings and lovely warm afternoons. The property is nice and the ocean view wonderful. But, what makes this place special is the friendly, fun and smart staff (e.g, Benny, Boa, Benilde, Jorge, the skipper, Mauricio, Jeremiah and our friendly helpful room attendant). They "read" the needs of each guest and encouraged people to do what ever makes them happy. We had a mixture of activities (snorkeling and market visit) and do nothing but read times. I asked questions about the local food and beverages till the staff was probably going crazy. But, they never let on they were tired of my questions. Be sure to get out and meet local people in the town. Drop some cash to help support local agriculture and craft makers. Many people that own these villas that tourists stay in are foreigners so what you pay for the hotel doesn't do much good to improve the local economy. Get cash directly into locals' hands rather than getting the older rich richer.
