Sentidos Beach Retreat

We came from Harare to travel to Mozambique, Inhambane via Nelspruit South Africa. Mozambique is beautiful and our seaside holiday was brilliant. We stayed at Praia Azul during out stay and used Sentidos Beach retreat to book our activities which included quad biking and deep sea fishing. We had been on the fishing trip and quad biking a year before with Sentidos and were well impressed with their staff and decided to use them again this year. The fishing trip this year was very disappointing as the guides were not very helpful and did not have any motivation to help us catch a fish. They did not have the correct fishing gear or knowledge on how to catch fish. The time of our fishing trip meant to be 6 hours, but we only fished for 2.5 hours before we were heading back. Whilst we were fishing, our wives were at the restaurant. To make matters worse their bill was equivalent to about $50 for a two very small omelettes, fruit juice, coffee and tea. 1 cups of basic tea was charged out at $4 which was a teabag in a pot of water. Unfortunately, tea was not shown on the menu and when we queried the charge, we were told teas are charged as iced tea charges. Explaining our concerns to the manager was met with a couldn't care less attitude. We were going to go on another trip with them cancelled to go with another company.

This is a really lovely hotel. Felt super safe with nice food and beautiful rooms. Staff are very helpful and lovely. The only thing I would say is that I couldn’t go straight onto the beach from my room which is a short walk to the access point but I could nevertheless see it from my balcony. There are some building works in the area which didn’t affect me. I really appreciated the airport pick up and drop off too. I would come again.

Such wonderful people in Inhambane! Very warm and kind. The food was great and the staff made the stay incredibly wonderful. I felt safe there. The language barrier made it difficult to communicate but was able to get by ok. I would definitely go back and visit, if it wasn’t such a long way off!

We had a wonderful stay at Sentitos resort. The highlight of the trip was Ria at the activities center. She made the experience one of the best family vacations we’ve ever taken. Ria arranged a flexible (depending on weather) itinerary for our week long stay and it was fantastic. She is a scuba instructor and gave our daughter a lesson almost every day. This was was the absolute highlight of our daughters day. The entire staff was wonderful and the resort is top notch. Highly recommended. My only recommendation is to add the ability to tip the staff via credit card. Cash is a little tough to come by.

I had an incredible 5-star experience at Ocean Safari Sentidos Beach Retreat. The wildlife sightings were extraordinary, and swimming with the whale shark was the highlight. Our guide, Ligogo, made the adventure enjoyable and fun, while Skipper Américo's driving skills and friendly demeanor added to the overall fantastic experience. Highly recommend this safari for nature enthusiasts!

What a peaceful place to reconnect with those you love most. The staff were wonderful and the accommodations were well kept. Really the layout, landscape and location cannot be beat.
