Ondas de Mar Lodge is situated in the picturesque province of Inhambane with its coconut tree lined beaches and friendly people, just 485km north of Maputo.

On arrival you will be greeted by a stunning 180 degree ocean view and a warm smile from our friendly staff. This is just the beginning of your holiday in paradise.

The lodge is located on the dunes of the “light house” side of the Praia de Barra. This secluded spot was carefully chosen for its magnificent sea views, pristine beach (100m away), and most of all the fact that there are no palm flies that can ruin your holiday.

Our vision was to build a holiday destination where our guests could leave their hectic daily lives behind and come and relax in one of the most beautiful destinations in Southern-Africa. Ondas de Mar is the ideal destination, whether you are looking to pack as much adventure and activity into your schedule, catch that elusive Marlin, or just sit back and enjoy a good novel at the crystal clear swimming pool, or your private hot tub or splash pool.

In addition to the high standard of accommodation and personal service, the surrounding area offers an abundance of sightseeing opportunities, activities and a variety of bars and restaurants.

We take pride in insuring you get the most out of your well-earned holiday, and this is supported by the fact that more than 80% of our guests return to Ondas de Mar year after year.
