Travessia is an Eco Beach Lodge that is all about understated barefoot-luxury. A mere 2,5 hours drive from the airport of Vilanculos, 1.5 hours from Inhambane, and just six kilometers of sand track away from the main road, the lodge is accessible enough for a long weekend break and yet remote enough still to give you that instant feeling of being cast-away. The buildings are constructed on elevated wooden decks with timber and roll-up canvas walls under a roof thatched with local makuti. Wooden walkways lead from the rooms to the Lodge's reception area and restaurant, with a lounge and a spacious deck, overlooking the palm grove and the sea. Casa de Mel The most secluded of all our rooms, approximately 150m away from the restaurant and lounge. It is a double room with king-size or twin beds, mosquito nets, ensuite bathroom with separate toilet and outdoor shower, large deck with hammock and sea views. The room can accommodate one extra bed for an accompanying child. Casa Tartaruga Our family room can accommodate four people in either two king-size or twin beds. The room is open plan with a canvas screen between the beds as a visual separation, but otherwise open. It is therefore ideal for a family with children or a group of four really good friends who don't mind sleeping dorm-style. It is equipped with mosquito nets, an ensuite bathroom with a separate toilet and outdoor shower, and a large deck with a hammock and 180-degree sea views. A fifth bed could be accommodated for a family of five. Casa Madeira A friendly wooden house, perched on top of a dune with 360 views. It comes with queen size bed, mosquito net, ensuite bathroom with separate toilet and shower, as well as a wooden deck with hammock and sea views. A short walk from the restaurant will take you to our beach bar and rim-flow plunge pool. Here, you can stretch out on our locally made loungers whilst enjoying 360-degree views over the endless coastline and a sea of palm trees of the hinterland.
