Easily accessible from Johannesburg, Marlin Lodge is an ideal pre or post-safari break for couples and families alike. It lies on the picture postcard Island of Benguerra, in the Bazaruto Archipelago nicknamed the crown jewels of the Indian Ocean for its superb diving and fishing.
Recently refurbished, the lodge feels immensely private and is scattered along a beach of such perfection that it almost defies belief. Just eighteen wood and thatch chalets epitomise luxurious island chic, with creamy furnishings, elegant dark wood furniture and polished floors. Romantic luxury chalets as well as two family chalets are available and all have direct access to individual private areas on the beach. Dining at Marlin is a delight, ranging from sumptuous and romantic candlelit dinners on the beach to the semi-formality of the dining room, whilst menus rely heavily on delicious local seafood enhanced by delicate island spices. The lodge has a pretty pool surrounded by palms backing onto an immaculate beach from which a wide range of water sports are available. Diving and snorkelling that are out of this world, legendary fishing, island hopping and dhow sundowner cruises are also major attractions to compliment the sheer bliss of just being at Marlin Lodge.
