“I cannot recommend this place highly enough.”
A peaceful and homely atmosphere, the most beautiful views, wonderful hosts, and the best food I had in Mozambique. I cannot recommend this place highly enough.

“The quiet and stunning view place to be in Vilanculos”
Sabrina et Denis did an amazing job in Casa Babi. You can enjoy the ocean view for hours, like a moving painting. Rooms are comfortable, all furnished with local decorations, mosquito nets and repellents are provided if needed. They also offer very nice food and good pieces of advice to visit the neighbourhood. Last but not least, we tried a massage with Rosa, in the garden with the ocean sound in the background… amazing experience. We will be back !

Casa Babi was great. The staff are professional and kind. They pay great attention to detail and everything is done with a lot of care. I want to highlight the food, it was spectacular. Everything is homemade and the menus for lunch and dinner are very original.

“WONDERFUL!”
Casa Babi is neat and cosy, as as it is a guest house, they have only a limited number of rooms, which means not so many people around, which makes the guest house even more enjoyable (if you value peace and quiet). The staff are all amazing - friendly and helpful. It is a little gem right on the beach with spectacular views (especially sunrise). It is worthwhile to stay here!
