“Our stay at Mangal”
Upon arrival, all staff help carry bags to room. There is a beautiful view from the top deck, where we immediately sat down for a drink. Food is exceptional. We had a taste of 4 different dishes which the chef prepared.

“The lodge has potential but is not there yet”
The room was very nice and the bar on the elevated terrace has a stunning view. The concept of having a local style lodge, while training and employing local youth is convincing, but difficult to implement.

“Exceptional”
This tranquil, seaside oasis resort, tucked away on the outskirts of Vilankulos, takes your breath away. Clean, open and airy ťhatched cottages allow you to forget the world. The pool area with sun beds, raised bar area with views of the sea is africa-lux and restaurant is exceptional 👌. The chef is also willing to share some of his recipes. But what really makes this haven stand out is the friendly, attentive staff who go above and beyond .

“We enjoyed the stay at Mangal. It was very quiet and secluded. It is not a place for families with children.”
Very quiet, lovely pool and bar area. Air condition in the rooms. Friendly and helpful staff. Clean and neat room and bathroom. Ideal for couples.
