Manico Camp

My accommodation was a simple traditional round hut, with a fan, and communal toilets and showers. Staff are friendly and helpful, always smiling, which made my stay enjoyable. I managed to get my 3 dinners without meat as well, thanks. Be warned that the public ferry doesn't run on Tuesday or Thursday, information that wasn't transmitted to me despite arranging a pickup from the ferry dock. Transport by speed boat was 3X the ferry price. Still, I really did enjoy the tranquility of the island and appreciated a dip in the small pool and the cushioned lounge chairs.

Tours are quite pricey, and bicycles were not available, so bring your own snorkel gear or books for entertainment. Breakfast is pricey, but even in town, the prices are high.

The location and the friendly staff. Storm, Eric and Zito were the best😊…

The food was very nice but took long to come..

People and activities

Relaxed chill vibe, camp manager is always working with a smile and helping to arrange things. There is a slow effort to improve some things. Cost for items like soda etc is very reasonable and they regularly give a ride into the village which is super nice. Conscious management in terms of not wanting things to develop too fast or squeeze every penny out of guests. Be ready to operate on “Moz time”—don’t expect to leave for things at the agreed time—just relax and everything will work out great.

Breakfast is supposedly served starting at 7:30 but good luck getting anything other than self serve coffee before 9:30. Some vegetarian food options would be welcome. Food can take a looong time. Get the twin instead of double as mosquito net is small for double bed and doesn’t really work for 2 people. A few tweaks by management could perhaps bring a little more profit and lead to better service, but overall it’s a great place with a wonderful vibe.

I loved the atmosphere. It was peaceful and safe environment. I loved the cabins just needed more lighting.

Bathroom facilities were beautiful but handles didn't work and a shower drain didn't drain. Also one canoe is filled with water and you cant drain it.

It was my wifes birthday and they put out rosses and a bottle of Champaign. Wanderful surprise for her.

They had a group of tourists at the lodge that partied till 2.30am with the manager played loud music and shouting. That was not good for us as no consideration was giben to us. Most definatly not go there again.
