An ultra-luxury retreat
Opened in May 2021, the Kisawa Sanctuary hotel, nestled on
the island of Benguerra in southern Mozambique, straddles five kilometers of
unspoiled coastline of white sand whose waters are teeming with humpback
whales, dugongs, rays, dolphins, turtles, and whale sharks. Created by the
Swiss entrepreneur, creative director, and businesswoman Nina Flohr, the estate
is a welcoming place whose mission is to create a bond between people and
place; where luxury is defined by freedom and the generosity of thoughtful
choices.
Spread over 300 hectares of sand and forest, the very
exclusive and unspoiled area houses 22 custom-made bungalows spread over 12
residences as well as the Kisawa residence. The bungalows are either installed
in a sheltered cove or placed in the dunes, overlooking the endless ocean.
They are built with local materials, uniquely furnished, dressed in various
elements including African crafts, and decorated in individual color
combinations. Parts of the bungalows and furniture have been 3D printed from sand
and seawater mortar. Each has one or more bedrooms, a generous bathroom, a
lounge area, an outdoor kitchen, an infinity pool, an enveloping
terrace, its own seafront, and excellent services. Each bungalow offers maximum
privacy and an optimal appreciation of the natural environment.
At the heart of the sanctuary, guests benefit from common
areas dedicated to catering, relaxation, and well-being. The hotel has several
restaurants including Cove Mussassa, Barraca, Pizza Tuk Tuk, and Robata,
serving dishes made with garden vegetables and organic produce. There is also a
lagoon-style infinity pool, a beach bar, a library, a freestanding spa with
architecture inspired by thatched-roof village houses, a clay tennis court, and
a diving center.
The first luxury hotel to be 3D printed, this is an ideal
place for a weekend getaway or a long rewarding vacation, perfect for relaxing.
