Paraiso do Ouro Resort

We had a hick-up during our five night stay. Somehow the resort did not get our booking from Orbitz. The resort did not expect us and this caused us to be moved around three times during our stay. It caused a damper on the trip for the first day as I prepaid and planned everything months in advance and I felt let down by both the resort and Orbitz. Overall we had a great experience the resort caters for all your needs and has relaxing holiday vibe and is perfectly located by the beach. The resort has a deck overlooking the beach for meals, also a bar and eating slash entertainment area. There is massage parlor and a conference area that doubles up as a church on Sundays. Unfortunately the fridge and televisions does not function in all the rooms and some of the sliding doors of the units have difficulty locking. The food prices were a bit steep compared to the rest of Mozambique but I think its due to the influx of South African tourists with a stronger currency. The staff are very helpful and went out of their way fix our booking problems. The highlight of the resort for us was the close proximity to the beach and to the dive centres and other amenities in the area!

Very convenient and accessible to beautiful beaches, good swimming pool area, the unit itself could do with alot more maintenance and aesthetic upliftment (eg, shower heads need replacing, taps are leaking, towel rails, mats, clean kettles, etc), it would definitely assist the resort to get a better rating and make the stay much more pleasant and comfortable.
