C-Mew is a family-owned guest house and restaurant at Tofinho, the headland just south of Tofo village on Mozambique’s Inhambane Coast. It trades in full as C-Mew Restaurant and Guest House, and the kitchen is as much a part of the business as the rooms, with a seafood restaurant open on site. The position gives a wide outlook over the Indian Ocean.
Best for
C-Mew suits travellers who want a small, family-run base with meals available on the premises and diving or surfing close by.
It suits less well groups needing several rooms together or self-catering space, since the published information describes a small guest house rather than a complex of units.
Location
The guest house stands at Tofinho, the rocky headland south of Tofo village, with a broad ocean outlook. In a straight line it is about 2.5 km south-east of our Tofo village reference point.
Rooms and style at C-Mew
Room types and counts are not published on either source read, so this is the weakest part of the picture. What is stated is that C-Mew is a guest house rather than a self-catering complex, and that it is family owned and run. Ask directly how many rooms there are, whether bathrooms are private or shared, what bed configurations are available and whether any room has air-conditioning or only a fan.
Facilities at C-Mew
Verified facilities include an on-site seafood restaurant, a bar, an outdoor pool and a 180-degree ocean outlook. Nothing in the sources confirms wifi, air-conditioning, parking arrangements or laundry, so treat those as questions to put to the owners rather than as given.
Trade-offs and what to know
Room detail is not published anywhere, so you are booking on correspondence rather than on a described product.
Tofinho is a short distance from Tofo village, which means a walk or a lift for shops and the dive schools in the village itself.
As a small family-run place, capacity is limited and flexibility on dates may be too.
Getting there and getting around
Tofo and Tofinho are reached overland from Inhambane town on the surfaced coastal road, with the last part running through the dune village. Neither source states whether the final approach needs a high-clearance vehicle, so check when you enquire. Flights into the region arrive at Inhambane, and the guest house does not describe a transfer service of its own.

Before you book
Confirm the number and type of rooms, whether the bathroom is private, and what the rate includes in the way of meals given that there is a restaurant on site. Ask about restaurant opening days, parking, power and water supply, whether diving can be arranged through the house, and what the deposit and cancellation terms are.
