Casa 26 Graus is a self-contained beachfront house on the dune coast north of Ponta do Ouro village, in the Matutuíne district of far southern Mozambique. It is let as a whole property with its own pool and a balcony, so a group takes the house rather than booking rooms in a lodge. Casa 26 Graus is aimed at people who want the shoreline to themselves rather than a resort with a reception desk.
Best for
Casa 26 Graus suits a family or a group of friends who want a private beachfront house with their own pool and the freedom to self-cater
It suits solo travellers and anyone wanting on-site catering, a bar or organised activities less well, since none of those is part of the property
Location
The house sits on the beachfront north of the main village at Ponta do Ouro, on the stretch of coast that runs up towards Ponta Malongane. In a straight line it is about 2.6 km north of our Ponta do Ouro village reference point, so the dive centres, shops and eating places of the village itself are a short drive or a long walk along the sand. The setting is dune bush and open beach rather than street frontage.
Rooms and style at Casa 26 Graus
The property is let as a single house rather than as individual rooms, and all of it is non-smoking. A balcony forms part of the accommodation. The number of bedrooms, the sleeping capacity and the kitchen equipment are not set out in the material available, so establish how many the house sleeps and how the bedrooms are arranged before you commit.
Facilities at Casa 26 Graus
Verified facilities include a private outdoor swimming pool, beachfront position, free WiFi, free parking and non-smoking accommodation, along with a balcony. There is no stated restaurant, bar or breakfast service, so assume you are catering for yourselves and bring or buy supplies in the village.
Trade-offs and what to know
There is no on-site catering or staffed reception, so everything from meals to supplies is your own arrangement
Being north of the village means a drive for shops, dive operators and restaurants
Sleeping capacity and kitchen details are not stated in the available listing, so they need confirming in writing
Getting there and getting around
Ponta do Ouro is reached overland from the Kosi Bay border post with South Africa or by road south from Maputo, and the coastal tracks in this area are sand. The listing does not state the surface at the property itself, so ask the owner what vehicle you need and whether a four-wheel drive is required to reach the house. Free parking is provided once you arrive.

Before you book
Confirm how many bedrooms and beds the house has, what the kitchen is equipped with, whether linen and towels are supplied, what vehicle you need for the final approach, arrival arrangements — the property asks to be told your time in advance — and the cancellation terms.
