Lodge 3A sits on the inland side of Ponta do Ouro, back from the dunes in Mozambique’s southernmost village. It offers both individual air-conditioned rooms looking onto the pool and a three-bedroom house for groups, with room service and parking on the plot. Lodge 3A covers two quite different kinds of booking on one site.
Best for
Lodge 3A suits couples wanting a serviced room and groups wanting a whole three-bedroom house, both with pool access and parking
It suits guests who want to step straight onto the sand less well, since the beach is stated at over a kilometre away
Location
The property is on the western, inland side of Ponta do Ouro village. In a straight line it is about 2.1 km north-west of our Ponta do Ouro village reference point, and the listing puts Ponta do Ouro Beach within 1.6 km and the Kosi Bay Nature Reserve across the South African border at 26 km. The surroundings are village plots and coastal bush.
Rooms and style at Lodge 3A
Two very different options are named: a Queen Room with pool view, and a Three-Bedroom Home. Rooms have air conditioning and family rooms are among the choices. Bed configurations, bathroom arrangements, the capacity of the three-bedroom home and whether it has a kitchen are not set out in the available listing, so confirm which you are booking and what it contains.
Facilities at Lodge 3A
Verified facilities include a private swimming pool, air conditioning, free WiFi, free parking, room service and family rooms. No restaurant, bar or breakfast service is stated, so meals will either be self-catered in the three-bedroom home or taken at the eating places down in the village.
Trade-offs and what to know
The beach is over a kilometre away, so a vehicle or a decent walk is needed for every swim
Room service is listed but no restaurant, so ask what it actually covers
Capacity and kitchen details for the three-bedroom home are unpublished and need confirming
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 village roads are sand. Ask the property what vehicle is needed for the approach before you travel. Free parking is provided on site and no airport shuttle is listed.

Before you book
Confirm whether you are booking a room or the three-bedroom home, how many it sleeps, the bathroom arrangements, whether there is a kitchen, what room service covers, the vehicle needed on the sand roads, and the cancellation terms.
