Mahi Mahi 3 is a beachfront holiday house in the Mahi Mahi Estate at Ponta Mamoli, on the quiet dune coast well north of Ponta do Ouro village. The house is let as a whole, with a private pool, a patio and a sea view over the Indian Ocean. Mahi Mahi 3 is for a group that wants an empty beach rather than a village on the doorstep.
Best for
Mahi Mahi 3 suits families and groups with their own four-wheel drive who want a beachfront house on an undeveloped stretch of coast
It suits travellers without a suitable vehicle or wanting shops and restaurants nearby less well, as Ponta Mamoli is remote
Location
The house is in the Mahi Mahi Estate at Ponta Mamoli, on the coastal dune belt between Ponta Malongane and the Maputo Special Reserve boundary. In a straight line it is about 11 km north of our Ponta do Ouro village reference point, so the village’s shops, fuel and dive operators are a long drive down the coast. The frontage is open beach and forested dune.
Rooms and style at Mahi Mahi 3
The property is a house within the estate, let as a whole, with a patio. The number of bedrooms, the bed layout, the number of bathrooms, the sleeping capacity and the kitchen inventory are not set out in the available listing, so confirm all of those with the owner before committing, particularly if you are a large group.
Facilities at Mahi Mahi 3
Verified facilities include a private swimming pool, beachfront position, sea view, patio, free WiFi, free parking and family accommodation. There is no restaurant, bar or breakfast service listed, so bring everything you need; this is not a stretch of coast where supplies are easy to find.
Trade-offs and what to know
The remoteness means all food, fuel and supplies must be brought in
Access along the dune coast is by sand track and the listing does not state the vehicle requirement
Check-in closes at 16:00, which is demanding given the driving time from the border
Getting there and getting around
Ponta Mamoli is reached overland from the Kosi Bay border post with South Africa or by road south from Maputo, with the final stretch along sand tracks through the coastal dunes. Ask the owner directly whether a four-wheel drive is required and what the route is, since conditions vary. Free parking is provided at the house.
