Best for

It suits guests wanting a single large block of rooms less well, since the property is split across four separate, differently sized casitas.

The property has four named units: The Bungalow (six guests, two bedrooms, 90 sqm), The Nut Hut (four guests, two bedrooms, 90 sqm), Fisherman’s (four guests, open-plan, 49 sqm) and Cosy Corner (four guests, open-plan, 49 sqm), giving a total stated capacity of 17 guests across the property.
Facilities at Nao Faz Mal
Verified facilities include braai and barbecue areas and space for pit-fire gatherings. The site also lists snorkelling, diving, fishing, dhow trips and local markets as activities available in the surrounding area.
Trade-offs and what to know
The two open-plan units, Fisherman’s and Cosy Corner, are smaller at 49 sqm than the two-bedroom Bungalow and Nut Hut, so layout should be checked against group size.
As a self-catering property, guests need to plan their own meals rather than relying on an in-house restaurant.
Getting there and getting around
Nao Faz Mal is reached along the roads and tracks around Praia da Barra; the property does not state whether a 4×4 is required.
