Paradise Just Around the Corner



White Pearl Resorts, Mozambique
  
What comes to mind when you hear the phrase “beach holiday”? An exotic destination far away requiring months of planning and hours of flying, or spending all your savings just to share a tiny spot of beach sand with hundreds of others while barely even having a view of the ocean? White Pearl Resorts will change the way you think about traditional beach holidays, and the best part is that it’s just around the corner.

Often, being beautiful goes hand in hand with being “inaccessible”. This is far from the truth when it comes to this five-star jewel. Situated along the southern coast of Mozambique, a mere one hour drive from the South African border at Kosi Bay, or a quick fixed-wing flight from the country’s capital, Maputo, this luxury resort is not only beautiful, but easily accessible.

From the moment you step into reception, greeted by the warmest smiles and spectacular views, until when your private butler serves you a glass of champagne on the deck of your Pool Suite, you instantly realise that this holiday will be unlike any other.

Each new day is yours to spend however you wish. Craving some much needed relaxation? Take in the Indian Ocean views while lounging on one of many luxurious day beds. Swim up to the Pool Bar to enjoy a signature cocktail, or listen to the gentle sounds of nature as all tension is eased away with a full body massage.


Up for some ocean adventure? The secluded bay at White Pearl Resorts, also a protected marine reserve, is home to a variety of world renowned dive spots and spectacular sea life. Diving and snorkelling expeditions come highly recommended, and offer guests the opportunity to experience Mozambique from within its tranquil, clear waters. On an ocean safari, guests can jump in and swim with bottlenose dolphins, an experience that should be on any traveller’s bucket list.

And now for the **pièce de résistance**: the pristine White Pearl beach. Due to its remoteness, the resort is blessed with an immaculate stretch of private beach that is uncrowded and untouched. The beach provides an unmatched natural setting for basking in the sun, taking endless walks, or galloping into the sunset on horseback. From November, beaches in this area are visited by endangered Loggerhead and Leatherback turtles laying their precious eggs in the soft white sands. In the new year, these eggs hatch, and baby turtles embark on a journey back to the ocean. Throughout turtle nesting season, guests at White Pearl Resorts may be lucky enough to witness this natural miracle in action on a guided turtle walk. The resort is actively involved in conservation and monitoring initiatives in the area.

As for the little ones, White Pearl Resorts has an exciting kids skipper programme, called Pirates of Ponta, that will keep them occupied for hours. Guided by the resort’s experienced activity team, the programme is filled with fun, as well as educational activities that encourage children to explore the mysteries and wonders of Ponta Mamoli’s land and sea. From beach sports and sandcastle building to baking with the chef and treasure hunting, there is no shortage of fun for all ages at White Pearl Resorts.

Let’s not forget the authentic and highly celebrated culinary experience which offers a gastronomic explosion of the senses. With fresh, quality ingredients grown on-site and sourced from the community, every meal is sure to deliver the true tastes of Mozambique. Guests can wake up to a breakfast tray of fresh fruit, pastries and continental treats set out on the sunny deck. The trendy Beach Bar is the ideal spot to indulge in mouth-watering tapas lunches and signature cocktails. Dinner is an extravagant affair with a three course menu that offers something for every discerning palette. Each night the chef entices guests with a special Mozambican option, appealing to those guests who love trying something new and unique to the destination.

The resort is also designed to host spectacular events, weddings and exclusive conferencing for up to 42 guests. Tailor-made packages are available on request.

Whether you are seeking a relaxing escape, a family vacation, or an executive retreat, White Pearl Resorts is the ideal destination to escape the ordinary and experience a truly distinctive beach holiday.
