Dorado Lodge is a select, exclusive private lodge situated at Praia da Barra, just a short drive from the harbour town Inhambane, approximately 490km north of Maputo. This region with it's unspoilt beaches, crystal clear waters, abundant sea life and friendly locals, is one of Mazambique's favoured holiday destinations. Praia da Barra is the southern point of the Inhambane bay.

The road from the border is tarred up to Bar Babalaza, 7kms from Praia da Barra with the last part of the road being gravel. The lodge is accessible by 2X4 vehicle but a 4X4 or 2X4 with difflock is recommended if you want to park next to your chalet or explore the area. Dorado Lodge's chalets, built on ironwood stilts with raised decks are picture perfect. Situated on the primary dune, you will experience an exceptional 180° view of the turquoise bay, as you look through huge, gently swaying coconut palms. Soak up the tropical view of the coconut silhouettes from the entertainment areas as well as from all the bedrooms. Dorado Lodge allows you the opportunity to simply enjoy the privacy and all the benefits of the lodge, but less than a kilometre away, neighbouring lodges offer excellent restaurants, bars and various other forms of entertainment.
