Azura Retreats introduces the new ‘Peri-Peri Beach Club’ encouraging guests to spend days lounging at the beach or pool enjoying their favourite Mozambican cuisine, magnums of French Rosé wine, or creating their own cocktails through the specially designed mixology menu.

Azura Retreats, renowned for their award-winning luxury islands, has introduced Peri-Peri Beach Club. The new beach club and bar incorporates a range of activities including an ocean facing swimming pool, personal grills where guests can sizzle their own seafood and on selected nights an open-air cinema. Other activities that are already on offer such as Paddle-Boarding can also be arranged from the bar. The beach club also has a Spa pavilion for African themed massages.   

“Azura Peri-Peri Beach celebrates Mozambique’s Portuguese history, and Portuguese influences can be seen in both the décor and on the menu” says Stella Bettany, one of Azura Retreats’ co-founders and visionary behind the bar. “I’ve always loved the famous beach clubs like Club 55 in the South of France and so wanted to create a similar space at Azura for people to enjoy our beautiful stretch of beach in style. It has a relaxed yet sociable feel so guests can spend the day just enjoying the space, with great cocktails and magnums of Rosé from our Chateau in France or dine on Mozambican specialities like Crab Casquinhas and Piri-Piri Chicken and Prawns. The tables open up to reveal personal charcoal grills for sizzling Steak and Prawns and we’ve also added a pizza oven for serving gourmet pizzas Azura style.”

Peri-Peri- Beach Club is located about a kilometre away from Azura Benguerra Island, Mozambique’s leading luxury beach hotel. It was built from the ground up which involved  redeveloping the entire infrastructure, creating new facilities including a bar, rest-rooms, a new kitchen in which to recreate Azura’s renowned five star cuisine, pizza oven, lounging pavilions and raised sala areas - similar to those we have on each of the 20 Villas. The bar has been beautifully designed in that subtle yet stunning Azura way; with Portuguese tiles, natural furnishings and pure African elegance and an alluring swimming pool and breath-taking views over the Indian Ocean.

Azura’s attentive staff that have been one of the main attributes to Azura’s success work very closely with management and the kitchen brigade to ensure that guests continue to receive the notoriously impeccable service and cuisine. The mixology cocktail concept is a first for Mozambique, with 5 steps to creating everyone’s perfect cocktail: spirit, mixer, fruitiness, style and décor. Azura’s management is in place to ensure everything runs as smoothly as the rest of our operations.

Peri-Peri Beach Club will be open to the public with prior arrangements as in-house guests always take first preference. There are daily packages available which include access to the bar and pool, meals and beverages. There are also fly-in helicopter packages available for guests in the surrounding area to enjoy the bar and Azura’s world renowned hospitality. Private use for parties and celebrations can be arranged on request.

Azura Retreats and Peri-Peri Beach Bar look forward to welcoming guests to the hottest spot this side of Two-Mile Reef from December 2019 onwards.
