Pam Golding Lodges and Guesthouses (PGLAG) has announced that it is currently marketing two investment options on the Quirimbas Archipelago in Mozambique.

 The first is a private island and a five-star lodge. It includes eight guest villas, each with lounge and deck, main building with a restaurant, bar and lounge area, deck with swimming pool, well-equipped kitchen, manager’s accommodation, two chalets for visitors/guides and two staff villages currently under construction.
 
The property further offers 1,5km of tropical beach and some smaller beaches offer activities including scuba diving, game fishing and snorkelling.
 
The property is 45 minutes from Pemba International Airport by light aircraft.
 
The property is priced at €6,5m (R74,6m) or investors can look at part-ownership.
 
The second option is a five-star beach and bush resort that incorporates a luxury boutique lodge, comprising seven ocean-view resort villas and 10 residential seaside plots.
 
The property is located 15 minutes by boat from Pemba International Airport and is set on a peninsula inhabited by a variety of species of wildlife and is in a buffer zone of the Quirimbas National Park. The price for the lodge is US$2, 95m (R26m).
 
The main lodge includes a pool bar, cliff-edge terrace, dining room, kitchen, reception, lounge area, two first-floor bedrooms en-suite with private verandas, library, cigar bar and a veranda ideal for private functions with ocean views. There is a mangrove beach bar set on stilts with a large wooden deck and an island table for two, ideal for sunset drinks or romantic dinners at the water's edge, and a cliff-edge spa. The seven ocean-view resort villas are located on a cliff overlooking the bay and include a spectacular baobab tree villa.
 
Activities include bush walks, diving, game and fly fishing, dolphin and whale viewing, deep-sea fishing, bird watching and sunset sailing. This is an area where sea turtles migrate and lay their eggs on the beach in season, with the coastal bush home to elephant, leopard, kudu and numerous small game.
