About The Monarch

The Monarch was built with meticulous attention to the surrounding natural environment, tucked into the coastal dunes above the Machangulo Peninsula beach of southern Mozambique. This beachfront chateau was originally built for royalty and our guests will be provided fine dining and excellent service, where their every conceivable comfort is afforded. Days spent by the exclusive-use pool are truly gratifying for guests at this villa, with specially prepared cocktails in hand.

The villa is limited to 12 adult guests, with separate elegant rooms, each accommodating two people. The airy bedrooms offer luxurious comfort, permeated by the essences of the surrounding nature. Some of the suites are furnished with outside showers, for a wonderful and invigorating pampering experience.

This secluded and spectacular villa offers a premier, personalised vacation, on the magnificent Machangulo Peninsula’s coastline with unparalleled views of the Indian Ocean. Our villas are ideally located for access to the wondrous Machangulo Private Nature Reserve, and every other activity Machangulo has to offer. The beaches are pristine, private and endless, and you can spend days sunbathing or submerging in the temperate Indian Ocean. For ocean adventures, our concierges can organise whale watching, kite-surfing and deep-sea fishing experiences with nearby activity centres.
