Company information

We are French and Italian and have been living in Vilankulo since 2007. Casa Babi was born in 2012. We live on site and are here to welcome you and help you make the most out of your stay. We do everything we can to make you feel at home.

Property information

We are located in the center of town one step from one of the nicest and most lively beaches in Vilankulo. The market is 15 minutes walk away. From our garden you'll enjoy amazing views of the bay and the life of an authentic African fishing village.

Neighbourhood information

A must do in Vilanculos is definitely an excursion to the stunning Bazaruto, it’s a taste of Namibia surrounded by the Indian Ocean, including diving or snorkeling on the famous Two Mile Reef. Trips can be organized from Casa Babi with our onsite dive center. We can as well organize for you amazing horseback riding on the beach. Our side of Vilanculos is a rising kite surfing destination, with its shallow, flat water, massive tides and ever-changing sea landscapes. Kite surfing in between the sand banks at low tide is an unforgettable experience, and an amazing spectacle for the non-kiters. There is a kite surf school 400 meters away from Casa Babi.
