Nascer do Sol offers a wonderful escape. The cove is unbelievable, one feels as if you are on a lunar landscape. Situated in an are close to a magnificent lilly encrusted lake. Superbly decorated with clean and well attended modern chalets, equipped with everything you would need to self cater. Yet the restaurant is very reasonable and tasty dishes available. The staff are attentive and unobtrusive and the owner, Pete's and his family's story is one to behold.

Nestled in a cove with chalets overlooking the sea, charming accommodation, certainly worth a visit. We stayed in a fully furnished 3 bedroom, all en suite, chalet with a fabulous view of the sea. Highly recommended for families.

Since our first visit to Nascer do Sol in 2012, we’ve loved the place. We have found ourselves on numerous occasions talking about our second home, this is exactly what it feels like. Jacques, Sonja, Erma, Peet, Belinha as well as the other members of staff always ready to assist in trying to make your holiday even more unforgettable. 2018 was no different, fantastic holiday destination for the entire family. The addition of the new swimming pool area brought an entirely different experience to this holiday, now, if you don't really feel like a beach but still getting hot, you could have a swim in a beautiful pool and if you thirsty get your cocktail served from the pool cocktail bar. Keep up the good work and see you soon.

Stunning holiday destination. Overall great for self catering. We did have a problem with entering with a non 4x4 vehicle. Getting the road graded would assist. Then a rodent problem...hope it can be sorted since it was only our unit affected it seems. Otherwise stunning food in restaurant, beaches beautiful and uncluttered. Lovely, will go back!

We visited Nascer do Sol during the October school vacation. Our chalet (Stingray) was situated on a dune right on the beach. It also has a splash pool which is nice. This specific chalet is due for an upgrade and should be wonderful after the upgrade. At the moment it is not very nice and renovations desperately needed. The personnel were very friendly and helpful. Just keep in mind that this resort is quite far from the nearest town with a big shop (Shoprite). The little shop on the premises has a bit of everything and bread rolls can be ordered daily. There was no TV in the unit, so keep that in mind when booking with smaller kids. We enjoyed the quietness and the long stretch of beach in front of the units. This is the perfect place if your aim is to enjoy and unwind.

We have booked to camp at Nascer do Sol on our way back to RSA from Inhambane. The resort 'manager' Jacques ensured us they had camping and space for the 2 nights we required. On our arrival.....there were no camping sites....only baracas which is the equivalent to a wooden hut with 2 beds in...no bedding and hmm yes matrasses that i cannot describe the condition of ..... They call this a campsite.... So if you expect to camp...with a tent or a trailer...with a power point....you will not find it here.... Their photos on their website is also deceptive as it shows wide open spaces (perhaps they had space 10yrs ago) with camping but now there is only this filthy wooden huts with dirty matresses in it they call camping. This was not what we booked ( and fully paid 4 weeks before arriving) Once back home we emailed Jacques to get our monies paid back to us...but he bluntly refused We were a party of 11 guests, paid more than R4500.00 for 2 nights, could not use the resort and they did not even want to refund us our monies( or half of it) while it was their problem of misleading internet advertising and lying on email stating they had this amazing camping while there was NONE. The restaurant was not even open or stocked...be carefull they'll take your money into an RSA account before you even enter Moz...and then keep it...even if you could not use it cause it does not excist Nascer do Sol will not see us again.All we wanted was to be treated fair, and at leadt got a deposit back...now we need to engauge with other authorities to get it back

Sir, as mentioned in previous e-mail communication to you, your reservation was done from our website where it clearly explains what our campsite consist of. "For those of you who prefer to "rough it", we also have the campsite which consists of 12 baraccas , 1 large and central lapa as well as a secondary, smaller "kitchen". These thatched wooden huts each have two single beds with mattresses and has 1 electrical outlet each. Bedding is available at an additional cost. The primary ablution facility has two showers and two toilets on both the ladie's and men's sides. There is a small, secondary ablution available with a shower and toilet. Electrical outlets are also available in the central lapa for fridges or freezers. The camp also has a 6 bed hut which is partially equipped and has its own bathroom. The campsite is situated on the beach underneath an umbrella of trees within approximately 30m from the water"." No where do we mention caravan areas and in no correspondence did you ever mention that you are coming with caravans. If you did, we would have told you that we cannot accept caravans. You arrived with caravans (off-road) not with tents as mentioned in your response above. Secondly, our restaurant is open 08:00 to 22:00 daily and is stocked weekly. How can you say that the restaurant was closed and know that the restaurant was not stocked. Please do not put misleading information on this site. The reason we did not refund you is that we did offer you alternative accommodation in our chalets for no additional cost and you chose not to accept this. We were in a position to assist, as we believe in customer service, but you refused assistance.

Just Got Back from a school beach holiday in Chizavane. We stayed at the King Fish Chalet at the Nascer do Sol resort. The 3 double rooms were very comfortable with ensuite bathrooms in all rooms as well as aircons. The kitchen was well equipped, accept for not having a microwave. All rooms had lovely views of the ocean which was a short walk away. At low tide it was excellent for the kids to swim in. At night the sound of the waves could be heard. The kids enjoyed collecting shells, running after crabs, spotting whales and tumbling down the sand dunes. Afternoons had a good sea breeze making kite flying fun! They even had a miniature golf course for the kids to play at. The chalet was in need of some minor maintenance but this did not affect our stay. It was serviced daily by friendly cleaning staff. Fresh fish, oysters, mussels, crayfish and prawns were available regularly for sale on the beach. The beach was very safe as well. A most pleasant stay and we plan to go back.

We were Two couples visiting nascer do sol. We stayed in kingfish chalet . It was clean, service was good from the staff. kingfish chalet was perfect for wail watching. Every morning when we woke up, sat on the balcony and saw the wails playing in the water. There is a restaurant on site. The waiter and barman Orlando gave us excellent service. He was very professional and spoke English. Starfish chalet was a letdown.It was old deco, very cramped and did not have a sea view. It was not the same standard as kingfish chalet. it's better to book the luxury chalets, the location is better then the standard chalets. The only thing we would have love to experience was a boat ride to see the wails up close. Overall we had a great time! Thanks jacques, orlando and staff

The Ferreira family was on their fourth visit to Nascer do Sol, this year the weather was not really on our side, but the staff at Nascer do Sol still did their utmost best to make the stay as comfortable and enjoyable as humanly possible. I have nothing to say about the lodge as everything is still clean, tidy and in working order as always. Thank You, Jacques and Team Rudi Ferreira & Family
