We went to this resort in December 2011, our first trip out of the country. I must say that it was the worst experience of our lives, and it cost us a fortune to boot! No friendlly welcome, inflated prices, dirty pool, annoying quad bikes, no electricity, and by the way you can buy an oil lamp for R75 (paying... More

We went to Tan n biki in December 2011. This was our first trip to Mozambique and we were so very excited!! First of all the road from Maputo to Maraceune, where you take the ferry, is in one word a NIGHTMARE!!!! Traffic rules does not apply to the local people and I would rather drive in Johannesburg a hundred... More

We where there over December 2011 and could not find anything wrong. It was everything we expected and more. Betsie and her crew wen't out of their way to make our stay as pleasant as possible. They even baked a bday cake for my daughter while they had to get ready for a wedding. I just want to thank Betsie... More

We booked the room in advance so the resort should have known we were coming, but from the moment we've arrived the management looked as if they were trying to be champions at ignoring us and make us feel unwelcome. The house we booked is nicely situated in the dunes and gives stunning views on the sea. The house was... More

Very unfriendly management. They claimed that we broke glasses which we definitely did not! Then they made us pay for these glasses in a very unrespectful and unreasonable manner: I still cant believe it that this happened but they called the ferry not to take us if we wouldn't pay these glasses. It was a very unconvenient experience. Dont let... More

A classic example of a wonderful accommodation,but with the most unfriendly staff and management you'll find. We felt treated like we were a major nuisance for staff and especially management. Every question was difficult or unanswerable, working out our invoice was difficult and took forever for management. There were no functioning credit card facilities. Electricity was out more than a... More

This gem of a resort has everything it advertises, plus warm friendly and accomodating owners (Bertie & Lester) and staff, that are always visible and always ready to assist. Spent the Easter weekend camping there ,after moving from Macaneta Holiday Resort which is disgraceful, and had a fantastic weekend. Will definitely be returning soon. Tan N Biki has clean ablution... More

We were really pleasantly surprised. We fell upon this resort on the internet and booked a four sleeper tented chalet. This was accommodation for myself, my wife and my two sons aged 14 and 11. We left our car at the ferry port at a place called Lapa Side. It cost us ZAR30 per day. The ferry ride across only... More

I am just cracking up reading reviews from people that visited tan-n-biki that had negative experiences. First of all, The beach is not a 20 min walk. It's more like a 5 min walk if you take your time to take in the beautifull scenery. (And even then you have to walk really slow. And the road from the river... More
