180 kilometers from Maputo lies the village town of Bilene and Praia do Sol Resort overlooking the San Martino Lake. A lagoon some 15km long and 4Km wide, that lies along side the warm Indian Ocean, it's like a mini- Mediterranean in Africa. A sunshine paradise. A rustic beach Escape where soft white coral sand, ice cold beer and warm people make an idyllic holiday spot for the holidaymakers and family vacationers. A-frame, single and double-story structures are built up into the hillside and have balconies overlooking the waters of the lake. All accommodation comes standard with mosquito nets and en-suite shower and toilet. Comfortable mattresses and cotton bed linen are our quality signature and rooms are serviced daily by our friendly staff. Praia do Sol is laid back and relaxing with us is what it's all about, although theres no shortage of things to do with the range of activities that can easily be organised, like dune riding on quad bikes which takes you away for a day and brings you back thrilled and exhausted or try a two hour canoe trip taking you through two smaller lakes, along the river and back into the San Martino Lake until you find your way back to Praia do Sol. Restaurant and Bar All rates are on a dinner, bed and breakfast basis and when you join us for breakfast, lunch or super, you wont be disappointed because our relaxed restaurant is built on Rhodesian teak wooden decking over looking the San Martino Lake. Relax in the ambience of a tropical beach lifestyle and enjoy a delightfully varied dinner menu prepared each evening. Dishes are tasty and well prepared including fresh seafood of course, Portuguese chicken. Fresh fruit, cereals and cooked breakfasts await you each morning and for those who would like a mid-day meal, we have lunch snacks and a mini-pizza oven to satisfy your appetite.
