Barra Estates consists of two separate Lodges, known as Barra Inn and Barra Resort, situated next to each other.Barra Inn has a 6 sleeper, a 4 sleeper and two 2 sleeper chalets, sleeping 14 people and Barra Resort two of each, sleeping 24 people. The 6 sleeper units consist of three bedrooms and two bathrooms, the four sleepers two bedrooms and a bathroom and the 2 sleepers one bedroom & bathroom.
The 6 and 4 sleeper units have a double bed in the main bedroom (King size) and all the other rooms have sigle beds. We do not believe in cheap quality mattresses and they are all 20cm. high density foam ones, ensuring a good night's rest. The bathrooms consist of shower, wash basin and toilet. Both Lodges have electricity with electric geysers, so you would always have warm water (not that this is necessary in summer).
All the beds have mattress covers, a fitted sheet, top sheet and a cotton throw and two pillows. Fleecy blankets are supplied for cooler nights. And they are obviously fitted with mosquito nets as well - not the stupid types which tuck in underneath the mattress, but nice large ones hanging from the roof to the floor, allowing ample moving space in and around the beds.
An up-market self catering lodge, with all the facilities and amenities you would need for an unforgettable holiday. The lodge is fully serviced by full-time staff - no dishes, no cleaning, and no making of beds. The lodge consists of 6 chalets and a communal entertainment area. Situated on the beach, it offers a 180 degrees view of the sea. Built in the rustic local style, being cool in summer and warm in the very mild winters.
There are two 6 bed chalets, two 4 bed and two 2 bed chalets:
6 BED CHALETS (6B & 6C ON SITEMAP):
3 Bedrooms, one with a double bed (King size) and the other two rooms have two single beds. All beds have mosquito nets.

ENTERTAINMENT AREA
The communal entertainment area houses a well equipped kitchen, washing area, lounge, bar and ladies/gents toilets with wash basins. It has a lovely covered wooden deck, overlooking the magnificent sea. Have your breakfasts or brunches, lunches and dinners here with your family & friends. Or if you feel like a braai, use the communal braai facilities. Spend your evenings chit-chatting away at the bar, or how about some fun & games in the lounge? This facility is available to anyone renting a chalet.
Chalets can be rented individually or the Resort in it's entirety. It is ideal for couples, families and groups of up to 24 people. Our rates are very affordable and one just cannot have a quality holiday like this at these rates elsewhere.
Area Attractions
If you love the outdoors & action, there are an abundance of activities:
Deep sea fishing: You may charter a fishing trip with the following qualified charters:
Baloo Charters: Gert Cronje
Mafutha Charters: Nick van Huyssteen
Sail-A-Vie: Jannie Moolman
You may also bring along your own boat. Please note that it should be seaworthy - they are checked by the authorities on a regular basis. Ensure that your safety equipment is functional. Lately, you would also need a fishing license - regular checks are carried out by Department
Fisheries on the Beach where boats are launched, so make sure you obtain this beforehand to prevent aggravation and fines. These can be obtained in Inhambane. At Barra, you would have to pay a launching fee which is a once-off fee, valid for 30 days.
Diving / snorkeling: There are an abundance of reefs at Barra and neighboring Tofo. If you have a rubber duck, bring it along for this purpose. The sea is placid enough for rubber ducks most of the year. Barra Reef Divers, Barra Lodge Divers and Sunset Lodge Divers offer diving courses and daily excursions.
Wet-biking / Jetski-ing: An absolute paradise for this sport. With a placid sea you can play all day long. Or go to to White Sands and play on the lake. There you can race to Pansy Island where an abundance of the Pansy shells can be found. Please do not abuse this, and only take a few, so that there would be enough left for generations to come.
Quad biking: Only allowed when used responsibly - this past time has created a menace for holiday makers due to the constant irresponsibility and ignorance of many riders. Our rules are simple here:
