Mucumbli Lodge

The genuine hospitality and stunning cliff top location of Mucumbli Lodge makes it a first choice for nature-lovers. 

Mucumbli Lodge is owned by Italian couple, Tiziano and Mari. They’ve lived on the island for many years and originally built the lodge as a place for family and friends to stay. It is now an eco lodge, made up of wooden chalets, all made using local materials. The chalets range from doubles and twins, to three-bedroom bungalows. All have en-suite bathrooms and spacious verandas looking out to sea. Instead of air-conditioning, the rooms have ceiling fans to keep you cool. Wi-Fi is available in the restaurant.

Enjoy relaxing in the hammocks, or follow the steep path down to the long beach with its dark volcanic sand. Between November and March turtles nest on the rocky beach, and between July and October it’s possible to look for humpback whales and dolphins on whale watching trips. As well as guided walks and guided roca tours, Mucumbli is a great place to hire bikes and it’s great fun to explore the quiet north-west coast on two wheels.

The restaurant at Mucumbli Lodge serves and delicious fusion of Italian and Sao Tomean food.
