We stayed here for 3 nights, and wanted more. Awesome location, very friendly staff, great food, great view. Dennis is very nice, came and picked us up at the airport, showed us around town, and answered all of our questions. Room was nice, clean and had great atmosphere. We hung out in the outside bar, which seemes to be the... More

What to say? The owner-manager, Dennis, is a great character and a fount of useful information and helpfulness. For example, he'll book your bus tickets and offer other travel advice. But: the place is very scruffy, although clean and cheap, and on weekend nights is rocked, quite literally, by the noise of partying on the street right outside. Now, I'm... More

We decided to stay here after reading lonely planets review and we were very disappointed. The rooms were clean, but very outdated. Water pressure was very low or not working at all and the food was very average and expensive. The worst part was the the noise from the street out in front. Seems this is the place for young...

A friend of mine & I stayed here in May 2012. We chose this place based on the Lonely Planet guide, which said they can help with bus connections & that they are helpful in travel advice. While the staff was friendly, they spoke zero English, and my Spanish/Portuguese, which worked with flying colors in other parts of the country,... More

Convenient location, but not value for money by any means. We selected the double room with shared bathroom. Breakfast not included, shoddy internet, shared bathrooms in poor condition, and rooms simply put, mediocre. Our stop in Inhambane from Tofo to Vilanculos was not planned, so we did not have time to do enough research. Not recommended if you do not... More

This is the best budget spot to stay if you're transiting through Inhambane. We tried several other options first, but the Pachica was the only acceptable option. We stayed in the dorms, which were quiet and clean. The food was very expensive, but the restaurant/porch offers nice ocean views. The real gem was the owner, Denis, who was absolutely wonderful...

Nice little place with great little bar overlooking the water. Rooms are basic but clean and with nets and communal bathrooms. The food is good. The owner was incredibly helpful. He organised the bus to Maputo and somewhere for us to stay and even got up at 4.30 to drive us to the bus station and get us on the... More

This is an OK place, which is a good news, considering that there aren't too many places to stay in Inhambane on the backpackers side. Rooms are indistinct but clean, the breakfast is overpriced.
