Locally Sourced African Hotels

Mozambique’s Sussurro offers a refined model of eco-conscious hospitality, where sustainability informs every aspect of the guest experience. Located on the remote southern coast, the resort operates entirely off-grid and is powered by solar energy—ensuring reduced carbon emissions while maintaining modern comfort.

From the outset, Sussurro prioritizes responsible sourcing. All materials used in construction and furnishings are 100% sourced from within Africa, supporting regional economies and minimizing transport-related environmental impact. Moreover, the resort is entirely free of single-use plastics, favoring biodegradable alternatives throughout. Culinary practices reflect the same philosophy, with plant-rich, seasonal menus crafted from ingredients provided by local farmers and fishermen. Dishes are prepared fresh daily, celebrating both sustainability and regional flavor.

In addition to dining, guests can engage in low-impact activities such as snorkeling in marine-protected areas, sailing traditional dhows, or exploring untouched island landscapes—all designed to foster a deeper connection with nature while preserving local ecosystems.
