A new eco-resort is opening on the island of Benguerra in Mozambique this week, with a commitment to preserving the environment and “people-focused hospitality”.

Kisawa Sanctuary is the first project for Nina Flohr

Kisawa Sanctuary is the first hospitality project from Nina Flohr, who said her mission with the new resort was “to create a bond between people and place”.

The property sits on 5km of coastline and features 22 bungalows and the Kisawa Residence, while wellbeing is also a key focus, with the large Natural Wellness Center taking prime position.

In its creation, Flohr said she sought to involve and create work for as many people as possible from Benguerra and the neighbouring islands, including local weavers, thatchers, carpenters and textile makers.
