Superb views of the Indian Ocean
The ‘Grande Dame’ is a colonial style hotel based in the heart of buzzing Maputo city
Built in 1922 and recently renovated, the Polana Hotel in Maputo is a beautiful colonial-style building with a range of facilities to suit every guest’s needs. The hotel is situated 10 minutes away from Maptuo’s city centre and the Mavalane International airport. This ideal location gives guests a stunning, panoramic view of the Bay of Maputo.
The Polana’s accommodation is a mixture of refined elegance with nods to Mozambique’s Indo-Portuguese heritage. The rooms in the main hotel consist of exotically carved furniture, rich fabrics and muted colours. The recently refurbished extension, the Polana Mar, has a more modern style of accommodation, with spectacular views of the sea.
The hotel features a variety of restaurants and sporting facilities and offers an array of treatments in their Maisha Spa. Staff can also organise activities such as snorkelling, game fishing, scuba diving and horse riding trips.

Our Difference
The Far & Wild Community...
We think that the best people to talk about an experience are those directly linked to it. Our website and brochures let the ‘real experts’ show their stuff… local experts, travellers & industry insiders. Look out for the coloured markers all around the site... they mean that you are reading something contributed directly by a person from one of these different parts of the community we are part of.
The best memories aren’t simply places and hotels, they are made up of experiences and people… so we connect with local communities, and strive for sustainable travel to make your holiday special
