Azura Selous is nestled along the Great Ruaha River in the heart of the Selous Game Reserve, one of the largest faunal reserves of the world and a UNESCO World Heritage Site for the diversity of its wildlife and undisturbed nature. Within this vast wilderness, Azura Selous offers an authentic African safari that is stylish and personal.
Azura is owned by Chris and Stella Bettany. They first fell in love with Mozambique in the 1990's and built Azura Benguerra Island in collaboration with the local community. As their own family grew, so did their wishes for more family holidays in beautiful places with amazing experiences, so they added Quilalea Private Island, and more recently their first safari lodge, Azura Selous.
Boating safaris are a calm and soulful way to see African wildlife from a different perspective.
Try your hand at fishing along the Great Ruaha river - a fast flowing river home to a variety of fish - including tiger fish!
Enjoy a romantic private dinner, uniquely set up by your waiter in a different location every night.
Guests enjoy spa treatments on the deck of their tented villa overlooking the Great Ruaha river.
Nature walks with professional guides offer guests up-close and personal encounters with the 'little five' as well as learning about the relationship between flora and fauna and the medicinal values of the plants that thrive in the reserve.
Azura brings a whole new meaning to luxury accommodation in the Selous. The tented villas are a haven of rest and relaxation overlooking the tranquil rapids of the Great Ruaha River and their resident hippo. The unique 'eco-chic' design of the tented villas offers guests something very different and fresh compared to other lodges in southern Tanzania.
