I really enjoyed the stay. Everything was perfect, I felt at home. The breakfast is delicious, all very fresh and tasty. The room is very comfortable, pillows very fluffy, everything clean and cozy. The house has a very beautiful decoration. I really loved it, and I would like to stay there on my next mission. Hugs.

Oh my God, I had a fantastic ride! Joli’s team is extremely surprising. I enjoyed the security, breakfast, pool and decoration in the room. Really loved it. Thank you for the good personal treatment. I will be back soon.

Cheri van Staden
The most beautiful Guesthouse I have stayed in for a long time! The rooms as well as the entire Guesthouse are tastefully decorated with all necessary amenities. Clean, crisp and chic – the space is amazingly decorated. With wifi in all spaces, it was great to be able to get online when necessary too. The pool area is huge and very relaxing! The perfect base for a trip to Maputo, close to the main strip and beautiful restaurants, Joli is situated in a quiet, safe area. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The breakfasts were amazing too!

Joli’s guesthouse is the bomb!!! My sisters and I travel to Maputo once or twice a month and we’ve been to many hotels but we’ve never came across an accommodation of Joli’s standards, whereby everything it’s on point. From the area where it’s situated to the hospitality. Good breakfast, nicest staff including the owner, the place smells nice and very clean, beds are comfortable, every room is specious and refreshing. Architecture goes with the times we are in – very stylish!!! Joli’s is my second home definitely. Thank you guys and keep it up!
