“We had the best time at Jans 5 Star Camp site. The grounds are maintained beautifully. Im not really a camper but this was the best camping experience ive ever had. The bathrooms, kitchen & electricity at each campsite stand makes a huge difference to having a comfortable stay. We will definitely be back to stay again.”

“We have upgraded Jan's 5 Star to 7 stars. We had a campsite nr 13. The facilities are stunning. The gardens and plants are beautifull. The paving is neat and clean. The grass campsites are just perfect. It is clear that the whole camping site is managed by perfection. The only downside is the locals who gathered in front of the camping sites trying to sell stuff. And the young children begging and shouting at you if you do not give attention. Once again, Jan attended to it. And speaking of Jan, what a caracter. Not only running this facilities with perfection, but walk the extra mile with his clients. Well done Jan. It was an honor meeting you. Dawie and Lizette, Mosselbaai”

“Gorgeous campsite set right along the beach. Lovely pool area and beautiful greenery surrounding everything. Walkable to quite a few nice restaurants and cafes on the beach and in town. Each camp spot is very well equipped and clean with lots of plug points, taps with drinking water and private ablutions with hot showers. Excellent value for money too. Lastly, Jan went above and beyond to help us out with a few things which made our lives so much simpler, for which we are very thankful.”

“The best campsite ever! Can highly recommend. Jan and staff are very friendly and super helpful. Campsites with fantastic private kitchen and ablutions. Green lawns. Beautiful gardens. On beach. Safe and secure. What a find. Book early as this site will get very popular once more known.”

“This is an island style camping site, never seen a camp site in SA like this. We've extended our stay from 10 days to 16 days and would've stayed longer. We've already spotted our stand for our next trip. Jan is a 🌟, Benson assisted with sim/data, the pool is sparkling clean and taken care of twice a day. The luscious green grass, the huge trees and beautiful gardens is like a botanical paradise and a bird paradise. We've met the owner of Aguia Negra, 8 Units, 22-on-Sea and the campsite. Also had a glimpse in his stunning Casa. Stephen McIntyre and wife Suzette, but what a lovely down to earth couple. Jan is hands-on with his friendly employees. Walking distance to the bakery for fresh päos, restaurants, Taurus Supermarcado that stock SA products, receive fresh fruit and vegs on a Saturday. The VIP Spar is a beautiful shop but NOT SA prices. Disappointed in some restaurants, their service and quality somewhat dissappointing. Same goes on prices, one charge you mt150 for a 2M and others mt80. I get the impression there is a local price list and a tourist price lists. We climbed the famous Red Dunes with breathtaking views only 4km away, drove to Archipelago Beach Resort 7km from the main road. Unfortunately it rained the whole day so we couldn't enjoy the resort with its stunning views. Jan jys n ou staatmaker, soms biki kwaai met die werkers LOL, maar hulle ken vir Padron en ons het die lekkerste kerrie hoender by hom ge-eet. Wees verseker jy sal ons jaarliks sien. Dis n plek wa jou siel rus vind. Dankie vir jou altyd vriendelike geselsies en hulp met als. Tot volgende keer, mooi loop. 👍”

“Very comfortable. Each campsite has its own bathroom with shower and toilet. Everything is super clean and well-maintained. The staff is very friendly and helpful. We will definitely come back. One more tip! The Cassa Cabana restaurant is very good. It's about a 2-minute walk from the campsite.”

“We had a wonderful time at the campsite. Everything is very clean, and the pitches are spacious and well-equipped. Jan recommends good companies for excursions and also good places to eat. We highly recommend it.”

“The place has the right name!!! I have never come across its equal in all my years of camping. The rates for such a place are a bargain. We were there with a roof tent and decided to go out to eat. When we started to set up, Jan stopped us and arranged for us a van to take us away and pick us up again at no extra cost. Jan, you will definitely see us again and thank you for the 5 star service and site”

“Never seen a campsite so well laid out, 5 stars! 🤩 The pitches are well-defined and very spacious, on grassy ground. Each one has a block with a kitchenette, barbecue, sink, electrical outlets, and a shower room. The site is guarded day and night. Absolutely fantastic!”

“Very quiet and very clean place. The views are great and everything is very well maintained. They helped us with the laundry service. Jan is amazing, he seems like something out of a movie. Nearby there are restaurants, shops, a pool hall, etc.”

“We camped at Jan's 5 Star Campsite. We can confirm that it is indeed 5 Star! Excellent ablutions on manicured grass and gardens. Place is well maintained. Jan is hands-on, friendly and helpful. The camp is well secured, next to the beach and a nice restaurant. The place has a beautiful swimming facility.”

“Our camping experience at Jan's 5 Star Campsite in Vilanculos was absolutely outstanding. The soft grass stands are beautifully maintained, and having a private kitchen and bathroom at each stand makes camping incredibly comfortable. The sea view is one of the best we've ever had — the ocean is calm and warm, perfect for floating for hours with a pool noodle or lilo right in front of your campsite. The swimming pool is clean, well maintained, and ideal for cooling down on the hotter days. This was truly an awesome holiday. We stayed on stand 36 with a sea view for 25 days and enjoyed every single moment, even the few rainy days. This was one of the best trips we have done so far. We highly recommend Jans5StarCamp to anyone who wants to camp in Mozambique while still enjoying five-star stands, great facilities, and top-level security.”
