One of the best and possibly the most expensive hotels in the area, by the sea.

We spent four nights at Polana Serena. We expected very good service as it is a 5 star hotel. But it does not quite live up to this standard. Regardless if it was the room service (rooms were not perfectly cleaned up, the do not offer service for shoes cleaning) or the bar, everyting was okay, but far from luxurious. Overall an acceptable experience, but not spectacular.

We count ourselves lucky that we got ‘marooned’ in such luxury during a sub tropical storm! A very tastefully refurbished colonial era hotel with many period features. Large rooms, well equipped. 2 dining rooms, one a good buffet and the other looks like five dining, though we preferred the variety of the buffet. In this hot, humid climate, the internal air conditioning is a bonus. There are outside covered terraces with ceiling fans. Ask about the rather hidden Spa - gym and secluded pool included in room cost, and paid- for massages etc available.

A stunning colonial style hotel with beautiful views. We stayed for four nights. The staff friendly and helpful. The food in the main restaurant, was delicious! The buffet dinner we had was plentiful. Kudos to the chef. Enjoyed the bar too. Very clean room with comfortable bed & beddings. A nice big pool to just relax and read/swim. Loved our stay.

Staying at the Poland Hotel - the esteemed Great Dame of Maputo - is always an absolute delight. Normally, everything goes smoothly and exceeds expectations. However, on this particular occasion, I must admit that I found it a bit disappointing. There were some issues that arose during my stay. Firstly, there was an unfortunate amount of noise emanating from the staff in the upstairs corridor, which required me to politely request their consideration not once, but twice. Secondly, the toiletries in my room remained frustratingly depleted for consecutive two days. Lastly, the tranquility of enjoying a serene sunset on the balcony was unfortunately interrupted by a rather boisterous event taking place in the ballroom. It appears that the management of this esteemed establishment must invest some effort in restoring the hotel to the elevated standard that we have grown accustomed to.

This hotel is a gem. Colonial style, beautifully restored. Location is fantastic, the view breathtaking, olympic size pool with ocean view. Main restaurant offering very good breakfast buffet. Staff is very friendly and helpful, but some lack proper training which is the only really minor downside.
