Located close to South Kotu and fronting the golden sands of Kotu Beach, Tamala Beach Resort is now branded as a TUI Blue hotel and boasts a central palm tree-lined courtyard with its gorgeous pool, ideal for a refreshing swim. As an adult-only property with an on-site spa and ample choice of treatments, Tamala Beach makes for the perfect couple’s retreat.
Set up as an all-inclusive resort, the hotel offers buffet-style dining with an à la carte restaurant by the beach offering views towards the ocean. A range of daytime activities such as water aerobics and yoga are on offer, with fitness classes and a well-equipped gym. Alternatively, choose to relax by the enticing pool, or soak up the African sunshine from a sunlounger on the sands directly outside the hotel.
The rooms received a facelift during 2025 and are modern with a good range of amenities, combining calming colours with an African twist. Some offer a sea view and, for that extra special experience, a number of premium swim-up rooms are available.
Exploring the local area
For a change of scene, South Kotu has a small selection of bars and good value restaurants and it's only a short walk along the beach to Kotu, where you'll find further beach bars and hotel restaurants. The nearby, busier resort of Kololi offers a wide range of places to eat and drink, as well as nightclubs and a craft market, and is only a short taxi ride away.
No children under 16 are allowed.
