Kisawa Honoured by La Liste 2025
Kisawa wins the 'Discovery Gem' Hotel Award
Kisawa has entered La Liste! Included as part of the prestigious annual guide and ranking of the World’s Best Hotels, Kisawa was honoured in La Liste’s 2025 Special Hotel Awards.
“LA LISTE Special Awards recognize hotel openings, pioneering hospitality concepts in terms of service, design or sustainability as well undiscovered hotel gems”.
Named a ‘Discovery Gem‘, Kisawa proudly enters the category of “lesser-known and undiscovered hotels that are worth a special trip”.
“True to the meaning of its name, “unbreakable”, Kisawa was created to forge a deep bond between people and place. The vision of founder and creative director, Nina Flohr, it blends local craftsmanship with pioneering 3D printing technology, ensuring a minimal footprint while celebrating Mozambique’s artisanal heritage“.
Thank you to Managing Director, Helene Pietrini and the entire La Liste team for this great honour. And thank you Bernardaud for the wonderful award plate, presented to Nina in Paris and now displayed proudly on Benguerra Island.
