On the assumption that you are interested in Inhambane province as a
whole, and not specifically Inhambane city, I have found the
following:

“Vilanculos Beach Lodge is a small, exclusive and private lodge  
situated on mainland Mozambique, 5km from Vilanculos Village.    It
lies ±700 km north of Maputo, directly opposite the islands of the 
Bazaruto Archipelago in the tropical Inhambane province. The chalets
are luxury en-suite with either one or two bedrooms. Each chalet is
built on ironwood stilts with raised
mahogany decks and a tasteful combination of mahogany and reed walls.
The chalets
have total privacy and a magnificent sea view.”  Prices vary from $70
to $95 per person per night sharing, depending on dates, with a single
supplement of $22-30.  Includes dinner, bed, breakfast, taxes, airport
transfer if required and all non-motorized sports.

“Palmeiras Lodge is situated on mainland Mozambique 700 Km  north of
Maputo on the beach front in the village of Vilanculos. The lodge
offers two types of accommodation. Chalets: Palm Tree Lodge has five
luxury double bed   en-suite chalets situated in magnificent gardens
with
 a swimming pool and separate dining area. The  chalets are available
for bed and breakfast only.” Prices are $40 per person per night
sharing, and include bed, breakfast, taxes, and airport transfer if
required.  http://www.vilanculos.co.za/palmeiras.htm

Benguerra Lodge, on Benguerra Island. This has 13 thatched chalets.
Rates vary from $ 918.00 for 3 nights to $ 2 927.00 for 10 nights,
sharing, and includes full board, daily laundry, tea and coffee, one
landrover tour, one dhow sunset  cruise, and one snorkelling trip.
