Hotels in Madagascar

The place is amazing. Feb 2023 was the second time we went to Constance Tsarabanjina and we absolutely loved it - we stayed 7 nights at a North Beach Villa, all inclusive and were lucky to have great weather even though Feb is supposed to be part of the rainy season. We travelled London Heathrow - Addis Ababa Ethiopia - Nosy Be Madagascar. The hotel arranged for a guide to wait for us at the Nosy Be Airport and took us to the beach where the hotel's boat waited to take us from Nosy Be Island to Tsarabanjina Island (the boat fare is about 1 hour and needs to be paid separately - at the time we went it was 200 euros per person covering both ways). Tsarabanjina is a tiny island with only one hotel, Constance, which has about 24 beach villas (about 12 on North Beach and 12 on South Beach), so even if it were to be fully booked, it would still be quite and relaxing. The atmosphere is so chilled and everybody is trying to make your stay as nice as possible. Staff is friendly and nothing is too much trouble; food is great as nothing compares with the fresh fish and other sea food; beach villa is large, nicely furnished and decorated with amazing views. The hotel offers a range of activities, some included in the price of the stay and some others to be paid separately (but none being too expansive). Activities / facilities included in the price are one snorkelling trip, one boat trip at the sunset with cocktail or fizzy wine, access to their snorkelling equipment, canoe boats, paddle boards, other sports and games; activities at extra price include diving (there is a Diving Centre at the hotel where one can get PADI certified if interested), trip to Nosy Mitsion island, trip to Nosy Kumba island, fishing trip, snorkelling extravaganza trip, massage / SPA, breakfast and / or dinner on the beach.

This place is amazing! The view, the nature around and the smell... It smells like paradise, all the time. Our bungalow was very comfortable and perfectly located, overlooking the sea, orchid trees, albicias... - sometimes you don't even know what to look at, because it's all magnificent. The owners were very kind, easy to talk to and always helpful. Same as the stuff - super nice and patient, even when you're a terribly picky eater like me :) Great spot for snorkeling with many others just 15 minutes by boat. Something I didn't know befour our arrival, is that the diving center can pick you up directly from the hotel! So don't hesitate to chose this remote yet very well communicated piece of heaven :)

I absolutely loved the location, Nosy Faly truly radiates peace and tranquility. Miavaka Lodge is the perfect place to unwind, whether you’re with family, friends, or a loved one. The food was, without a doubt, the best I’ve had in Madagascar...fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The staff were incredibly attentive and made me feel at home from the moment I arrived. There’s a wide range of activities on offer, and Nosy Faly boasts some of the most stunning scenic views of the surrounding islands, including Nosy Be and Nosy Komba. The sunsets from the swimming pool are simply magical, and the house-made rum? Easily the best I’ve ever tasted. To top it all off, I was welcomed with a lovely surprise: a complimentary upgrade to a larger tent nestled in the lush tropical gardens. Every detail exceeded my expectations...I’ll definitely be back!

One of the best hotels I have stayed at in terms of value for money. The quality of the food and drink is excellent and the rooms are spacious and right on a beautiful stretch of beach. Melissa and Manon are exceptional hosts and couldn’t have been more helpful in booking the various activities that I wanted to do during my stay. Merci pour tous!

This is the best place to stay in Anakao. Unlike many travellers, we were coming not after long auto trip from Antananarivo, flying to Toliara instead. So we were not tired and open to everything. This place has amazing relaxing vibe, with everything very well-thought and designed to bring privacy, tranquility and sense of being at the immaculate nature beach part of Madagascar. The other properties at Anakao are too close to the boat arriving site and local village that is very nice to visit and might be eat/drink at local restaurants, but missing the real beach feeling. La Dune des Songes is 20 mins walk away from all that, with the porter guys carrying your luggage. Sea view and sound of waves is just great to get that tropic feeling, the beachfront villa where we were staying in was very comfortable, clean and beautiful. You can see both sunset (sea view) and sunrise (bush view) from your villa, choosing between sofa, hammock, sun lounges or your own bar deck with bar chairs. Food is chef-grade, very exquisite and diverse, also the size of the meals are enough even if you are hungry. You have some choice like fish/meat/veg but you don’t need to think much and this adds to the overall relaxation. Amandine the owner and her staff are super-friendly and ready to do everything necessary to make your stay great. We had terrific boat trip to see the whales and visiting the perfect white sand turquoise sea Nosy Ve onboard of local pirogue boat with motor. Chef was coming with us to prepare the lunch (salad, grilled fish and vegetables with rice), and the sailor guys were very professional, bringing us to see some 5 whales coming out of the water and later to the reef for snorkelling. The way back was under the sail. One more thing to mention are great bar cocktails and decent wine selection.
