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!

The staff were fantastic, helpful and incredibly friendly. They helped us with any travel issues we had and ensured we were well provided for. The rooms were comfortable with a fan and the view was incredible. It’s right by the national park and the hotel arranged a tour guide for us for a fantastic and fair rate. The food was also fresh and delicious

The staff were amazing, they took care of us not just the night we stayed in the hotel but all the days we came for food and drinks.

Tropical paradise. The resort is accessible only by boat and up against a national park with lots of lemurs. We were there for five days, four nights in a beachfront bungalow with private facilities. Sun lounges under coconut palms. Local seafood at the restaurant. Hardly any other guests. Affordable for budget travelers.

This is one of the loveliest hotels we have ever stayed in - we were fortunate enough to have the whole place to ourselves, which really added to the magic and tranquility. Gerard, the GM, was very attentive but not over bearing. We didn’t realise quite how in Lokobe Nature Reserve it was. We saw a sportive lemur on our first night in the hotel grounds and the common black lemur the next day. Completely wild; not fed by the staff. The infinity pool over looking the jungle/sea is so special. The hotel felt wild and in nature but at the same time super clean and welcoming. The food was delicious, one or two options only but every meal we had was delicious and very good value. Simple breakfast but was enough for us. Really just a fantastic stay. I only wish we could have stayed longer.

I can't even describe the feelings and memories that I have now after the stay in Villa King Kombo and on Nosy Kombo itself. The villa is just as you imagine a villa somewhere on an exotic island. Absolutely clean, cozy Malagasy design. Huge and comfortable rooms and I just absolutely loved the concept that during the day you can open all of the windows and feel like you are outside. But at night you can close everything completely. The view from the lounge zone is just to die for. The Villa is a 10 minute walk from the village where you'll find all the restaurants. The coral reef is just in front of the villa and you can easily swim there in the morning when the tide is low. But the most important thing apart from all of that is Dominic who is in charge of everything in the villa and Steven - the owner. They made me feel like an absolute special guest. Not in every 5 star hotel you get the same care of the customer. Steven and Dominic arranged for me a trip to Nosy Tenikely and Nosy Fali. Both of those trips were absolutely amazing. Dominic was there to organize and help me with literally everything I was planning to do. Even before I'd decided anything Dominic already had an answer and the best suggestions. And Steven was on line with me 24/7. Being the best owner of a hotel I met in my entire life. And Dominic being the best manager! I'm 1000% coming back to Villa King Kombo. The thing that happened to me the next morning I flew to Tana is when I woke up I thought "God. Why not on Villa King Kombo". And even now I'm writing this review from Delhi, India it feels like I'm literally there right now. Absolutely magical experience and magical place. Thank you Steven and Dominic for everything! There is only one thing. You have to get used to screaming lemurs in the evening. Because there is a huge lemur family that comes to the tree next to the Villa. But once you get used to it - you'll miss that sound.

Jean-Michel, Florida and the whole team are very helpful and kind. For example, we asked Jean-Michel in an email that we would like to stop at a "supermarket" to buy few things during our transfer from the airport to Doany Beach. He said okay. And soon he sent an email that he had noticed we would arrive on Sunday afternoon when shops are closed and offered that he buys what we need if we send a list, Wow. Doany Beach is beautiful with its white sand beach (no trash only shells) , crystal clear ocean in front of you, no dangerous currents, beautiful corals and fish for snorkelling (it is easier to find them in low tide). And there are no other tourists, maybe another family as guests. We could see sunrise even from our bed, we only had to open our front door facing to the ocean at 6 am. Brown (female) and black (male) lemurs are coming each evening or sometimes in the afternoon. We got bananas from the staff to make lemurs eat from our hands and let us stroke them (except their tails). As there are no shops or markets, you eat what you get. But do not worry, meals are perfectly delicious and sufficient and as a bonus, you eat in the garden with ocean view. Weather (sunny, 29-30 C, no rain during the day) and the ocean temperature were great. Doany Beach has filtered drinking water. We had no problems with WiFi. There is hot water in the bathroom. You may ask for how many night you should book. It can easily be one week. Lokobe Reserve is in walking distance, Jean-Michel came with us to show the way. It is worth checking Doany Beach's own website, where you see many boat tours offered (e.g. Lemurialand+Mont Passot+Andilana beach, Tanikely, Sakatia, Komba, Iranja, etc.). There are also many other program possibilities, like fishing, water skiing, face painting. You also see the prices on the website. Boat trip price is usually for the boat and not per person. For our family of five, these prices were unbeatable. Watch our Youtube videos.

We had such a lovely stay at Tamarin Lodge. The location of the bungalows is fantastic, being walking distance to some local restaurants and the local market. The staff are super friendly and helpful. Special mention must be made of how beautiful and lush the garden area is and if you’re lucky you’ll spot some lemurs in the trees above. Thank you for a lovely stay

This is a magical retreat. We would recommend it without reservation to anyone.

Amazing experience. Excellent staff, Incredible location.....and, of course...the lemurs...!! Antoine is a brilliant host, he couldn't have been more helpful. Makako Lodge is highly recommended.
