Manga Soa Lodge

Manga Soa Lodge isn't just a place to stay; it's an immersive experience that puts you right in the heart of Madagascar's awe-inspiring nature and wildlife. After just 24 hours, we can confidently say that this is the most magical vacation we've ever had. Located right on the ocean's edge, most bungalows offer breathtaking views that make you feel as if you're a part of the seascape. The natural infinity pool isn't just a pool; it's a frame for the living artwork that is the ocean and sky. The lodge only has around 10 bungalows, providing an intimate, familial atmosphere. The staff isn't just courteous; they embody a level of hospitality that makes you feel as if you've been welcomed into a home. But what sets this place apart is its harmonious coexistence with nature. Opening your wooden shutter in the morning is like opening a portal to an enchanting world—where the ocean smiles back at you, diverse animal calls serenade you, and even a friendly gecko may greet you from the ceiling. It's a level of interconnectedness with nature that is seldom found in the western world. Special thanks to the staff and Luc for making our start in this Edenic getaway so perfect. We are ecstatic to spend more days in this slice of paradise and will unquestionably return.

An lovely resort near the airport on the west side of Nosy be. The garden is beautiful and the view of the somewhat rocky beach is fabulous. The food (set meals) is good. The wood bungalows are spacious and well equipped. From the airport it is a 4 km on a dirt trail. There is absolutely no noise from the airport.

Wow! We had an amazing stay at Manga Soa Lodge. You really couldn't ask for more. The grounds of the hotel are meticulously kept with an amazing variety of flowers and plants. The owners and staff are all brilliantly friendly - it was good fun working through the language barrier too. Manga Soa also feels particularly exclusive. We were one of just three couples during our stay. Whilst the sea is rather rocky, the pool offers more than enough space to relax during the day. The spa also offered the best massage my wife and I have ever experienced. Only $20 for a whole hour - very reasonable and truly incredible. The food is also cooked to a fantastic standard. Whilst this may not want to be the place you stay for a week or two, for a few nights it is the perfect place to stay and unwind. We stayed here for 2 nights before a 10 night stay at Constance Tsarabanjina. Since the Constance boat leaves from Manga Soa, it is ideally located and the two hotels communicated well to make sure our transfer was smooth.

Si vous recherché en endroit calme & reposant, alors ce petit coin de paradis « il en faut un par mis tant d’autre » est pour vous et se trouve sur la côte Est de Nosy Be « Madagascar » Implanté au cœur d’une végétation luxuriante, ce petit complexe hôtelier d’uns douzaine d’Eco Lodge, a tout d’un grand. Magali & Guillaume sont là à votre écoute et pour vous conseiller, un personnel d’une extrême gentillesse au petits soin, sans parler de la restauration qui n’a rien à envier à de très bon restaurants Parisiens ou autres. Des excursions vous sont proposé et bien d’autres activités, dans un proche avenir d’autres vous serons proposées (Golf, Plongée, ext. …)

C'est avec grand plaisir que j'ai pu passer deux semaines dans ce petit coin de paradis. Vivre dans les lodges est une expérience très relaxante, on s'endort aux bruits des insectes et des vagues tout en ayant tout le confort moderne. Mention spéciale au restaurant, il est très abordable et l'ensemble des plats proposés sont délicieux. Le personnel est adorable et aux petits soins. De plus, on peut réserver des excursions sur l'ile directement via l'hôtel et ce dernier n'est qu'à environ 25min de l'aéroport.

Nous avons passé 15 jours inoubliables dans un lieu reposant et ressourçant. Océane et Romain grâce à leurs gentillesses, leurs écoutes et leurs conseils, nous ont permis de profiter pleinement de ce séjour. Le personnel (accueil, entretien, cuisine, ménage,...) est formidable et contribue aux bien être ressenti pendant nos vacances. Nous recherchions un endroit naturel et préservé et nous l'avons trouvé sans climatisation et la lassitude des grands hôtels en France, parfois. J'espère que cet endroit va rester aussi beau encore longtemps.
