Itsandra Beach Hotel & Resort

房間又大又舊 但是應該是最好的了

除了貴，沒什麼缺點

The Itsandra Beach Hotel is a clean oasis in an island country with an enormous litter problem, where any kind of garbage collection is obviously unknown and all trash ends up in the forests, in the sea or by the roads and town streets. Very different from all the other Mascarene Islands. So after exploring the capital of Moroni and the countryside of Grande Comore during the day, we were happy to return to our accommodation, where one can see how the whole country should look like. The Itsandra has its own private little beach, kept clean as well, and only when swimming in the sea by it, one will get touched by floating plastic bags or other refuse. The sunbeds were usually all occupied already, when we went there late afternoon and the water of the swimming-pool didn't look too tempting with the temperature of a thermal spa. Very friendly was the man in charge of the beach area. Unfortunately this cannot be said of some of the other hotel staff, especially at reception (no smiles, no greetings) with the big exception of a young man called Imran, who also did our check-in. First we were offered an upgrade into a bungalow above the pool, but when we asked to have a look at it first we saw that it was more of a downgrade into an old construction with a glass front that didn't open. We preferred to be given the room we had booked, a 'Chambre Supérieure de Luxe avec Vue sur la Mer'. It had a balcony with a great view out to the sea, especially at sunset and over a coastline of black volcanic rocks and a rich green vegetation. In the mornings we could see the fishermen in the water. For a 'de Luxe' room a lot was missing though. It had only one chair in the room and no chairs or table on the balcony. There was only on one side a reading lamp by the double bed. WiFi and A/C functioned well. The bathroom was separated by a glass wall from the bedroom, which we didn't mind, but which might not be to everybody's taste. There was a good choice at the breakfast buffet, but the lady in charge was one more unfriendly person. The place we liked was the bar with a great view over the sea, where we could order good Mojitos and Caipirinhas. Also we asked to have dinner here instead of the big hall with the crowd. Even when there was a buffet only we managed to get - thanks to Maître d'Hôtel - our 'Langouste' at the bar, all by ourselves. Food on all three evenings was excellent and we got to try Comorian specialities like 'Mataba' and 'Pilao'. Compliments to the chef.

I stayed for 5 nights as part of an organised tour (2 before, 3 after) I found the staff to be delightful, the room was clean and the bed was comfy. The beach was clean and welcoming as were the grounds. However, the prices are very high for what you get, the hotel is very tired and is in need of a complete refurbishment. The building works are quite intrusive, for last 2 days we were serenaded by the sound of a pile driver, constantly, for 12 hours! I had no issues with builders in the hotel or watching on the beach as was mentioned elsewhere, they were grafting hard all day. The breakfast is good and the food and drinks are also decent (good job as there's nothing else around) but they are quite expensive. Staff super polite and nothing was too much trouble. I enjoyed my stay.

Very nice hotel in Comores, friendly staff everywhere…Front desk reception, servers, cleaning, kitchen.. always smiling and ready to help, especially MIDILADJ Food was delicious and a good variety. Breakfast as well is good. Hotel a bit old and maybe need some maintenance and renovation but overall wonderful experience and will surely come back. The view is just WOW! Highly recommend if you are traveling to Comores

Convenient hotel with a nice view Overall, the stay was good. My room (505) was quite standard for a business hotel. I liked the natural light and wished the WIFI had been a bit faster. The restaurant was nice but I wished the hotel fumigated the area better. Despite strong winds you’d be bitten by mosquitoes. The service was pretty good, friendly, and the TV had all the Canal+ channels showing international football games. Compared to other facilities I visited in the Comoros this was the best.
