Meva Guesthouse

My family and I stayed at Meva several times during our trip to Madagascar and every time we returned, it felt like coming home. The staff were so friendly and welcoming, and the cook Felama made us amazing food. We stayed in the family room which is huge, like its own apartment with a deck overlooking the large garden (with tortoise-lawnmowers!) Meva feels like a little green oasis in the city, but it is also in the middle of a suburb where you can buy anything you might need. We only walked around the neighbourhood during the day but it felt very safe. Highly recommend this place! We would love to stay here again. FYI: The owners of Meva, Ramartour, also run École Lodge just outside of the city, which we also loved. It's a more quiet rural experience but still close to the airport. (Ramartour offers very reliable and safe airport transfers to both Meva and École Lodge).
