Anjiamarango Beach Resort

If you are looking for a peaceful and secluded accommodation with everything you need, you have found it! This is the ideal place for a perfect getaway where you don't have to worry about anything. The hospitable owner Philippe and his wife Lhaika will take care of all your wishes without any trouble. From the first contact via email, I knew this was THE place. Despite the usual internet issues, Philippe promptly answered all my numerous questions and even personally arranged a ham radio license for my husband to broadcast from Madagascar, which is usually not the easiest procedure. From landing at the airport to the takeoff of our plane back to Europe, everything was excellently taken care of. Organized transportation was waiting waiting for us at the airport, and upon arrival at the resort, we were greeted with a refreshing welcome and a brief introduction to all the activities they offer. Even though we don't speak a word of French, we were able to communicate in English with almost everyone without any problems. The bungalow is simply furnished but has everything you need. During high tide, it is about 10 meters from the sea, and during low tide, about 300 meters away. It is cleaned daily, towels and bed linen are regularly changed. Every late afternoon, the staff comes to draw the mosquito nets - so you don't have to worry about that either! Amazing sunsets... Breakfast is good, everyone finds something for themselves. Their fresh fruit juice is divine! Sometimes things run out, especially if you like to sleep long, but you have to keep in mind that you are in Africa and life flows quite differently... You need to order lunch and dinner in advance. The staff will find you a few hours before the meal, either on the beach, in the bungalow, or by the pool, to take your order and ensure you are served as quickly as possible. You don't need to look for restaurants on the island, as the food at the resort is fresh, tasty, and very affordable - I recommend daily fresh seafood and the zebu steak. Before arriving at Nosy Be, I was quite worried about the weather, as there is a rainy season at this time of the year. The worry was unnecessary; in 17 days, we only had one rainy morning and one cloudy day. It mostly rained at night, but everything dried up by morning. The main advantage was that there were no crowds at all the excursions and tourist attractions - we were almost alone everywhere, so we had a truly authentic experience. However, the rainy season also has some disadvantages - due to significant nighttime rainfall, the sea in front of the resort is quite murky and very, very warm, making it a bit less attractive for swimming. But the solution is the pool, which is well-maintained and clean and just the right size for a refreshing dip. You can spend quite a few pleasant hours on the comfortable loungers in the natural shade by the pool. You can also borrow kayaks and paddle about 300 meters to the colorful coral reef.

Nice, airy beach front bungalows on a quite beach. Good mosquito net. Friendly and helpful staff. Simple breakfast, lunch and dinner to order. Great bar area with pool table. A nice relaxed place to start or end your travels in Madagaskar away from the other crowded touristic beaches. Due to the more remote location no restaurants or shops in walking distance.

Fabulous hotel. The big aloes are perfectly situated and you can hear the sea. The pool is great with nice seating area around. The restaurant and bar serve great food and drink and everything is reasonably priced! Amazing stay. Thank you Philippe!
