Nosy Tanikely National Park

Manga Soa is as close to paradise on Earth as you will find! It is a friendly, French-managed small lodge set in the most exhuberant tropical gardens imaginable! Every tropical flower & plant are found here. The managers, Roman & Ocean, are a competent, friendly can-do couple who can handle any request. Their staff is impeccably trained, yet friendly & personable. We loved the French-inspired food! With tasty tropical touches, every meal was a delight! The chef's brioche rolls were scrumptious! This is the perfect paradise! Each oversized bungalow is masterfully made from local hardwoods with true island touches. We loved the huge bed with crisp, cool linens. Lying in bed looking out over the Indian ocean is true luxury! The beach is beautiful but not always swimmable with the low tide. Ask Roman to arrange for their boat to take you to a reef or one of the nearby islands! Don't miss having a massage or 2! Prices are so reasonable & the ladies are very knowledgeable! We loved everything about our stay here and were treated like VIPs! It is a shining gem on Nosy Be. The road is now paved & it's a smooth & easy trip to the airport or Helleville.

Great location, great food, beautiful hotel but they can improve on entertainment (which was mostly in Italian and paying for water when you have paid for all inclusive did not make sense. The entertainment team was great (even though they mostly spoke Italian. 10/10 for Jamica- great singer we enjoyed our daily sunset sessions and Samuel was a great entertainer- very good with clients. Christina at reception was also great- did all they could to accommodate our requests. Suggestion is to get English speaking people at reception as well as we struggled to communicate with everyone when Christina wasn’t around. Overall it was a good holiday.

Can there be any more beautiful place than this? Unsure but we were amazed and speechless once we entered the villa. Our awesomeness and surprise was priceless. We could live there forever. It is simply HUGE, so beautifully decorated, the design of all the villas, and that private infinity pool at every villa is mesmerising. The sunset every day and then that night sky, with the Milky Way fully visible. The staff is awesome! So friendly, helpful, such a super quick communication over whatsapp. And the restaurant, what can we say! We enjoyed breakfast and dinner every day! During lunchtime we were away doing tours. But the menu and the food, that great quality. And the cocktails by the restaurant and main pool side and beach. You will always be my top favorite property ever! Thanks for making our stay that unique and memorable
