Situated opposite the Antainambalana River on the edge of the town of Maroantsetra, and with views towards the beautiful rainforested island of Nosy Mangabe, the new Manga Beach Hotel offers one of the best locations and also some of the best accommodation in town.

The staff provide friendly hospitality and accommodation is in smart and well-presented but simple rooms. There are 13 standard rooms and 4 slightly larger rooms which can accommodate 3 people with 1 double and 1 single. All the rooms have air-conditioning, comfortable four poster beds with mosi nets and orthopaedic mattresses and anti-allergy bedding. Other room facilities include a minibar, safety deposit box, storage cupboard and a small balcony with views towards the river. Each room also has a separate bathroom with 24 hour hot water and electricity and there is free Wi-Fi throughout the property.

Downstairs is an excellent a la carte restaurant serving European, Malagasy and Chinese cuisine and next door is a snack bar with large terrace also owned by the hotel for light snacks, drinks and occassionally live music in the evenings.

Manga Beach offers comfortable accommodation for an overnight before or after exploring one of the wild parks or reserves in the area such as the Masoala National Park or Nosy Mangabe Special Reserve. The hotel is only around 8km from the airport, so roughly a 30 minute drive.

I feel the tour was immensely enjoyable, well-constructed and gave a good overview of eastern and southern Madagascar. [Our guide and driver] are to be commended for their attention to our needs at all times. [Our guide] was outstanding – he couldn’t have done more to make our holiday better. I would have no hesitation in recommending Reef & Rainforest.
