Eastern Madagascar
Betsileo Country Lodge
A great option to break the long (nine hour) journey between Isalo National Park and Ranomafana. Betsileo Country Lodge is located just five minutes from the Anja Community Reserve, with its high concentration of ring-tailed lemurs, the primary attraction here. The interesting town of Ambalavao, home to the country’s largest zebu market, is less than a ten minute drive away.
Betsileo is in a wonderfully picturesque setting with a lovely atmosphere, boosted by the friendly and welcoming staff. Standard rooms are in the main building, with detached bungalows available also. The bungalows have two bedrooms and a private veranda. All room options are simple but comfortable, and have en suite bathrooms. There is complimentary Wi-Fi and an outdoor swimming pool. Refreshing drinks and tasty home-cooked food are served in a bar and restaurant in the main building.

A wonderful trip which would have been very difficult to put together to a similar standard ourselves. Would definitely consider another R&R holiday! Un grand merci!
