Western Madagascar
Le Camp Amoureux
Situated in Marofandilia village, an hour’s drive from the Avenue des Baobabs and 1.5 hours from Morondava, the camp is the most comfortable accommodation within reasonable proximity to Kirindy. The simple dome tents on covered, raised wooden platforms have outdoor en suite lavatory, basin and bucket shower. Unless one wants to stay within Kirindy itself to benefit from more potential wildlife experiences, this is the best option in the area. The camp has its own private reserve which, although rewarding, does not compare to Kirindy for wildlife, especially fossa.
Facilities
Bar and dining room in a two-storey building; private nature reserve
Local Wildlife
In the private reserve one can see some wildlife, but not nearly as much as in Kirindy Reserve (see Kirindy section)
Optional Activities
Daytime and nocturnal wildlife walks in the small private reserve and nearby Kirindy National Park.

Area Specialist
The road from Morondava to Maronfandilia is accessible only between April and December. The camp’s name comes from nearby intertwined baobabs which appear to be embracing each other. It’s best to arrive at the Avenue des Baobabs either at sunrise or sunset for great photo-opportunities.

“It was a fab trip. Everything went very well in Madagascar. All the local guides were really good but special praise goes to [our guide] at Andasibe – so knowledgeable and interesting. He, like all the guides, showed a real love for the wildlife and environment. Excellent wildlife: highlights – fosas in daylight within 10 mins of the first rainforest walk, diademed sifakas, golden bamboo and ringtailed lemurs and giraffe necked weevil.
